Microdosing (Part 1): James Fadiman and the fundamentals of microdosing

Welcome back to Business Trip, a podcast about psychedelic entrepreneurship! 🍄

In this 3-part series on microdosing, we explore the science, history, and its clinical potential. The anecdotal benefits of microdosing include better mood, creativity, and focus. But there are still many unanswered questions that remain. What is an effective dosing protocol? Is it safe in long term use? Does it even work or is it a placebo effect?

In part 1, we chat with James Fadiman, PhD who has been researching psychedelics since the 1960’s. He's the author of several books, including the Psychedelic Explorer's Guide. He has collected thousands of microdosing reports and even has his own microdosing protocol - called the Fadiman protocol. When we talk about standing on the shoulders of giants, James Fadiman is one of them.

Listen here

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Findings from researching thousands of microdosing reports

  • Examples of unusual cases with microdosing

  • The benefits of collecting real world evidence in research

  • His views on FDA clinical trials for microdosing

Listen to the episode here, on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.
