Amarulax

Synopsis:
A very valuable neurotoxin that masques ethanol , but breaks down at fermentation or body temperatures .
The ultimate weight-loss aid .

Discussion :
Amarulax forms in the amarula fruit just before ripening , then degrades afterwards as temperature rises due to fermentation .

It is a potent neurotoxin , that locks onto the same receptor sites as alcohol .
Both on neurons and mitochondria .

But it degrades very quickly with higher temperatures , like body or fermentation .

Why ?
Evolutionary reasons :
Plants manipulate mammalian neural systems to promote their propagation . Semi-successful systems are opium (poppy) , caffeine (coffee ,tea) , chocolate(cacao) , cocaine(coco) , etc .

All of these have undesirable effects both from the plant's and the animal's viewpoint .
But the original , evolutionary smoothed chemical evolved in Africa .

Amurulax .
An endorphin promoter , that degrades rapidly with temperature .High endorphins masques as drunkenness . (Exaggerated feedback loops) . The memory remains , and animals want to repeat it . Ideal for plant propagation , but for animal survival as well.

Why release this information ?
Amarulax can be refined and molecularly tweaked to give an extremely addictive drug . But we already have many of those .
Amarulax can be equally used as a breaker of addictions .
The benefits outweigh the disadvantages .

So have joy of it .

At least it is not truffles .
