Question: You talk of snakes and venom very generically but I would suppose that it is certain venoms that are psychoactive and that rutin and other anti-venoms are effective against certain venoms and not others. Have you considered how the geographical distributions of such snakes and such anti-venoms might play into your theories?

On emailing academics about this sort of thing (speaking as someone who has been on the receiving end of many an email purporting to contain the Truth about how the Universe works that Big Physics doesn't want us to know): I'd recommend avoiding sending full article drafts and instead either ask a small number of bullet-point questions or try to talk them into a chat ostensibly about their work where you may be able to naturally include this. There is so much garbage out there, a draft post can very easily be drowned out by noise.
