<\/figure>\n\n\n\nKdo byl Albert Hofmann?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Albert Hofmann byl \u0161v\u00fdcarsk\u00fd chemik, kter\u00fd je zn\u00e1m\u00fd p\u0159edev\u0161\u00edm jako \"otec\" diethylamidu kyseliny lysergov\u00e9, kter\u00fd s\u00e1m<\/em> je nejzn\u00e1m\u011bj\u0161\u00ed jako LSD. Provedl pr\u016fkopnickou pr\u00e1ci o vlastnostech LSD a dal\u0161\u00edch psychedelik, jako jsou nap\u0159. psilocybin<\/a> z magick\u00fdch hub. Jeho v\u00fdzkum p\u0159isp\u011bl k pochopen\u00ed lidsk\u00e9ho v\u011bdom\u00ed a ovlivnil obory neurov\u011bdy, farmakologie a psychologie. Byl tak\u00e9 katalyz\u00e1torem celosv\u011btov\u00e9ho z\u00e1jmu o psychedelika. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Lysergic acid diethylamide, is a psychedelic substance synthesized from a fungus called ergot<\/a>. It is renowned for its ability to cause profound changes in perception, thought patterns, and mood. It is categorized as a hallucinogen<\/a> due to the trippy visual effects it can induce. However, these effects can vary based on dosage, setting, and the individual user.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ergot is a type of fungus that grows on grains such as rye. Its effects, both medicinal and toxic, have been zaznamenan\u00e9 v historii<\/a>. Ergot alkaloids harbor potent psychoactive and vasoconstrictive properties, which is the reason that the fungus has been both utilized and feared since time immemorial. These compounds occur naturally within the fungus.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s first recorded use is from the Middle Ages, but there are numerous hints of its use in earlier history, such as the suggestion that ergot was part of the secret psychoactive concoction kykeon <\/em>kter\u00e9 sta\u0159\u00ed \u0158ekov\u00e9 pili b\u011bhem Eleus\u00ednsk\u00e1 myst\u00e9ria<\/a>. However, more often than not, ergot was accidentally ingested, as it grew on grains used to make bread \u2014 a staple food throughout much of human history. This could cause symptoms ranging from nausea, to gangrene, to death.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Albert Hofmann was busy studying the medicinal potential of these ergot alkaloids when he first synthesized LSD in 1938. He had been tasked by Sandoz Laboratories in Switzerland to develop a stimulant for respiration and circulation. Although on first discovery LSD was not considered significant, Hofmann had a funny feeling that there was something special about the compound, which encouraged him to return to the substance in 1943. This led to the now-celebrated events of Bicycle Day.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n LSD users report experiencing changes in their perception of time, space, and logic, as well as visual and auditory hallucinations. They also experience heightened emotional sensitivity, euphoria, and introspection, sometimes leading to spiritual revelation. The effects of LSD, or the \u2018trip\u2019, can last from 6 to 12 hours, depending on various factors, such as dosage.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n LSD became synonymous with the counterculture movement of the 1960s and 1970s, its reach extending to music, fashion, art, as well as political and societal change. After being outlawed for many years, research into its benefits is back on track with studies showing that it has the potential to treat a wide-range of mental health conditions. These include depression, PTSD and anxiety.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, why Bicycle Day? Why not \u2018LSD Day\u2019? <\/p>\n\n\n\n Well, with LSD up until pretty recently being designated ‘dangerous’, not to mention illegal by the powers-that-be, that title probably wouldn\u2019t have flown. So, to get past the censors, Bicycle Day cleverly refers to Hofmann\u2019s iconic bike ride he took after ingesting LSD on April 19th, 1943. It started off as a bit of a codename \u2014 if you zn\u00e1t <\/em>pak vy zn\u00e1t <\/em>????. <\/em>Nesm\u00ed se zam\u011b\u0148ovat se Sv\u011btov\u00fdm dnem j\u00edzdn\u00edch kol, kter\u00fd ka\u017edoro\u010dn\u011b p\u0159ipad\u00e1 na 3. \u010dervna.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n But what was so special about this infamous bike ride?<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, on April 19th, 1943 Hofmann decided to ingest 250 micrograms of LSD, having accidentally felt the effects while fiddling about with the substance a few days earlier. April 19th is observed, rather than the date a few days earlier (16. dubna)<\/em>, proto\u017ee to bylo poprv\u00e9, kdy bylo LSD u\u017eito a z\u00e1m\u011brn\u011b.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Po po\u017eit\u00ed LSD (and not yet knowing that 250 micrograms is a very high dose!) <\/em>Hofmann began to feel the effects quickly \u2014 within 40 minutes.\u00a0 Thus began an unprecedented psychedelic journey. The great Albert Hofmann was first to feel the profound effects of LSD that would change the world forever.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Later, Hofmann would describe experiencing extreme visual distortions, intense colors, and high levels of anxiety. By this point, he knew he had to return home as soon as possible. However, as it was still wartime, no cars were allowed on the road, so the humble bicycle was his only option. Accompanied by his lab assistant, Hofmann hopped onto his bike, and Bicycle Day began!<\/p>\n\n\n\n B\u011bhem j\u00edzdy Hofmann za\u017e\u00edval intenzivn\u00ed psychedelick\u00e9 \u00fa\u010dinky. Jeho vn\u00edm\u00e1n\u00ed sv\u011bta bylo v\u00fdrazn\u011b zm\u011bn\u011bno, jako by se jeho v\u011bdom\u00ed odd\u011blilo od t\u011bla. Uv\u00e1d\u011bl, \u017ee m\u011bl pocit, jako by se vzn\u00e1\u0161el nad zem\u00ed. V\u0161echno, co vid\u011bl, bylo v pohybu, barvy a tvary se p\u0159ed n\u00edm pohybovaly a mihotaly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Despite this sensorial overload, Hofmann managed to get home, encouraged by the simple familiarity of riding his bike. The journey took around two hours, and once home, Hofmann sought help from a doctor. Being the patient zero of LSD, he could have no idea whether what he was feeling was a threat to his life, or just a hallucination. After being reassured that his vitals were normal (krom\u011b roz\u0161\u00ed\u0159en\u00fdch zorni\u010dek a zjevn\u00e9 zmatenosti) <\/em>he was able to relax, and lean in, to what he was experiencing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As the effects of the drug wore off, Hofmann began to realize LSD\u2019s potential as a tool to explore consciousness and enhance the human experience. He felt a deep sense of connection to the world, and a profound gratitude and appreciation for his existence. He believed this wonder could be used for great things. In an interview by Marlene Dobkin de Rios in 1996 Hofmann explained;<\/p>\n\n\n\n \"D\u00edky zku\u0161enosti s LSD a nov\u00e9mu obrazu reality jsem si uv\u011bdomil z\u00e1zrak stvo\u0159en\u00ed, n\u00e1dheru p\u0159\u00edrody, \u017eivo\u010di\u0161n\u00e9 a rostlinn\u00e9 \u0159\u00ed\u0161e.
