Has anyone tried it and how would you compare to smoking dmt vs releasing your own? It works
DMT is surely endogenous. I do however doubt that breathing a certain way would increase the amount you produce.I don't know where you heard Wim Hoff breathing method releases DMT, it is very unlikely and no endogenous release of DMT in the brain has ever been proved to happen. As far as today it is just an unproven theory.
I am not very experienced with his method though I have tried. It is basically hiperventilation as far as I can see. I respect his achievements though I am not very impressed by his talk. I am very interested in the method though and probably should look further into it.
And as a final note and to answer your main question, if you ever try smoked DMT I suspect you will find it is a whole new ball game.
We have undertaken a critical review of 69 published studies reporting the detection or detection and quantitation of these compounds in human body fluids. In reviewing this literature, we address the methods applied and the criteria used in the determination of the presence of DMT, MDMT, and HDMT. The review provides a historical perspective of the research conducted from 1955 to 2010, summarizing the findings for the individual compounds in blood, urine, and/or cerebrospinal fluid. A critique of the data is offered that addresses the strengths and weaknesses of the methods and approaches to date. The review also discusses the shortcomings of the existing data in light of more recent findings and how these may be overcome
by the way,
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22371425
it is a review of other articles in which a claim was made that DMT is endogenous.
It is not endogenous.
this does not mean that the work to establish DMT being endogenous is good, it is actually bad news for believers, but for those who cannot interpret this paragraph, the bottom line is that the tests are not scientifically convincing.
^I agree. I've heard a lot of people spouting false information about DMT. This generally involves people misrepresenting information published in Strassmans book (i.e they claim that the topics which he repeatedly stresses are simply ideas/proposals, are actually proven scientific facts). Anybody who's read the book will know that this isn't the case.
From: http://www.icemanwimhof.com/files/pnas.pdfHitherto, both the autonomic nervous system and innate immune system were regarded as systems that cannot be voluntarily influenced. The present study demonstrates that, through practicing techniques learned in a short-term training program, the sympathetic nervous system and immune system can indeed be voluntarily influenced. Healthy volunteers practicing the learned techniques exhibited profound increases in the release of epinephrine, which in turn led to increased production of anti-inflammatory mediators and subsequent dampening of the pro-inflammatory cytokine response elicited by intravenous administration of bacterial endotoxin. This study could have important implications for the treatment of a variety of conditions associated with excessive or persistent inflammation, especially autoimmune diseases in which therapies that antagonize proinflammatory cytokines have shown great benefit.
