Best Answer

Salvia is a genus of several hundred differrent plants. Salvia species are used for cooking (Sage), medicine (Dan Shen), and ornamental flowers (Salvia nermorosa, etc.).

Salvia divinorum is an herb used by certain cultures during visionary ceremonies, and medicinally as well. In recent years it has caused a bit of a stir due to the misconception that S. divinorum is a recreational drug. Although some misguided individuals do use it for such purposes, this is not the norm. A dozen or so US states and a few EU countries have already banned Salvia divinorum as a result of this undeserved hysteria. Salvia divinorum is not in any way similar to any recreational or "street" drugs.

Salvia is a leafy psychoactive plant that is commonly known for causing psychedelic experiences. As part of the mint family, Salvia divinorum has its originating from the roots of good old Sierra Madre Mountains in Oaxaca, Mexico. They use the plant for healing and spiritual purposes by the Mazatec indigenous peoples. saliva can be bought online.
