Think of it like peyote, a cactus that southwestern American Indians chewed on. It has hallucinogenic properties, and when you chew it, these are released in the juices. Topa root is actually a root from a native plant that the Topa chew on during their ceremonies and meetings, as it can bring on spiritual experiences, much like similar drug uses by native peoples in a number of countries.
