In Mexico, the only place in the world where the ingestion of morning glory seeds has an established tradition of shamanic usage, a hallucinogenic dose is said to be only thirteen seeds, a ritual amount based on religious numerology rather than chemical analysis."

The seeds of the plant have been mentioned to contain up to 0.5% of lysergol, an ergoline alkaloid also found in other Ipomoea and fungi from the Claviceps genus. [6] Patents filed by the company Farmex describe the use of this plant for the production of such alakaloids, [7] even though the industrial relevancy of these processes is questionable when compared to other means of production.
One known case involved a suicide that was reported in 1964 after ingestion of morning glory seeds. [81] Another instance is a death due to falling off of a building after ingestion of Hawaiian baby woodrose seeds and alcohol. [82] A study gave mice 3000 mg/kg with no lethal effects.

The seeds of A. nervosa contain ergot alkaloids varying considerably in concentration with LSA weight ranging between exactly similar looking seeds from 3 μg to 34 μg (avg 17 μg). [17] However, in its effects, LSA is about one tenth as potent as its cousin LSD , making a threshold dose level for LSA (D-Lysergic Acid Amide) about 500 μg. [ 18 ]
Lysergic acid, also known as D-lysergic acid and (+)-lysergic acid, is a precursor for a wide range of ergoline alkaloids that are produced by the ergot fungus and found in the seeds of Argyreia nervosa (Hawaiian baby woodrose), and Ipomoea species (morning glories, ololiuhqui, tlitliltzin).
[143] [144] The practice of using sub-threshold doses is called microdosing. [145] Dosages of LSD are measured in micrograms (μg), or millionths of a gram. In the mid-1960s, the most important black market LSD manufacturer ( Owsley Stanley ) distributed LSD at a standard concentration of 270 μg, [ 146 ] while street samples of the 1970s ...
The Nahuatl word ololiuhqui means "round thing", and refers to the small, brown, oval seeds of the morning glory, [5] not the plant itself, which is called coaxihuitl (“snake-plant") in Nahuatl, and hiedra, bejuco or quiebraplatos in the Spanish language. The seeds, in Spanish, are sometimes called semilla de la Virgen (seeds of the Virgin Mary).
