It is know since a long time that morning glory seeds contain LSA.
Also LSA is different from LSD. While you can legally get the former it is (from my experience) way more dangerous than LSD.

That is not necessarily related to the compound but the method of consumption. Natural sources of psychedelic compounds have, naturally, variances in potency. With Morning Glory seeds you also ingest some other probably pharmacologically active compounds, again in amounts that vary from seed to seed.
LSA distorted my perception of object sizes and made me very nauseous.
I took it once in high school. HBWR seeds. Scraped the nasty stuff off the outside. Fell asleep while waiting for it to kick in. Woke up intoxicated. Puked. Went back to sleep
What happened ? I took LSA (both top-choice morning glories and HBWRs) about 20~40 times. About half to 1/3rd were "blank shots" (when you feel almost no effects). I even re-peaked once.
Very unpredictable, but it was always less, never more intense trips. The fact I took top-of-the-shelf seeds might have to do with that. It's better to take 10 HWBR from Ghana than 50 from Hawaii (may have god mercy upon your soul if this is the case).
Also ipomea vs HBWR is as different as sativa vs indica.

This is one of the givens they were working off of. The finding of the research is the fungus that produces the LSA in the seeds.
