Heard of Salvia???

Salvia is a hallucinogenic member of the sage family also known as "Magic Mint" or "Sally-D" that can be smoked or chewed. This article form Newsweek delves into the sale of salvia and its growing popularity among youth.

Some states are now considering banning the substance or criminalizing its sale or possession. Luckily the Virginia General Assembly acted on this information during this year's session and Salvia is now a controlled substance, listed as a Schedule I hallucinogenic drug.



Is this a well-known substance among youth in your community?
