Natural plant products have been used to promote health, prevent sickness, and treat various ailments. These products often consist of leaves, flowers, bark, roots, seeds and/or other parts of the plant. Many of the pharmacologically active constituents of these products are known, but the pharmacology of these constituents may not be fully elucidated. Natural plant-based products are also available in various forms other than the raw plant material. A wide array of commercial products such as capsules, powders, extracts, and electronic cigarette (e-cigarettes) electronic liquids (e-liquids) are readily available and can be purchased from various outlets, both store-based retailers and online. Newer e-cigarettes are often advertised as “heat not burn” and are used for “vaping” various forms of extracts including “waxes” and “dabs” and raw plant material. A single manufacturer was found online selling “24 different herbs” in powders, extracts or e-liquids. These were advertised as “legal in the USA” and each product listed multiple effects. Eight e-liquids, six extracts (resins), and four powders from eight different “herbs”: African Dream, Areca Nut, Blue Lotus, Damiana, Kra Thum Na, Kra Thum Kok, Klip Dagga, and Wild Lettuce, were purchased. An advertisement for these products stated, “Most people use the leaves, powder or resin in vaporizers”. Direct Analysis in Real Time AccuTOF™ Mass Spectrometry (DART-MS) was used to identify the psychoactive components in the natural products. The psychoactive compounds that were identified in only two of the eight e-liquids, three of the five resins and three of the four powders were arecaidine, arecoline, coumarin, entadamide, mitragynine, 7-hydroxymitragynine and nuciferine. Psychoactive and potentially harmful substances were present in the powders and resins of the natural products. The newer types of e-cigarettes made for consuming natural products may increase their abuse potential.
