Psychoactive – meanings and definitions

Psychoactive refers to substances or drugs that affect how our brain works and cause changes in awareness, perception, moods, thoughts, consciousness, behavior, or feelings.

When speaking of psychoactive (or psychotropic) substances, we refer not only to things like nicotine, caffeine, alcohol, or marijuana but also to specific pain-reducing medicines.

Illegal drugs and substances such as cocaine, heroin, amphetamines, and LSD also fall in the category of psychoactive substances.

So psychoactive drugs are substances that affect our mental processes when we take them into our system. They influence or affect our cognition.

Psychoactive substances do not necessarily imply that they are dependency-related, but usually, the term is related to substance abuse or drug use.

The main component of MSG is an amino acid called glutamic acid or glutamate, which you can find naturally in foods that are rich in protein such as poultry, meat, aged cheeses like Parmesan, seaweed, soy sauce, and ripe tomatoes. Many Asian chefs add it to foods in the form of MSG, a cheap crystalline powder that they use to replace salt. A famous Asian MSG brand is “Aji-No-Moto” that has been around for many years.
