Natural Psilocybin Microdose is an excellent choice for those who want to experiment with the cognitive and mental effects of psychedelic mushrooms without experiencing full-blown trips. It is important to evaluate your physical and psychological health prior to starting a microdose cycle. Seeing a medical doctor or psychotherapist can help you identify any risk factors that may be exacerbated by psychedelics.

It is recommended to begin by taking a small dose, 5-10 percent of the standard amount that would produce a subperceptual experience in most people, and then working your way up gradually. This allows you to become accustomed to the effects and minimizes any unpleasant side-effects.

Natural Psilocybin Microdose: What Makes It Different

During the study, participants filled out daily questionnaires measuring mood, mindfulness, wellbeing, mystical experiences, creativity, and sense of agency. The data showed an increase in the majority of these indicators on microdose days compared to baselines. In particular, participants reported less depression and stress; increased attention and focus; and a greater sense of meaning and purpose in their lives. The effect was also demonstrated on psychometric measures of cognitive function, such as the Go/No-Go test and Stroop. Specifically, the psilocybin group was more accurate and had slower response times on the Go/No-Go task. Moreover, on the Stroop, there was a trend toward a decrease in involuntariness and an increase in effortlessness scores.

In addition, several studies have shown that microdosing is associated with a reduction in substance use. For example, LSD has been shown to reduce alcohol consumption and psilocybin has been found to significantly reduce tobacco usage in trials.
