Psychedelic Microdosing (Microdosing Truffles)

Psychedelic Microdosing Truffles

Microdosing involves taking a fraction of a normal dose of psychedelics, typically one-tenth to one-fifth. For magic truffles, that means 0.5–1.5 grams per dose. This amount does not produce a full psychedelic experience, but the active compound psilocybin is still active in the brain. Psilocybin is converted in the body to psilocin, which binds to the 5-HT2A serotonin receptors in the prefrontal cortex. Users report effects on mood, cognitive function, and creativity; however, scientific research on microdosing is still in its early stages, and results vary from person to person.

Magic truffles (sclerotia from, among others, Psilocybe tampanensis) are legally available in the Netherlands for individuals 18 years of age and older. They are not subject to the Opium Act, unlike dried mushrooms.

Dosage

Psilocybin tolerance builds up quickly with frequent use, so daily microdosing loses its effect after just a few days. The recommended schedule is one dose every four days for ten weeks. One package contains 6 x 1 gram, enough for one full course of six doses. Choose the 12-pack if you want to complete the full ten weeks without having to reorder in between.

Do not exceed the recommended amount. At higher doses (2 grams or more), noticeable psychedelic effects occur that no longer qualify as microdosing. Follow the dosage chart on the package.

Side Effects

At the recommended dosage, side effects are rare. Occasional effects include mild stomach discomfort and nausea, particularly when taken on an empty stomach. In that case, take the dose with a small amount of food, or temporarily reduce the frequency.

Psilocybin may interact with SSRIs, SNRIs, and MAO inhibitors. Are you taking antidepressants or other psychiatric medication? Consult a doctor before starting. Avoid use if you have a personal or family history of psychosis, schizophrenia, or bipolar disorder.

Storage

Store unopened in the refrigerator at 4–8 °C and consume by the expiration date on the packaging. Do not order large quantities at once: the 6-pack and 12-pack are specifically designed for a fresh cycle. Once the product is finished, reorder to ensure freshness.

Warning

Only suitable for individuals 18 years of age and older. Do not use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Keep out of reach of children. Do not consume if the packaging is damaged or compromised. Order before 4:00 PM for next-day delivery Monday through Friday.
