Abstract in brief

The study used public health indicators and a self-administered questionnaire to assess the health, psychosocial well-being, and lifestyle of long-term ayahuasca users in Spain, finding positive perceptions of health and healthy lifestyle habits among participants.
Long-term ayahuasca users reported reducing their use of prescription drugs and scored higher in personal values, suggesting potential benefits for public health and personal development.
The research concludes that controlled, respectful use of ayahuasca in community settings can be integrated into modern society, offering possible health benefits, and introduces a new approach to studying the long-term effects of psychedelic drugs.]
