Magic Truffle: A Blessing or Curse

We all have seen movies where efforts are made to utilize the full power of the brain or consuming substance to stay more focused and  energized.  Micro dosing is another step in helping us stay more relaxed, focused and enhance our concentration level.

It involves consuming a small, sub-perceptual amount of a psychedelic substance, such as psilocybin mushroom or LSD. The psilocybin here is truffles (also called magic truffle). The concept is the same, you consume a tiny dose of truffles(~ 1 grams) regularly. It lowers the overall pain level and immune system.

Results have shown that it boosts the production of BDNF (protein) which is necessary for long term memory and increasing your overall response mechanism.

Paul Stamets, a leading mycologists in the world, has presented a stacking formula (Stamets Protocol) for the purpose of up regulating neurogenesis.

The neurotropic stack which is combination of cognitive enhancer  is termed as " the next quantum leap in human consciousness"

The protocol is designed for is specific for a 70 kg (154 pound) person. Leaning towards the higher doses for heavier people is probably best, but not until trying a smaller dose first (as each person is different).

1.  1 – 10 mg  psilocybin / psilocin (psilocybin mushroom @ 1% = .1 – 1 g)

2.  500 – 200 mg lion mane mushroom extract (@ 1% = 5 – 20 g)

3.  101 – 200 mg niacin

It requires for taking the stack five times a day and then two days off. The main reason for fusing lion mane with psilocybin is the combine ability to create new neurons and neutral pathways and to repair existing neurological damage. The benefits as already discussed are numerous.

With benefits there are also risk associated with it, listed below.

1.  Magic truffles (mushrooms) is illegal in many countries.

2. Lion's mane mushroom creates upper respiratory issue.

3. Dose above recommended for niacin can lead to redness and itchy sensation.

The million dollar question that arises is that are magic mushroom legal or not. The answer to this question is complicated. Netherland, the place which is ideal for the growth of mushrooms due to it's weather has banned  since 2007. But the catch is that, government only outlawed the mature mushroom stage of psychedelic fungi, meaning that truffles containing psilocybin are still legal to buy and consume. They are usually sold across shops  and transported to other countries like Amsterdam, where they are extremely popular. Bahamas and Brazil  has legalized the production, consumption and sale of magic truffles. 

The world is divided on the question that whether magic truffle or mushroom are the future and can replace medicine as an alternate for attaining focus, strength and enhanced nervous system.
