What is Ayahuasca vine Microdosing?

Microdosing with Ayahuasca is a growing trend, as people are looking for new ways to enhance their mental and emotional well-being. This method involves consuming small amounts of the Banisteriopsis Caapi vine, the primary ingredient in Ayahuasca, on a regular basis. The goal of this practice is to experience the benefits of the active ingredients in the vine, known as B-carbolines, without inducing intense psychedelic experiences.

B-carbolines, including harmine, harmaline and tetrahydroharmine, have been shown to have a positive impact on our mental state by inhibiting monoamine oxidase enzymes and regulating neurotransmitters such as dopamine and serotonin. This is why microdosing with Ayahuasca in Europe and USA has become popular for those seeking to enhance their overall mood, reduce anxiety, and increase their cognitive abilities.

Microdosing with Ayahuasca is a safe and natural way to boost your well-being, as long as you follow the recommended doses and use high-quality products. It is also important to note that microdosing should not replace conventional medical treatment for any mental health conditions, and it is always best to consult with a healthcare professional before starting a new supplementation regime.

When should I take Ayahuasca vine dieting?

Ayahuasca is a powerful plant medicine that has been used for centuries by indigenous communities in the Amazon for healing, initiation and education. While traditional ayahuasca ceremonies involve drinking the brew in a ceremonial setting, there is an alternative way to experience the benefits of this powerful plant - through microdosing with the Ayahuasca vine. In this article, we will explore the benefits of Ayahuasca vine microdosing, including preparation for Ayahuasca ceremonies, integration of Ayahuasca experiences and general well-being.

1) Preparation for Ayahuasca experience:
If you are preparing for an upcoming Ayahuasca ceremony, our course can help you to prepare your body and mind, and boost your experience from the very first ceremony. By taking the Ayahuasca vine in the recommended quantities, you can create a harmonious environment within your body, allowing you to get the most out of your Ayahuasca experience.

2) Integration of Ayahuasca experience:
After participating in an Ayahuasca ceremony, practitioners often experience a positive afterglow for about a month. However, after this time, it can be difficult to maintain this state and continue the process of integration. That's where the Ayahuasca vine course comes in. By taking the vine regularly, you can prolong the benefits of the ceremony and reconnect with Mother Medicine, helping to facilitate a deeper and more meaningful integration process.

3) For general well-being:
If you have never had an Ayahuasca experience and do not feel ready to participate in a ceremony, but still wish to experience the benefits of Ayahuasca, the vine microdosing course is an ideal solution for you. It allows you to feel the effects of the vine without going through an intense psychoactive journey, making it a great starting point for those interested in exploring the world of Ayahuasca.

Ayahuasca vine microdosing course offers a unique and powerful way to experience the benefits of Ayahuasca, whether it is for preparation, integration or general well-being. By taking the vine in the recommended quantities, you can experience the positive effects of its active ingredients and tap into the power of this ancient plant medicine.

How to take Ayahuasca vine macrodosing?

Before embarking on a course with Ayahuasca vine, it is important to properly prepare your body and mind. This not only ensures the best possible experience, but also ensures your safety.

In the five days leading up to the course, it is important to avoid all recreational drugs as well as any medications that interact negatively with MAOIs, the active compounds in Ayahuasca vine. Additionally, starting one day prior to the course, it is recommended to follow a restrictive diet.

To get the most out of the Ayahuasca vine course, it is recommended to take it in the evening before bedtime, when you are free from any obligations. Start with a small, initial dose two hours after your last meal, and gradually increase the amount if needed, as advised by the provided table.

As you go to bed, listen to the accompanying icaros and allow yourself to fully connect with the medicine. It is important to listen to your body and adjust the dose accordingly for a stronger or gentler effect.
By following these guidelines, you can ensure a safe and effective Ayahuasca vine experience.

What is the food dieting and contradictions during the Ayahuasca vine dieta?

One of the primary effects of the MAOIs in b. caapi is that they block the ability of the body's enzymes to metabolize tyramine. Tyramine can displace stored monoamines, such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine, from presynaptic vesicles. If foods high in tyramine are ingested, this can lead to strong side effects such as a hypertensive crisis.

Sticking to a low tyramine diet while microdosing with b.caapi is vital.
When using MAOIs, an intake of 6 to 10 mg of tyramine can lead to a mild reaction, while 10 to 25 mg leads to a severe reaction.

To understand how strict your diet should be, let us take the example of cheddar, a cheese that typically contains 0,24 mg of tyramine per gram. For a mild reaction, we would have to eat 25g of cheddar.

High-tyramine foods
Certain types of food have a high tyramine content, especially foods that are:

• fermented
• cured
• aged
• spoiled

Specific foods with high tyramine content include:

• strong or aged cheeses like cheddar, blue cheese, or gorgonzola
• cured or smoked meats or fish, such as sausage or salami
• beers on tap or home-brews
• overripe fruits
• certain beans, such as fava or broad beans
• sauces or gravies like soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, or bouillon-based sauces
• pickled products like sauerkraut
• sourdough bread
• fermented soy products like miso soup, bean curd, or tempeh. Some forms of tofu are also fermented and should be avoided such as "stinky tofu."

Below is a list of substances that you should NOT take 12 hours before and 12 hours after taking MAOIs.

Very dangerous:

  • sleeping pills
  • anaesthetics
  • migraine medication
  • allergy medication
  • over the counter cold medicines
  • cocaine
  • amphetamines
  • MDMA (XTC)
  • mescaline cacti: peyote and san pedro
