What is Microdosing?

Microdosing is all about taking tiny, sub-perceptual amounts of substances like psilocybin—the active compound found in certain mushrooms. Unlike a full psychedelic experience, microdosing doesn’t produce hallucinations or intense emotional shifts. Instead, it’s often explored for its potential to boost creativity, enhance focus, and promote emotional balance. Many women are turning to microdosing as a natural way to support their mental health and manage daily stresses.

What is Psilocybin?

Psilocybin is a naturally occurring compound found in "magic mushrooms." Research has shown that psilocybin can foster new neural connections, potentially aiding in mood regulation, mental clarity, and cognitive function. When microdosed, psilocybin offers these benefits without the overwhelming psychedelic effects, making it a popular choice for those seeking subtle yet impactful enhancements to their well-being.

Why Microdosing Institute?

At Moonai, we’re passionate about advancing women’s health, so partnering with the Microdosing Institute was a perfect fit. Hein, the founder of MI, brings extensive knowledge, good vibes, and a relentless quest for quality. By working directly with farms, MI ensures that the psilocybin is top-notch and ethically sourced. Hein’s (https://microdosinginstitute.com/team/ founder of MI) personal dedication to contributing to women’s health research aligns seamlessly with our mission to support and empower women through every stage of their wellness journey.

Supporting Groundbreaking Research on Women’s Health

We’re particularly thrilled about MI’s pioneering research into how microdosing psilocybin can help manage premenstrual symptoms (PMS). This partnership allows us to share valuable educational content and insights, helping you understand how microdosing might benefit your specific health needs.

The Research and How to Participate

One of the standout studies we’re supporting is being conducted by the Faculty of Psychology and Neuroscience at Maastricht University in collaboration with MI. This study aims to investigate the effects of microdosing psychedelics on menstrual-related symptoms. Participants are asked to take small doses (10-20% of a typical psychedelic dose) of psilocybin and report their emotional states.

Purpose of the Study:

To explore whether microdosing psychedelics can alleviate symptoms associated with the menstrual cycle, such as mood swings, brain fog, and cognitive decline.

How to Join:

Are you interested in contributing to this groundbreaking research? You can participate by registering here.

Additionally, while using Moonai, leave us a feedback or type in "what emotion do you feel?" that you are "microdosing" so we can bring additional insights on women's pain, microdosing, and music as medicine.

Why This Partnership?

At Moonai, we believe in collaborating with partners who share our values of quality, community, and ethical practices. MI’s commitment to comprehensive research, community-building, and sustainable sourcing perfectly complements our dedication to women’s health and wellness. Hein’s passion and expertise ensure that we can offer you the best resources and support on your microdosing journey.

Research Highlights

We’ve delved deep into the latest scientific research to bring you a comprehensive overview of how microdosing psilocybin can impact women’s health. Here are some key findings:

  1. Hormonal Health and Psilocybin
    • Study Insight: Research published in Pharmacy Times highlights how estrogen levels can influence the effects of psilocybin in women. Higher estrogen levels may enhance psilocybin's positive impacts on mood and cognitive function.
    • Data Point: Women with higher estrogen levels reported a 30% increase in mood stability when microdosing psilocybin compared to those with lower levels
      .
  2. Microdosing and Menopausal Symptoms:
    • Study Insight: A study on ResearchGate explored how microdosing psychedelics can ease menopausal symptoms such as brain fog, low mood, and cognitive decline.
    • Data Point: Participants noted a 25% reduction in cognitive decline and a 20% improvement in mood after consistent microdosing over three months.
  3. Placebo Effects in Microdosing:
    • Study Insight: According to PsyPost, some benefits of microdosing psilocybin may be attributed to expectancy effects, where the belief in its efficacy plays a significant role.
    • Data Point: Approximately 40% of participants experienced noticeable benefits, which could partly be due to placebo effects.
  4. Comprehensive Reviews on Women’s Health:
    • Study Insight: Women's Health Magazine UK discusses various aspects of psychedelic therapy, emphasising the need for more gender-specific research to understand its full potential.
    • Data Point: Preliminary findings suggest a 35% improvement in PMS-related symptoms with microdosing, though more extensive studies are needed.
  5. Neuroscientific Perspectives:
    • Study Insight: An article in ScienceDirect reviews how psilocybin influences neural pathways related to emotional regulation and cognitive function.
    • Data Point: Enhanced connectivity in the prefrontal cortex was observed in microdosers, correlating with better emotional regulation.

A Few Words of Caution

While the research is promising, it’s essential to approach microdosing responsibly. Here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • Individual Variability: Everyone’s body reacts differently to substances. What works for one person might not work for another.
  • Country's regulation: check with your local authorities for the laws about it
  • Consult Professionals: Always speak with a healthcare professional before starting any new health regimen, especially if you have underlying health conditions.
  • Quality and Source: Ensure you obtain psilocybin from reputable sources to guarantee safety and efficacy.

Remember, Moonai isn’t a medical provider, and decline all responsibility (stay curious and informed, babes, that's the key!). Our goal is to educate and inform, so always contact healthcare practitioners or the Microdosing Institute if you have any questions or need personalised advice.
