The Stamets Stack
The Stamets Stack Recipe is a popular microdosing method as recommended by famous mycologist, Paul Stamets. There are many ways to microdose mushrooms but, Stamets believes that his “stack” is an ideal way to dose. So what exactly is a Stamets Stack? Let’s have a look.
The Stamets Stack Ingredients
A Stamets stack is comprised of three ingredients, psilocybin containing mushrooms, Lion’s Mane mushrooms and Niacin. Each one of these have amazing healing properties on their own, but when combined, they take on a whole new level of regeneration for your brain. The stack is designed to enhance cognitive function and offer up many other benefits that are related to neurogeneis — the brain’s ability to create new neural pathways and connections. This is particularly useful if you are trying to create a new habit or break unhealthy ones. The claim’s made have not been tested through clinical trials, but there is a lot of anecdotal evidence to back them up.
Some of the reported benefits of microdosing with the Stamets Stack include:
Less Irritability
More confidence and courage
Stamets believes that this brain enhancing protocol can help people to break free of their unhealthy habits and see things from a new perspective which in turn can fire up the evolution of human consciousness.
The 3 Component’s Of A Stamets Stack
1. Lion’s Mane Mushrooms are large white puffy mushrooms. They are know to itsupport brain health by stimulating Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) prompting the production, growth and maintenance of neurons. Stamets refers to Lion’s Mane as an “Intelligence mushroom”, believing that it can actually make us smarter. Lion’s Mane is believed to enhance the long-term benefits of the neurogenerative properties of psilocybin. 2. Psilocybin mushrooms, also more commonly referred to as magic mushrooms, the ones with the potential to cause a psychoactive effect, in the Stamets Stack however, it is only a microdose that is used, so it is unlikely that you will feel any of the typical effects of magic mushrooms. We, of course use Golden Teacher mushrooms in our version of the Stamets Stack, more on that below. 3. Niacin, a vitamin is also known as vitamin B3, or nicotinic acid. Its main role is to convert the calories from the food that we eat into energy that we then exert. The vitamin is also believed to distribute the benefits of psilocybin and Lion's mane more thoroughly throughout the entire body and the peripheral nervous system.
The niacin can to cause a “flushing” effect causing redness and tingling in the face and arms that can last anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes. This is caused by Niacins vasodilative properties. As more blood flows into the capillaries, the skin turns red. While this may be a bit uncomfortable, it is a good sign that it is indeed working. Just remember, “this too, shall pass.” This flushing happens to some people and does not for others. It is dependent both upon the size of the dose in relation to your body weight as well as the current load of B3 in someone's system. Sometimes the effect is not felt at all, and sometimes it is felt only in the first several doses until tolerance is reached.
