Which truffle do you sell?
GO Microdose does not sell psilocybin mushrooms. GO Microdose only sells the fresh sclerotia (underground substrate) from the Psilocybe Mexicana truffle. We specifically only sell fresh sclerotia (not dried, not extracted) because this is legal.
The Psilocybe Mexicana truffle can be freely cultivated, traded, and exported in the Netherlands. It can also be freely provided to third parties in therapeutic sessions and be used for microdosing. It is a legal product in the Netherlands, as long as it has not undergone “active processing”, that’s why we only sell fresh sclerotia.
Therefore can be shipped to all EU countries under the European Commission’s Mutual Recognition of Goods Principle
Which side effects has microdosing?
Microdosing has a few possible side effects:
• Fatigue
Some people experience more fatigue. It is quite possible that this is due to the extra impressions or the more active lifestyle that microdosing provides for them.
• Slight nausea
Nausea-like people experience a slight nausea. Sometimes it helps to take a little ginger so that this feeling disappears quickly.
• Tolerance
Tolerance may occur for some time. This means that your body is used to the effects. It is important to stop after a few days and start over again after a break, according to the step-by-step plan at the course that you follow.
• Hallucinations
Color blind people can suffer from hallucinations and ‘after images’. This only occurs with a small part of the people.
• Challenges in changes
Changes in your consciousness and sensitivity can lead to experienced challenges.
• Transpiration
Some people will transpire more if they use microdosings. That is not dangerous.
We therefore recommend that you stop microdosing for a month after 8 to 10 weeks of usage. You can then experience how you feel and what the differences are. Afterwards you can of course start again if you like.
How long can I store the truffles?
In the sealed packaging you can store the fresh truffles up to 2 months in the fridge. Once you open the packaging you can keep it fresh up to 2 weeks, if you keep them dry and cold.
Who use psilocybin truffles?
The product we sell is the Sclerotia (underground substrate) from the Psilocybe Mexicana.
But to answer you question, our customers are very diverse. It is about talented people who would like to get everything out of their possibilities and others who want to sleep better.
This year Netflix launched a documentary with the title ‘Have a Good Trip’. Creative geniuses such as ASAP Rocky, Sting and Anthony Bourdain are known for their use. They experienced recreational, medicinal and mind-blowing effects. The use is also of all times. The reasons for use differ greatly.
Some want to improve their productivity, creativity and energy level. Others want to change their mood or state of mind and still others want to develop themselves at work or private life. Do you try to perform on the highest level every day? If you are looking for products that can help you it might be a good idea to try microdosing.
Moreover, the use goes back to 9000 BC. From that time, cave paintings from the Sahara have already been found in North Africa. There you can see how people use magic truffles. Moreover, among other things, the Maya and the Aztecs have always used them. They improved their relationship with nature and could communicate with their gods. In a West Mexican shaft even evidence of 1800 years of age has been found that people then used exactly the same microdosings if you can order from us.
Where do the psilocybin truffles come from?
Our truffles are grown in the Netherlands, on a special farm specializing in this sclerotia (underground substrate) from the Psilocybe Mexicana truffles.
Is microdosing legal?
Yes, microdosing is 100% legal in the Netherlands. It concerns Sclerotia (underground substrate) of the Psilocybe Mexicana that simply grow in the ground. It is a natural process. As a result, the truffles do not belong to the mushrooms known for their psychedelic effects. The product therefore does not fall under the mushroom law that applies in the Netherlands.
Mushrooms are on list 2 of the Opium Act and are therefore prohibited to breed, sell or buy. The Psilocybe Mexicana is almost impossible to breed at home. That makes control easier. That is why you can use microdosings completely legally.
That’s why truffles can be shipped to all EU countries under the Mutual Recognition of Goods Principle of the European Commission.
Should the microdoses be stored in the refrigerator?
Yes, you can best store the microdoses in the refrigerator. Sealed (vacuum) they will remain useable for up to two months. Is there no space in the fridge? Then store the products in a cool, dry and dark place. You thereby limit the risk of rotten products or a reduction in psilocybin content.
The truffles that we use for the microdosing are fungi by definition. That means that you can best store the psilocybin at 2 to 4 degrees Celsius. Avoid ice formation and always leave the strips in their packaging. In this way there will not be much moisture with the microdos. Too much moisture could lead to infections on the truffles, so that they lose their operation and strength (partially).
What are magic truffles?
The official name of a truffle is ‘sclerotium’. The plural thereof is ‘sclerotia’. This is a thickening of the mycelium, which as a body saves the food for a mushroom. That’s why it looks like a small nut. The sclerotia are part of the life cycle of a fungus, to store food. That helps the mushroom to survive in difficult circumstances, for example during a lack of water, during extreme temperatures or in cases of too much moisture.
The psilocybin truffles are also called ‘magic truffles’ because of their operation. They cause a psychedelic effect at high doses. With our microdosings you can experience a piece of the magic yourself, without the psychedelic effects. You are therefore more productive, more creative and you experience more energy. On the other hand you don’t experience the disadvantages.
How do I start microdosing?
It is wise to start microdosing carefully. In this way you provide your body the opportunity to get used to it. Moreover, you can experience the effects yourself. It helps you to find your sweet spot, where you experience the most productivity, creativity and energy.
Track your experiences in a diary or in an app if you use the microdosing. For example, write about your findings, experiences and feelings. Moreover, write down how productive you are, what mood you experience and in what state of mind you are. You will record the benefits and disadvantages for yourself. That ultimately helps you to find the ideal microdosition, from which you experience the most benefits.
Tip: make sure you are well rested if you start microdosing. That will guarantee the most neutral test to see if it works for you.
