What Exactly is Blue Lotus?

Blue lotus (Nymphaea Caerulea), also known as sacred blue lily, Egyptian lotus, and blue water lily, is a water lily that is known for its distinctive blue color.  Historically significant, as its uses date back to the days of ancient Egypt, it’s rich in desirable properties thanks to its unique chemical composition, and its purposes are both recreational and therapeutic. 

Blue Lotus may offer may different health benefits and is also classified as a psychoactive substance, meaning that it can get you High. Binoid offers high quality Blue Lotus Vapes and Disposables for great pricing. Binoid is the first to have Blue Lotus Vapes and are taking the market by storm. 

What is Blue Lotus Used For?

Blue lotus flower is used both recreationally and therapeutically, as we said earlier, and the compounds responsible for its most desirable effects are:

• Apomorphine: A dopamine agonist, which means that it can boost levels of dopamine, a “feel-good” neurotransmitter, while potentially easing symptoms associated with certain neurological disorders.
• Nuciferine: An antipsychotic compound that can instill a feeling of calm, and thus, may address symptoms associated with erectile dysfunction.

Blue lotus is classified as a psychoactive substance, meaning that it can produce a high.  The high is dose-dependent, and interestingly, it’s believed that taking too high of a dose can result in zero psychoactive effects, so it’s not like cannabis in which the more you take, the higher you feel.  The high is described differently by different users, but overall, it’s believed to offer a mood-boosting buzz and a warm, fuzzy sensation in the muscles that’s sometimes compared to a cannabis high, only milder.  The most commonly described effect of the high is euphoria, and relief from anxiety/stress.

The plant has been used for its benefits for thousands of years, as well, although sadly, research on those possible benefits is actually really limited – it’s not like cannabis, for instance, which has been researched for clinical use for decades.  What we do know is that the plant is high in antioxidants including quercetin, myricetin, kaempferol, and flavonoids.  Also, people describe feeling relief from physical discomfort after taking it, largely because of its effects on dopamine. 

Another thing that blue lotus may offer is the ability to “lucid dream” – in other words, taking blue lotus before bed may allow you to be aware of when you’re dreaming, and control the dream’s narrative.

Is Blue Lotus Safe?

Now comes another important question: is blue lotus actually safe to consume, or does one need to be careful to avoid serious side effects?  Here’s the thing: there’s no recorded safety data on blue lotus yet.  The FDA does label it as a poisonous flower, although they don’t distinguish the dosage that could cause poisonous effects.  Meanwhile, it’s important to keep in mind that people have safely and successfully consumed blue lotus around the world for thousands of years – and many Americans consume it regularly today.

We don’t know what kinds of side effects are associated with blue lotus, but that’s also a positive.  People aren’t talking about side effects simply because they aren’t experiencing any.  No side effect profile has been determined for the flower, and generally, it seems to work gently on the body.  One thing to keep in mind is that it is intoxicating, and so it can cause impairment, which is why it’s best to avoid driving or engaging in any kind of risky behavior after taking it.

We also strongly urge you to avoid mixing blue lotus with most other substances.  It likely has interactions with alcohol and certain medications, though no clinical data has been published on any interactions yet.  As for mixing it with cannabis, that seems to be okay – in fact, lots of people infuse cannabis flower with blue lotus. 

Also, in order to feel more at ease in terms of safety, you should only purchase blue lotus products from a reliable source.  And, even before all that, have that initial talk with your doctor in order to make sure that blue lotus is right for you.

Is Blue Lotus Legal?

Blue lotus flower is completely legal in the United States under federal law, despite the FDA determining it as “poisonous.”  And, it’s legal in all 50 states, with the exception of Louisiana, in any product form or concentration.  Basically, as long as you live in a state other than Louisiana, there really is nothing stopping you from purchasing and enjoying it however you’d like, so that’s great news.

What Kinds of Product Types Does Blue Lotus Come in?

Blue lotus Flower is available in a variety of product types, each providing its own purpose in terms of overall bioavailability and just overall satisfaction:

• Essential Oil: Essential oil of blue lotus is used for aromatherapy, and for making fragrances.  It should not be consumed orally, as essential oils are far too concentrated.

• Tea: A tea made with dried blue lotus flower has been a popular method of consumption for thousands of years.

• Blue Lotus Vapes: Blue lotus vapes – disposables and bottled oils – are pretty new, and offer a super-fast-acting, powerful delivery method that can give you more of the psychoactive effects.

• Hemp Flower: Hemp flower infused with blue lotus flower can be smoked, vaporized, or used to make edibles at home, and offers full-spectrum hemp’s effects in addition to blue lotus.

• Gummies: Blue lotus gummies offer a quick and easy way to ingest the flower and introduce its effects into your system.

• Tinctures: Blue lotus tinctures contain an extraction of the flower mixed with a carrier oil, and even can be administered below the tongue.

Again, despite these uses, it’s unknown if blue lotus toxicity or drug interactions can come about.  Also, avoid going over the recommended dosage instructions on the product’s packaging.
