Psilocybine microdosage Protocols | Ultimate Guide

Microdosage of psilocybin is increasingly recognized in the world for its real benefits in many fields such as depression, dependence ... Many talk about its advantages, while others use it discreetly. Some still feel a little nervous and unsatisfied.

For those who are more hesitant, it is necessary to understand exactly its effects and the exact dosage routine. Unfortunately, the microdosage is a little more subjective than you think.

Microdosage protocols: the ultimate guide

I often hear that the dosage is all, and that could not be more true when it comes to substances psychoactive.

THE microdosage is a term used for compounds psychedelic like the LSD or psilocybin to a dosage that Do not "hover".

The ideal dosage quantity depends on each person and can also vary depending on the circumstances of current life, also called Sweet spot "Ideal dose"

He is constantly debated what exactly is the feeling of a "Sweet spot"? Is the microdosage frequency just as important?

The types of microdosage procedures vary in frequency and complexity.

In this article, we will present 7 microdosage protocols Different, some of whom you may not have heard of yet.

What is a microdosage protocol?

A microdosage protocol is a predetermined program to take doses of sub-sail (so as not to hover) of psychedelic substances to improve well-being, creativity or performance.

To be described as microdosis, it must also be weak than a tenth or a twentieth of the full dose or even recreational.

There are several types of microdosage protocols. Each of them requires a different level of competence.

• The protocol Fadiman is ideal for beginners.
• The protocol of Stames Combines psilocybin with Lion mane and niacin (for more advanced microdosors).
• The protocol Microdosis Includes specific days of the week.
• The intuitive protocol is intended for those who feel very comfortable in their Sweet spot.
• The protocol Nightcap is intended for those who prefer to take microdoses in the evening before bed.
• The protocol Asha Sultana Combines saffron with psilocybin to improve mood.

Proceeding of a mushroom microdosage experience

• Dose preparation: Mushrooms are generally taken in the form of truffles, which better controls the dose.
• The recommended dose is generally between 0.1 and 0.5 grams of dried mushrooms.
• Taking protocol: The most common protocol is to take a dose on Monday, then leave a few days of break before taking the next dose, for example on Thursday. This avoids addiction.
• Effects sought: With these microdoses, users report lighter effects than during a classic hallucinogenic dose, such as an improvement in mood, creativity, concentration and connection with the environment.
• Duration of effects: The effects generally last between 4 and 6 hours, less than with a higher dose of LSD for example.
• Precautions: Although safer than high doses, microdosage still has potential psychological risks such as anxiety or paranoia. It is therefore recommended to start with very low doses and to avoid potentially dangerous activities afterwards.
• Monitoring and adjustments: Users can gradually adjust their dose depending on the effects, still remaining in the recommended range. Some may also vary on socket days to find the most suitable protocol.

The microdosage of hallucinogenic fungi aims to obtain profits without the intense psychedelic effects of a classic dose, but still requires precautions.

Microdosage is not necessarily a practice for life

• Many people who practice microdosage note that the frequency and the dosage tend to decrease With the time.
• After a 12 -week first cycle (6-8 weeks of microdosage followed by 4 weeks of break), people often adopt a more intuitive protocol, with punctual and reduced doses.
• THE "Sweet spot"Dosage also tends to change, with lower doses during the following cycles.
• This suggests that profits microdosage initials can persist without require a practical has long term.
• Anecdotal relationships of community members indicate that microdosage can cause effects secondary positive involuntary as a decrease of anxiety, of aggressiveness, etc.
• These observations suggest that the microdosage is not necessarily a practice for life, but instead A tool To initiate lasting changes. Dosages and frequencies tend to adjust over time.

Microdosage does not seem to be a necessarily permanent practice, but rather a means of initiating positive long -term transformations. Users' reports indicate that microdosage requirements generally decrease over time.

1. The Fadiman Protocol

It is the most famous microdosage protocol and has been developed by microdosors from around the world.

James Fadiman is a well -known name and a pioneer in psychedelic industry. The story tells that in 1961, Ram Dass would have offered him magic mushrooms in a Parisian cafe.

Barely six years later, Fadiman became the youngest researcher of the International Foundation for advanced IFAS studies, a rather neutral name for a center funded by the private sector for the study of psychedelic drugs.

Although the Food and Drug Administration strikes his door and gives him legal documents, Fadiman continues to persevere. He undertook to collect data from more than 400 micristributors in 59 countries. These reports sent by email represent the largest non -clinical microdosage study available to date.

Hundreds of user anecdotal reports have helped create what we now call the Fadiman protocol, and it looks like this.

What is the Fadiman protocol calendar?

Fadiman's protocol is to microdose on days one and four. It will look like this:

Day 1: First day of microdosage
Day 2: Off Day
Day 3: Off Day
Day 4: Second day of microdosage

Repeat for 4 to 8 weeks, then take a break of 2 to 4 weeks.

The table above assumes that you have already familiarized yourself with the Sweet Spot "the ideal dosage". The correct dose, in addition to sufficient time between the microdosage days, is where magic operates.

It is also important to ensure that at least two days ago between doses.

The first day after microdosage Do some call the day "after the shower". A moment when the remains of the previous dose of psilocybin still persist.

The second day after microdosage Do we call a "normal" day. This is when your system is restored at your unique homeostasis level.

The Fadiman protocol is affordable, measured and constitutes an ideal routine for any beginner in microdosage, we often use the term beginner's protocol to underline the fact that it is one of the best microdosage protocols to start your trip.

This protocol guarantees that there is a long enough break between doses to allow the contrast between normal days and microdosage days. This is extremely important to understand the advantages of microdosage in your life.

2. The Stams Protocol

The second best known microdosage protocol is the Stames protocol.

This protocol is more intense and for some less comfortable than the Fadiman protocol. It includes a combination of truffles with psilocybin, a functional fungus nootropic, as well as an essential vitamin.

Paul Stamets is the famous Netflix mycologist. His appearances in the Joe Rogan show and the documentary recently released Fantastic Mushrooms Quickly make him a familiar name.

His personal history with psychedelic is completely fascinating and has probably contributed to his specific microdosage protocol. First of all, this protocol is intended for intermediate and advanced microdosors and is not ideal for beginners.

The stumes protocol includes more than a fungus as well as an essential vitamin B. The combination of several compounds is what is called a "stack"Stack

This protocol consists in combining the consumption of psilocybin (in the form of mushrooms or truffles), lion (non -psychoactive) and niacin (vitamin B3) mane.

Stames hypothesizes that this "stack"Special supplements can have a number of potential positive effects on the brain and our brain health.

The theory is that the potential effects mainly imply the creation of new neurons (neurogenesis), new neural routes and even the repair of existing neurological damage.

Why was niacin added to the battery?

Niacin (vitamin B3) has been added to the battery to increase the availability of the active compounds of the fungus throughout our body.

Niacin opens blood vessels and therefore has the capacity to stimulate the peripheral nervous system, potentially extending the nootropic advantages of other supplements.

This opening of blood vessels is called rinsing. It is a blushing of the skin, itching and/or a burning sensation which starts 10 to 20 minutes after the start of the protocol and usually lasts at most 40 minutes. This is an important part of the practice and should not be avoided.

THE "flush"Of niacin is not a comfortable experience, but it dissipates less than an hour after its appearance. Again, it is a more advanced protocol, please consult a doctor before continuing.

"Flush" rinsing helps improve blood circulation and stimulates the dilation of small blood vessels. Niacin is the delivery mechanism which guarantees that the beneficial properties of fungi are absorbed throughout the brain and the body, and are not limited to absorption in the central nervous system.

Since the Stacking Protocol Stacks is more intensive than regular microdosage protocols, it should not exceed one month. A period of reset of two to four weeks (no psilocybin, no niacin) is highly recommended thereafter.

What is the stames protocol calendar?

The stames protocol consists of four days of work and three days of rest. It will look like this:

Image source: https://doubleblindmag.com/

Day 1: Truffle microdosis + lion mane + niacin
Day 2: Truffle microdosis + lion mane + niacin
Day 3: microdosed truffles + lion mane + niacin
Day 4: microdosed truffles + lion mane + niacin
Day 5: Lion mane
Day 6: Lion mane
Day 7: Lion mane

Important : Truffles and lion mane are generally consumed in the morning on an empty stomach. Then, 20 minutes later, vitamin B3 niacin is taken.

Taking these substances in stages ensures that fungi are already part of the digestion process and that niacin can operate its magic.

Repeat this cycle for a maximum month. It is recommended to take at least a break of two to four weeks after finishing a one -month cycle.

As can be seen in the table above, the Lion's Mane mane can also be consumed on weekends.

Dosage of the stames protocol:

According to the stumes protocol, based on a 70 kg person, the following doses are indicated:

• Psilocybine truffles: 0.5 - 1 gram
• Erinacins/Lion mane hedgehogs: 50 - 200 mg
• Wait 20 minutes then ...
• Niacin: 100 - 200 mg (stack, see below)

3. Pro microdose protocol

The main drawback of the Fadiman protocol is that a microdosage cycle consists of three days (1 day of walking, 2 days of rest), which means that if you start the protocol on Monday, the following week, you will start on Wednesday . This can make it a little confusing.

With the microdose pro protocol, you can choose to microdose only on Mondays and Thursdays. These days are not uniformly distributed due to the odd number of days in the week.

In this case, some prefer to choose the days of the week in advance for the concern of planning and consistency. It is easier to remember whether this is a microdose day or not with the MICODOSE PRO protocol.

4. Intuitive protocol

By definition, this protocol is only defined by you and is therefore adapted to your specific needs. You decide when microdose and use your intuition as a guide.

The intuitive protocol has only one rule: you always leave at least one day between microdose days.

People who have followed a microdosage protocol for a cycle or two tend to naturally move to a more intuitive microdosage method.

After a few cycles of the Fadiman protocol, many microdosage users find that they naturally go to a more intuitive approach. Over time, we learn to notice how we feel and what is the right time to microdose.

The example I often use is that if I tend to forget my microdosis, I probably don't need it.

If I find myself looking for it and looking for it, then it's probably the right time to start again. Any microdosage protocol means by definition that there are periods of rest between the two.

5. Nocturnal protocol

The protocol "Nightcap " is intended for those who prefer to take psilocybin microdoses just before bed.

The night dosage protocol can apply to the Fadiman protocol or any other protocol in theory. The dosage days remain the same, except that the dosage time is just before bedtime instead of the first thing in the morning.

The difference between the microdosage at night and not in the morning is that we feel five different brain waves during the day.

Our brain enters a state of TheTA wave just before we fall asleep and just before we woke up and we are again fully awake.

Theta is also the state of our brain when we almost automatically go to a familiar place, but that we do not remember exactly how we went there.

Optimizing this state of brain waves thanks to the properties neuroplastic Psilocybin can be deeply beneficial.

Until now, the advantages of microdosage just before bedtime are based on anecdotal relationships, because there is currently not enough research.

Microdosage users indicate a significant improvement in the quality of sleep, waking up by feeling refreshed and bright while avoiding the slight nausea that some may feel during the microdosage of the psilocybin.

6. The spice protocol

THE saffron Acts on receivers 5HTP And can be an excellent complement to improve mood.

A 2018 medical study revealed that:

"One of the most established discoveries concerning the benefits of saffron is its antidepressive activity. Clinical trials have been carried out to assess the effectiveness of saffron in mild to moderate depression. Studies have reported that saffron is more effective than Placebo and at least equivalent to imipramine and fluoxetine therapeutic doses. "

Eating a few strands of microdoser saffron in the morning can potentially improve your mood in a fairly surprising way.

How to add saffron to your microdosage protocol? Combine it with the Fadiman protocol or intuitive protocol.

Whether you have microdosis every three days like the Fadiman protocol, or microdosis certain days of the week, saffron is an excellent addition to one or the other protocol.

Saffron can be found in any grocery store and only a few strands are necessary. It can be chewed, but if the taste is too bitter, it can be added to drinks/creams ...

7. Protocols of functional mushrooms

In addition to the stack stumes, more and more people add other functional fungi to their microdosage routine.

Instead of simply stacking with the lion mane when we make the stames protocol, here we also combine mushrooms like the chaga, THE reishi and/or cordycepts with psilocybin.

There is a synergy that becomes available when mushrooms are combined. Our bodies welcome their potentially curative compounds and work together in a transparent way.

Chaga, reishi, cordycepts and lion mane has potential effects so specific but overlapping that adding them while taking psilocybin can be an excellent ally for optimal health.

What do the functional mushroom tables look like?

Functional fungi can be taken daily without interruption, 7 days a week, and are applicable to all the protocols selected in the list above.

Based on our belief in the advantages of combining functional fungi with psilocybin, we have created our own Mushroom Essentials complex. A product that combines Chaga, Reishi, Cordycepts and Lion's Mane in practical capsules.
