Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has revealed a secret weapon in his personal arsenal that's helped him continue playing at a high level in the form of a plant-based psychedelic called ayahuasca. According to the Milwaukee Detox Center, ayahuasca as a tea can make one experience “a dream-like state and hallucinations, making you feel your emotions very intensely”. Additionally, it promotes “a conscious state of mindfulness that lets you examine your thoughts and emotions from the outside". 

But for fans who are concerned about the NFL MVP potentially getting in trouble with the League with this latest reveal from the enigmatic quarterback, they needn't worry. 

Per the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel: 

"According to league spokesman Brian McCarthy, any trace of the substance in his system would not trigger a positive result under the substance abuse or performance-enhancing drug policies.

The league and the player’s union collectively bargained a drug policy that prohibits a long list of substances, but since ayahuasca isn’t on it, there’s no reason why Rodgers would be in violation of either policy."

That takes care of that! Groove on, Aaron!
