microdosing protocols
There are six fundamental microdosing protocols, each designed to suit various preferences. It's advisable to keep a journal to monitor the effects. The protocols are: the Fadiman Protocol, Fixed Days, Every Other Day, Paul Stamets’ Protocol, Intuitive Microdosing, and the Nightcap Protocol, with each offering a distinct method for microdosing.
Fadiman Protocol
Named after psychologist James Fadiman, this protocol involves taking a microdose once every three days. On the first day, you take the microdose, then abstain for the next two days. This schedule aims to maximize the benefits while minimizing the risk of developing tolerance, allowing for sustained effects and introspective insights.
Fixed Days Protocol
This approach involves microdosing on specific days of the week, such as every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. The consistency of this schedule helps integrate the microdosing experience into your routine while providing regular intervals for reflection and adjustment based on personal effects and experiences.
Every Other Day Protocol
Under this protocol, you take a microdose every other day, creating a balanced rhythm that can enhance cognitive and emotional benefits. This schedule provides consistent exposure to the effects while allowing for intermittent breaks, which can help in assessing how microdosing impacts your daily life and well-being.
Paul Stamets’ Protocol
Developed by mycologist Paul Stamets, this protocol suggests a regimen of taking a microdose for four days, followed by three days off. Stamets’ approach includes combining the microdose with specific supportive supplements to enhance neurogenesis and overall mental health, aiming for both short-term benefits and long-term brain health.
Intuitive Microdosing
This flexible protocol is guided by personal intuition rather than a fixed schedule. You take a microdose based on your needs and feelings, rather than adhering to a specific timetable. This approach allows for a personalized experience, adjusting the frequency and dosage according to how you perceive its effects on your mood and cognition.
Nightcap Protocol
The Nightcap Protocol involves taking a microdose in the evening, typically a few hours before bedtime. This method aims to enhance relaxation and introspection during the night, potentially improving sleep quality and providing insights during the dream state, making it a unique option for those seeking nighttime benefits.
