Can Psychedelics Treat Alcoholism? New Psilocybin & DMT Studies Say YES

Wakeful Travel Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/920110985/wakeful-travel-journals-support-your-transformation?ref=f1y202

In today’s episode, we dive into two pre-clinical studies testing psychedelics’ effectiveness in treating alcohol-related illnesses.

In the first, researchers tested psilocybin (magic mushrooms) on mice who got addicted to alcohol. They found that the psilocybin helped repair a part of their brain that alcohol abuse damaged. This helped the mice make less neurotic decisions, and helped them abstain from alcohol.

This is promising, and if it can be repeated in humans, it would be a huge step forward in treating alcoholism.

The second study looked at the Ayahuasca brew, which has as its main psychoactive ingredient DMT. In this study, the researchers found that the mice who took the ayahuasca were less likely to seek out more alcohol.

Again, if this can be replicated in humans, it would show the powerful benefits of psychedelic medicines to treat alcoholism.

Psychedelics and mental health have long been a topic of research, and we are finally getting data that psychedelics like psilocybin and DMT may be effective in treating a variety of mental health conditions, such as alcoholism.

What are the benefits of Microdosing psilocybin? | Interview with a Microdosing Expert

In today’s episode, we sit down with microdosing expert Sena Maria of The Medicine of Being Human and MicrodosingForResilience.com. 

In this interview, we learn about Sena’s microdosing business, which helps people begin microdosing psilocybin (note she does not provide any illegal substances, only coaches people on how to microdose) and the benefits that microdosing can bring.

For example, Sena gives us a fantastic Top 5 Benefits of Microdosing at some point in our chat.

Some of the questions that we covered were: 
-What is microdosing and what are the benefits?
-How/ why did you start microdosing ?
-What is your microdosing regiment? 
-What benefits have you personally seen from this?
-What do you wish people knew about psychedelics that they don’t currently?
-Can Microdosing magic mushrooms help with addiction?
-Can microdosing help treat depression or anxiety?
 
On top of discussing the how and why of microdosing psychedelics, Sena also discussed how these medicines have been known for generations in some aboriginal tribes, and how Western Medicine may still have a lot to learn.

Hello psychedelic investors! Today’s episode is a bit different yet still relevant to all of us invested in the psychedelic industry!
To summarize,
Andrew Yang comes out Hard against the war on drugs and for legalizing psilocybin. He says “The war on drugs has been a war on people”.
Specifically, Andrew Yang calls out the criminalization of opioid use, saying big pharma has gotten these people addicted while “generating billions of dollars of blood money”, and then we throw people in jail for the pharma industries failures.
This is, in Yang’s eyes, not a criminal problem, but a public health problem.
If people are addicted to something, don’t throw them in jail, get them the help that they need to treat an illness that in many cases was caused by billionaire pharma companies.
How will Andrew Yang create a de facto decriminalization?
He would instruct the DA not to prosecute for possession charges.
Its that simple.
Finally he talks about how he is for the legalization of psilocybin and open to legalize other substances.
Yang is calling for decriminalizing the use of all drugs, AND to legalize psilocybin..
