Question
Hello. I tried doing a websearch to find this out for myself, but what is a parachemical, and how is it different from ordinary chemicals? Please let me know. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Mr. Jason Goldman

Parachemistry is the same as alchemy, just a new name, you know the idea of turning lead into gold by some process was the historical big thing alchemists tried to do. So a parachemical is either the chemcial that changes or the one it is changed into. I have heard both. Goggle search alchemy and you will find hundreds of sites. Here is one or two to start you.
