Microdosing Truffles For Cluster Headaches

‘Cluster headaches’ are short, episodic, but extremely painful headaches. They are sharp and severe pains, usually occurring on one side of the head. Because they’re episodic, they can occur 8-10x a day. The pain intensity of a cluster headache is so high, that those who suffer from them compare them to childbirth. 

Cluster headache treatments are both expensive and excessive, because they can involve oxygen tanks, opiates, or frequent injections. As much as 20% of ‘clusterheads’ do not have proper treatment, because of its inaccessibility and side effects — which include heart problems and gum disease. Unfortunately, medical science currently doesn’t totally understand cluster headaches, and thus cannot provide effective & consistent treatment. For example, some clusterheads become treatment resistant, because their bodies have become immune to the procedures.

Microdosing Magic Truffles As An Alternative Treatment For Cluster Headaches   

Microdosing magic truffles has the potential to be an effective treatment for cluster headaches. Psilocybin and psilocin — two active compounds found in magic truffles — contain an alkaloid, called Tryptamine. Tryptamine works to increase serotonin in your brain. As a result, clusterheads have a reduction of their episodic headaches.

Increased Serotonin = Less Inflammation 

Tryptamine is found in many psychedelics, such as magic mushrooms, magic truffles, LSD, and even DMT. Astrodose offers Microdosing XP — magic truffles in a handy strip from The Netherlands. When you microdose on psilocybin magic truffles, it takes about 45-60 minutes to take effect. 

A Microdose Every (FEW) Days Keeps The Headaches Away

With that said, clinical research examined the correlation between use of psilocybin and the reduction of cluster headache symptoms. A majority of the sufferers claimed that psilocybin was as effective as the traditional major treatment of their condition. It does seem that psilocybin may be the best way to prevent headaches, due to its reported efficiency and lack of side effects. 

Therefore, microdosing a psychedelic (like magic truffles) is far easier and more efficient than other treatments which may require daily use and harbour negative side effects.

Microdosing Magic Truffles For Clusterheads 

To microdose for your cluster headaches (or any other severe headache), we recommend you take a dose of our Microdosing XP (fresh magics truffles at 1 gram per dose).

The Fadiman Method: You Take Your 1g Microdose Of Fresh Magic Truffles Every 3 Days

The Fadiman Method lets your brain rest in between doses, so it is not overly stimulated. Plus, it’s a good test to see how your body reacts to the microdose, every 3 days.  

If you find that you react well to the microdose, Astrodose recommends a second option — taking your dose every other day for a more continuous and noticeable effect. However, the great thing about microdosing is you can work out what suits you, and your routine.

Keeping Track Of Your Microdosing Progress 

It’s helpful that each week you are microdosing, you record how many cluster headaches you had, the pain level, the grams you took that week, and on which days. So, you have clear picture of your progress.

So..Microdosing Magic Truffles for Cluster Headaches?

Research into treating cluster headaches with psilocybin is only just beginning on the clinical end. Frankly, it can’t come soon enough; many clusterheads are frustrated with the current lack of options that traditional science has found for them. Short term treatments like ibuprofen, steroids, and opiates only tackle the symptoms, and have unappealing side effects.  

Magic truffles on the other hand, have long term results, because they have the potential to prevent headaches, even when on your non-microdose days. It is the most non-toxic substance possible, when compared to other medical treatments. Therefore, many take matters into their own hands — using online resources to find information on alternative treatments for their condition (like microdosing magic truffles!). Just remember that everyone’s body is different. What works for someone else might not be the right fit for you, and vice versa. But nevertheless, looking into microdosing is an excellent starting point.

If you decide to try Microdosing XP, which is our magic truffle microdose kit, remember to take things slow if you are aiming to treat your cluster headaches. Start by using the Fadiman method and journaling the process. Oh, and don’t forget to drink enough water ;-). 

Microdosing magic truffles de-stresses the mind. But the journey towards self improvement, in combination with microdosing, is also discovering your body. Good luck on your adventure! <3
