I know that Hofmann ingested LSD hundreds of times before his death. He studied morning glory, psilocybin mushrooms, and salvia as well. While I don't have any sources stating directly that he tried these substances (because I'm too lazy), given how he studied LSD one can infer that he took these as well.
Didnt he take one last hit as he died? I believe I read that somewhere but I cant remember.

Anyway he did use it all his life and died at the age of 100 so thats proof of what little bodily damage it does


i heard the same thing, could you imagine what a mind blowing experiance that would be?
