Dr. Walt Miner further explains how unique and powerful LSD drug is and says that the most unique thing about LSD is effective dose of the material.

Dr. Miner takes one drop of human blood from a tube and says that this one drop contains 330 million cells and in comparison to that the weight of LSD to produce its effect is equal to the weight of two blood cells.
