1st attempt at dmt extraction and hopefully NOT killing myself

I will be reviving 1 lb of mimosa hostilis inner rootbark, whole, in the next few weeks.
I smoked a mix of DMT labeled as changa, it is freebase dmt crystals that have been mixed with slightly chopped up MAOIs to enhance the effect. Had an awesome time and wanted more dmt, but did not want to pay the high prices.
I found several teks that seem really complicated, ive found some that talk about "fat" washes. I found one in particular that i want keen to try as it seems simplistic enough, i am just slightly concerned about the use of hydrocarbons in the naphtha to pull the dmt from the basified liquid. The full tek can be found (http://pastebin.com/X1pkdC8k) there
the TLDR version of it basically seems to break down into mix lye and water to 13.5 ph drop in roots let dissolve/mix it up pour in naphtha mix it up let settle pour naphtha off let evaporate scrape dmt crystals off the pan once dry
done
With naphtha being highly carcinogen i am concerned about getting lung cancer from smoking this, or worse. Has anyone tried to use this specific tek? has anyone that has any expierence in organic chemistry able to chime in?
I really do not want to kill myself, i just want to visit DMT land once a year or so and via one or two extractions attain a near lifetime supply for personal use.
Is there a better tek to follow?

If you must worry about it, then you should be more concerned about the lye than the naphtha. Try a wash by dissolving the DMT crystals in anhydrous acetone (do a evap test to check), then mix up with a small amount of activated carbon, filter, then follow by a slow evap re-x. Crush up and dry your final crystals to ensure that all the solvent has been evaporated.
Or check out Q21Q21's food-safe tek: it only uses white vinegar/distilled water for acidification, pickling lime for basification, and d-limonene (citrus extract) as the non-polar solvent.

Naph is a highly carcinogen?
It's possibility a carcinogen... But in high enough amounts, many things are in the same category... It's not a known human carcinogen... I am not sayin large amounts of it over many days is good for you but really.... Let's get real here...
When the US National Toxicology Program (NTP) exposed male and female rats and mice to naphthalene vapors on weekdays for two years, male and female rats exhibited evidence of carcinogenic activity....
I would say, don't smoke Naph every day for two years....

You can look up the LD50s (amount needed to kill 50% of test subjects, for various animals) on the MSDS for all the chemicals used in the extraction/re-x process, for example naphtha: Naphtha MSDS which specifies an acute oral dose LD50 of 5g/kg for mice. Of course this doesn't mention carcinogenic impact over time, but just be prudent when you do your evaporation/re-x.
