Interview With David Dardashti, Founder of Ibogaine clinic

Does Jon Stewart Microdosing Magic Mushrooms?

Have you ever wanted to try microdosing magic mushrooms before, because Jon Stewart wants to! On a recent podcast episode of The Problem with Jon Stewart, the political comedian opened his show by saying “I’ve been microdosing the whole week!”, before clarifying that he just WANTS to try psychedelic microdosing.

The satirist, sometimes known as America’s Conscience, is one of the most influential voices in media over the last 3 decades. His short and funny forrow into the psychedelics debate should help further propel the issue into the mainstream.

Can microdosing help depression? Can Microdosing help mental health? Jon Stewart thinks so, though this claim needs to be verified by the medical establishment.

Microdosing has become a popular trend for professionals in the last few decades, so it is not surprising that Jon Stewart knows about it. He is a man with his finger on America’s pulse.

A second domino is falling in the world of psychedelic stock investing.

Last week, Psychedelic Spotlight reported that Mind Cure Health (CSE: MCUR) (OTCQX: MCURF) was halting its psychedelic medicines research, following a “strategic review” undertaken by the company.

In short, they ran out of money.

As I have stated repeatedly, running a psychedelic research company is ridiculously expensive, and many smaller companies with low market caps and little money in the bank will find it hard to survive in a market context of low stock prices.

At the time, I speculated that “we shouldn’t be surprised if this is just the first domino,” and unfortunately, it didn’t take much time for the prophecy to be realized.

On March 19th, psychedelics company Core One Labs (CSE: COOL) (OTC: CLABF) announced that they are “working to investigate investment and potential takeover opportunities by strategic psychedelics or pharmaceutical companies.”

Or, in other words, they too have run out of money and are looking for a financial savior.

This wasn’t particularly surprising. Taking a cursory look at their financials, we can see the dire position the company is in. As of the end of September, the company had $587,000 CAD in the bank, and they were spending more than $5 million per quarter. With a market cap of around $32 million, Core One would have to dilute their stock by more than 15% each quarter to keep spending at the same levels. This, obviously, is an unsustainable proposition.

So, with two psychedelic medicine companies essentially announcing that they no longer have the financial wherewithal to continue operations, does it mean that the end of psychedelic stocks is near?

No, it most certainly does not.

To start, we need to understand that the psychedelics companies that are beginning to falter are the ones who were already in bad financial shape. There are many companies that have strong financials, and do not need to worry about refinancing any time soon. A short and non-exhaustive list of these companies include: atai Life Sciences (Nasdaq: ATAI); MindMed (Nasdaq: MNMD) (NEO: MMED); and Small Pharma (TSXV: DMT) (OTCQB: DMTTF). Even if — and I judge this to be likely — more small-cap psychedelics companies follow Mind Cure and Core One Labs’ lead, the more financially stable companies won’t be affected.

In this episode, James, The Psychedelic Investor, sits down with Doug Drysdale, CEO of Cybin (NYSE: CYBN) for the Psychedelic Spotlight podcast.

In the interview, the two discuss Cybin’s psychedelic medicines portfolio, and where the psychedelic industry is going in the next few years. Can psychedelics heal mental health?

The main topic was attempting to answer the question: can psilocybin heal mental health conditions like depression?

Doug Drysdale spoke on the positive results we have seen in psilocybin for depression clinical trials, such as the Compass Pathways’ psilocybin (comp 360) for treatment-resistant depression phase 2b trial. Despite the apparent benefits of psilocybin, though, Doug Drysdale and Cybin argued that there were 3 core problems with using psilocybin in a therapy setting: the long duration of effect; the onset action period; and the variability of effect.

Cybin has developed a new version of psilocybin, called CYB-003. CYB-003 has a shorter duration, reaches peak effect quicker, and has less variability in effect between individuals. Plus, it keeps all of the therapeutic benefits of psilocybin and its subjective effects.

It is important to note that Cybin’s Cyb-003, their next-generation psilocybin, has only been tested in animals up until this point. They intend to start human clinical trials next year.

James and Doug of Cybin also discussed the other Cybin projects, such as CYB-004, and their development strategy. They also discussed government policy, and whether the psychedelics sector has reaches escape velocity.

In all, this psychedelic medicines conversation was fascinating and showed Cybin’s dedication towards improving mental health conditions, which are abysmal in the United States right now.

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.
