Brain size and drugs?

[Boga]

[h=1]Hello guys[/h]
Got a question i want to ask about :

Lets say we have 2 person

Both weight 70kg

The 1.person brain weight 1.5kg

While the 2.person brain weight 2kg.

Will them both have same experience if they consume, lets say:

1g of cocaine
1g of weed
1L of beer
1g DMT

or need the 2.person consume abit more drugs to reach the same experience/effect as the 1.person have.


Can someone please confirm this ?


Thanks!

I can't confirm it but my guess would he that that's too small a difference to make much difference to perception. There are lots of other variables that could cause far more different experiences than just brain size. It'd you did a study maybe you'd find some difference but my bet would be that it's insignificant.

Maybe the 2kg brained person would have more experience cause that means their actual body is half a kg lighter than the other. Likely meaning less blood volume to dilute the drugs.

Hey JessFR

I thought that the 2kg brained person need to consume more since its the brain who get effected by it and not the body.
But could you please try to tell abit more in detail, how it works ?

Thanks

I'm not sure where you heard this, but no. Bodyweight is what can affect dosage.

What matters is blood/plasma concentration in the brain, and that depends on total body weight not brain weight. Also, 1g DMT? Daym.

Thanks guys, good get clear on things

But may i ask then that, a person who weight around 140-150kg, he is likely to consume almost 2x times than me (75kg) to feel/get the same effect right?

Thanks.

I would think so, yeah, since effects tend to go by amount per kg. But it might depend on the drug. (And obviously that's not taking into account if either of you has a tolerance, or any other factors)

I think the correct answer is that brain size doesn't matter and only the whole body size does. I don't believe it works like someone with a bigger brain has a larger collection of receptors and would need more of a.substance to achieve the same effect. I think if anything the difference in the receptor count in different sized brains is probably not all that great.

I do know that dilution matters and a bigger person is just a larger area that requires more drugs to achieve the same concentration as a smaller person. To put it very simply.

This is your claim to fame, test it!
