I looked through but I don't think anyone has mentioned quercetin yet.
Ima just paste what I posted over on the shroomery..
holy balls. I've experienced the most profoundly pure & incredible method of taking magic (GREAT stress on the magic part) mushrooms.
supplies:
- Lemon juice
- Shot glass
- Dried mushrooms
- coffee grinder
- FRS apricot nectarine energy drink (not necessary but get it if you can, OJ will work too but not as well)
So you pretty much just grind up 5g of dried shrooms in a coffee grinder until it's a powder, then wait a few minutes for all the dust inside to settle. After that, pour the powder into a suitably sized shot glass, cover with lemon juice enough to cover the powder and mix it all up. Stir it a few times and then pour in the FRS/OJ and wait a few more minutes then pound it.
What will follow is the most anxiety/fear/paranoia free, rapid-ass onset, mind-blowingly colorful psychedelic experience of the most magic and other worldly kind. I'm not entirely sure what the requirements are, but I'd say my girlfriend and I had our first ++++ the other night using this method (ok we ate a couple shroom chocolates too)
It was as if we were gods...being able to be anywhere in the universe, feeling the pure fun and bliss of the experience slowly giving new meaning to everything, everywhere. If I could describe the trip in 2 words it would be spiritually awakening. I felt as if my spirit had woken up/come to life for the first time ever. My girlfriend and I felt as if our spirits were one, combining and twisting and merging together in a vibrant display of intricate visuals and euphoric sensations. It gave a whole new meaning to love.
Gotta love the fungus man
** The science behind it -
I believe the lemon juice more or less takes care of the work your body/stomach has to do digesting the shrooms (something about the pH level), as the fungus are quite difficult for the body to digest. When I do drugs I get a sort of visualization of what the drug is doing...I'm not really sure how to explain it. It almost felt like the lemon juice encapsulated all the magical compounds in the mushrooms and carried them promplty straight to the brain, bypassing the digestive agony shrooms often cause. There wasn't a whole hour where I had to sit and be anxious and feel like I'm waiting for something. I just got blasted with color and from then on it was pure fun! Oh, and the FRS actually makes the shot taste GOOD (in addition to the quercetin inhibiting enzymes which breakdown and expel tryptamines from the body). Not tolerable or OK, it actually leaves a good taste in your mouth. You can't beat that Aight done rambling lol hopefully some of you try this and lemme know how you like it
EDIT: I believe chamomile tea also has quercetin, so yeah..
