“Using a back-of-an-envelope calculation, since LSD was banned in the late 1960s possibly 100 million people have died prematurely from alcohol abuse. They were denied a treatment with some strong evidence. And even if LSD had helped only 10 percent of them, that would have saved 10 million lives.”

“Johnson’s research shows that psychedelics have the potential to revolutionize quitting smoking. If psychedelics hadn’t been banned, it seems likely that this use would have been discovered much sooner, and many millions of lives would have been saved.”
