The human body has natural defenses against DMT - they are called MonoAmine Oxidase. Their role is to destroy the DMT as soon as it gets inside the body, whether it it released by the pineal gland or whether it it taken from the outside.
When you ingest DMT, it takes a long time for it to get to the brain, because it has to go through the digestive system. During that time, normally, The MAO destroy all the DMT, and none of it makes it to the brain. When you smoke DMT, it is a much faster route to the brain so the MAO don't have time to destroy it all - but they do after some time. That is why the DMT experience is so short-lived.
The role of the MAOI (MonoAmine Oxidase Inhibitor) is to keep the MAO from destroying the DMT. It makes it possible to ingest the DMT and have it come to the brain intact.

How long does a DMT trip last?
Smoked Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) causes a "trip" that lasts about 10 minutes with a full hour to be completely back to baseline. Oral DMT must be combined with a maoi. With oral usage, the trip lasts significantly longer but is usually accompanied by severe nausa
What drug give you the strongest high?
Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) is produced in the brain of humans and other animals, and there is speculation/theory DMT contributes to near death experience phenomenon (people claiming they "saw the light") However DMT is also avalable on the street. About $160/Gram. In terms of the amount of a chemical needed to cause reaction, LSD (Acid) gives the 'strongest' high. But in terms of the intensity of the high and the potential/limits, DMT wins on all fronts. DMT can be vaporized (harsh on the lungs) snorted/injected (similar high, however i shy from needles) however taken orally the drug requires you to take an MAOI before hand or you dont get full (if much of any) effects, and taking an MAOI before any other DMT trip will lengthen the high and raise it's potential. (but be careful of dangerous active ingredients in drugs containing MAOI's.) happy tripping :D
Will you pass a drug test after taking ayahuasca?
Yes. Absolutely yes. There are two types of chemicals within the ayahuasca brew, an MAOI (which, in the brew, is found in Banisteropis Caapi) and DMT (the plant which provides this changes), which is what causes the hallucinations. Both of these occur naturally within the human body. If you had to take a drug test specifically for DMT, they may be able to determine it in large levels, but the only way you would have to do that is if you have a possession charge for DMT specifically.
