Tryptophan is a rare, complex building block for proteins that acts as an essential nutrient and chemical signal in living things, serving as the foundation for serotonin, melatonin, and niacin production. Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) occurs naturally in many plant and animal species. There were studies where rats with their pineal glands removed that suffered cardiac arrest, their brains still produced it (2019 study led by researcher Dr. Jimo Borjigin at the University of Michigan). It can cause you to experience reality from a third person point of view and make you have ego death. DMT hallucinations are speculated to possibly be real (https://scienceblog.com/a-new-theory-says-dmt-entities-might-be-real-and-proposes-how-to-test-it/). DMT might not be a hallucinogen in the sense of psychosis or dreams. Users report extra spatial dimensions, non-Euclidean curvature, the unnerving sense of viewing a tesseract turning in 4D. 3D can see no further than 4th dimension, which is spacetime. Outside that we can't see. DMT might be a portal into higher planes of existence.
