In the Grape scented sage description, what does "Thought to contain the same psychotropic compound found in diviners sage (S. divinorum)" mean? Not tested and not known, or less concentrated?Richard Dufresne, a collector of Salvia species, writes in his self-published "Salvia Placard Handbook" (1997): "Reputed to be medicinal by Tarahumara Indians. May contain Divinorin A, a psychotropic agent found in S. divinorum." On what he based this statement Dufresne does not give any further detail. Divinorin A is better known as salvinorin A, the hallucinogenic active compound found in Salvia divinorum, the well-known divinatory herb used by the Mazatec Indians of Oaxaca State in Mexico.
