This is a chemical compound derived from specific types of hallucinogenic Psilocybin Mushrooms. It belongs to the group of indole-alkylamines, particularly tryptamines, and shares a structural resemblance with lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD). Fans of Psilocybin Mushrooms are attracted to this compound because of its hallucinogenic and euphoric characteristics. Its mind-changing properties are a result of its interaction with serotonin (5-HT) receptors found in the central nervous system.

Its influence impacts the prefrontal cortex of the brain, which is accountable for abstract thought, mood adjustment, and perception. A significant portion of users report feelings of euphoria, transcendence, or mystical occurrences, as corroborated by both scientific research and anecdotal evidence. Enhancements in colours and sounds contribute to an altered perception of the environment, cultivating a profound sense of openness, connection to the world, and deep introspection. Over 200 varieties of magic Psilocybin Mushrooms have been documented by Health Canada. Due to their similar characteristics, these types can be hard to differentiate, which increases the chance of unintentionally consuming toxic versions. This risk can be mitigated by dispensaries providing trusted and tested products. These dispensaries also offer educational blogs and research resources to educate interested readers and customers about safe usage practices and benefits.

Microdosing pertains to the habit of continuously ingesting minuscule, nearly unnoticeable amounts of psychedelic substances. This routine consists of consuming these tiny dosages on a weekly timetable, ensuring several days of gap in between. Executing this process allows for the benefits of this method to be reaped without disrupting day-to-day life.

The interaction of this compound with serotonin receptors necessitates the avoidance of substances that could modify the serotonin system, such as SSRI antidepressants like Prozac. Combining it with Tramadol could lead to Serotonin Syndrome, so it's essential to avoid such a mix. Concurrent use with amphetamines or other recreational substances can also have damaging effects.

It causes effects that are similar to other hallucinogens such as mescaline from peyote or LSD. These effects can range from visual and auditory hallucinations to a diminished capacity to differentiate between illusion and reality. Hallucinogens that affect serotonin can alter various body functions including mood, sensory perception, sleep, hunger, body temperature, sexual activity, and muscle coordination. Additional effects:

• Amplify emotions and sensory experiences
• Alter the perception of time
• Boost physiological parameters like blood pressure and breathing rate
• Diminish hunger
• Disrupt sleep patterns
• Provoke synesthetic occurrences
• Evoke spiritual experiences
• Encourage relaxation or a sense of detachment from oneself and environment

• Think about refraining from eating for 4-12 hours to lower the chances of feeling nauseous and to improve your overall journey.
• Slowly drink water over an extended period to prevent potential headaches caused by the psychological effects of the trip.
• Before starting your exploration, channel your energy towards your expected outcome by setting explicit objectives. Consider using a journal to write them down or view them as a guiding force during your journey.
• Create a peaceful environment by arranging your space and adjusting the lighting to encourage a sense of tranquility.
• Prepare a pack with essentials such as earplugs, first aid supplies, snacks, and different layers of clothing to adjust to varying temperatures.
• Reserve a day with no obligations after the trip for reflection and integration.

Usually, the duration fluctuates between 4 to 6 hours, peaking around 2 to 3 hours post ingestion. Mild discomfort might be felt during the first hour. Refrain from consuming during this time to dodge possible issues. During the zenith of the trip, significant alterations to your senses and cognitive abilities might take place. This stage calls for a serene demeanor and acceptance of any emotions or insights that may arise.

• Chew and Swallow: Ensure thorough chewing or utilize a grinder if necessary.
• Tea: Steep the dried variant to brew tea, tweak the quantity as needed, and incorporate lemon, ginger, or honey to enhance flavor.
• Psilocybin Mushrooms Smoothie: Mix it with fruits for a more palatable experience.
• Capsules: Integrate the powdered versions into capsules for simplified dosage control.
• Lemon Tek: Soak in lemon or lime juice to hasten the onset.

In 2021, the Journal of Psychopharmacology carried out a study on this subject. The analysis utilized data from ten separate studies, with a total of 288 participants who each were given Psil dosages ranging from 20 to 30 mg per 70 kg of their body weight. The probe failed to find any notable link between a person's body weight and the effects across all three groups. This suggests that the adoption of a fixed dose might be feasible, economical, and as effective as tweaking the dose based on weight. Rather than concentrating on weight-dependent adjustments, the recommendation is to begin with lower dosages and gradually escalate as one becomes more familiar with the psychedelic experience.
