Deadhead Chemist Microdose Magic Mushroom Capsules comes with 24 pills.

Paul Stamets recommended microdosing protocol. Take a microdose every day for four days, then three days off.

Ingredients:

Psilocybin, Lions Mane, Reishi, Cordyceps, Ashwagandha, Green Tea Extract, Beet Root Extract

Psilocybin’s main effects is to stimulate a serotonin receptor called “5-HT2A” located in the prefrontal cortex, which leads to two important results:

• The production of “Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor” (BDNF), a protein that is “like Miracle-Gro for your brain,” according to Waldman. BDNF stimulates growth, connections, and activity. ^[1]
• The increased transmission of “Glutamate,” a neurotransmitter responsible (in part) for important brain functions such as cognition, learning, and memory. ^[2]

• Dampen the activity of an often over-used part of our brain called the “Default Mode Network” (DMN). ^[4] The DMN is responsible for many mental activities, including day-dreaming, self-reflection, and thinking about the past or the future
• Psychedelics could be used to combat depression and anxiety—as well as lead to insights and creative perspectives that may otherwise remain inaccessible.
