microdosing, what and why?

A microdose is a low dose of a psychedelic that can be included in your daily routine to increase your level of creativity, focus and energy and reduce stress and anxiety.

You only take a fraction of a normal dose so it does not resemble a "trip" experience at all and you will certainly not experience hallucinations.

psilocybin
Psilocybin provides most of the effect of magic truffles. The use of psilocybin goes back thousands of years and has been used traditionally by indigenous cultures around the world. These cultures usually used psilocybin in the form of mushrooms. The easiest legal way to start your microdosing journey is with psilocybin-containing truffles.


Effect on neuroplasticity

The number of studies suggesting that psilocybin is effective is increasing. This is because it has an effect on neuroplasticity. Neuroplasticity is the brain's ability to recover and adapt to the environment. The brain does this by creating new brain cells.



Reasons why people microdose include:

  • Getting into the flow more easily at work, hobby or study
  • Improved concentration and focus
  • Staying in your creative flow longer

Protocols, How often should I microdose?

Several microdosing protocols are known.
The most well-known protocol for microdosing is the “Fadiman Protocol”.
The founder, James Fadiman clearly pointed out that this protocol is mainly to observe the effects of microdosing in the body. It can help you distinguish between microdose days and days without a microdose.

  1. Fadiman protocol
    We believe that James Fadiman's protocol is a good basis for the first microdosing experiment. This protocol is based on a 3-day cycle, for 4 to 8 weeks. Try this microdosing schedule for at least a month to find out if it's right for you.
  • Day 1: Dosage Day
  • Day 2: Transition Day
  • Day 3: Normal
  • Day 4: Dosage Day, etc

  1. Fresh Mushrooms protocol
     In addition to James Fadiman's protocol that is based on a 3-day cycle, there are many people who maintain a 2-day cycle. There is no law for microdosing. Try this microdosing schedule for at least a month to find out if it's more appropriate for you.
  • Day 1: Dosage Day
  • Day 2: Dosage Day
  • Day 3: Transition day
  • Day 4: Normal
  • Day 5: Dosage Day, etc

  1. Intuitive microdosing protocol
    Microdosing in an intuitive way, with the only rule that you always leave at least 1 day between the microdoses. People who have followed one of the aforementioned protocols once often switch to a more intuitive way of microdosing. Microdosing is used when it suits them or when it suits the type of work that has to be done that day.

  • Day 1: Dosage Day
  • Day 2: Transition Day
  • Day 3: Normal
  • Day 4: Dosage Day, etc
