it is real, and upon a glancing view at the structure it kind of resembles the structure of some hallucinogens. (dmt, psilocin, mdma)
but a lot of the functional groups are wayyyyy different. in fact, all the functional groups are different.
i doubt its actually hallucinogenic.
but its definitely a real compound.

Imagine if you were to eat a human brain, and due to eating the brain, you absorb all the person's DMT, causing you to have a Level 11 DMT trip that lasts for days 
That sounds intense......
Maybe a little too intense....

Well if you ate DMT the enzymes in your stomach would destroy it before it crossed the blood brain barrier so you wouldn't get high and as far as I know there is no proof that the human brain produces DMT.

Its actually really common drug and it isn't in any way recreational. Adrenaline is adrenaline when its in the body and epinephrine when it is outside the body.

the fear and loathing scene which depicts an adrenochrome experience makes me wonder if they're actually alluding to DMT. Both are sort of obscure serotonergic compounds, and they both induce short yet intense experiences. i think him picking adrenochrome, as apposed to creating a fake name for a fake drug, was some kind of hint to substance that was even more obscure and 'undergroun' when the book was published. maybe he figured the curious ones might do some research and find out for themselves and the rest wouldn't understand. i could be wrong.

I heard that he just wrote it in because of the novelty of it, and if you read up on it, well if you did the type of dose he does in fear and loathing you would probably walk away with schizophrenia or something, its really really bad for you.
oh and if you ate someone's brain you probably wouldn't get much or any dmt (for one thing you'd need an maoi of course) and research isn't quite sure about it yet anyway, they know you have melatonin and the building blocks of dmt and dmt comes out in higher concentrations in schizo's urine but they don't really know exactly what it does, where it forms, etc
their have been cannibals that ate human brains, and they didn't trip out

They talk about it in the commentary for the the movie. about hwo funny they thought it was that all of a sudden these kids starting bragging "oh yeah, Ive done that shit a few times, crazy fucking shit bro"...
