(On the street, it’s also sometimes called “bath powder,” “herbal incense,” or “plant food.”) What makes the term “bath salts” more confusing, though, is that name is used for a surprisingly large number of different chemical combinations. And there are other equally misleading names, too, such as “bath powder” and “plant food.” To understand what the drug does, think of “bath salts” as a cross between meth and acid. Like cocaine, meth, and speed, bath salts work by stimulating the central nervous system, kicking it into overdrive, if you will. But the drug is also seriously hallucinogenic, like LSD. The key ingredients that go into bath salts are the synthetic compounds MDPV (3,4-Methylenedioxypyrovalerone), mephedrone, pyrovalerone, and methylone. But there are many other ingredients used in addition to these, or in place of them. For example, many of the “bath salts” seized have been found to contain extremely high levels of caffeine. |

I'm only human, it's my biggest flaw. We must all realize a sink a chair and a pillow are all luxuries of home and a soldiers helmet takes the place of all three. |

They will charge you with cocaine possession and you can spend 6+ weeks in jail till the lab results come back with what the drug really is. I lost my bro to this stuff.

Some people get their magnesium by adding epsom salt to their bath, or get their iodine by painting it on their skin. I wouldn't try to bath with the designer drug bath salts, because it might mess with your body. It all depends on how much your system sucks in from the bath water. |
