Psychedelic trip, caffeine and taurine
Why it's better to avoid caffeine and taurine
Not enough scientific information is currently available to say with certainty whether there are any other products that conflict with psilocybin besides caffeine and taurine.
However, it is known that certain substances, such as MAOIs (e.g., hard cheese, brewer’s yeast, certain medications), can interfere with the action of psilocybin and lead to unwanted side effects, such as an increased risk of anxiety during the psychedelic journey.
On top of that, caffeine is addictive and is actually, like taurine, stress-inducing. If you often feel stressed or rushed or regularly experience anxiety in your life, stop using these substances. Better for everyone to avoid these substances altogether. Caffeine and psilocybin are two psychoactive substances that are widely used or consumed.
Anxiety during the psychedelic journey
In addition, taurine is an amino acid with approximately the same effect. Any of these substances can have side effects on their own, but when combined with psychedelic substances such as psilocybin, they can result in anxiety and nervousness during the psychedelic journey.
Therefore, it is important to be careful and avoid these substances before undergoing a psychedelic journey or inner journey.
Possible feelings of anxiety always subside when the psilocybin wears off. You actually always make your way back home without fear.
Psilocybin for the psychedelic journey
Psilocybin is a psychoactive substance found in some psychedelic truffles and mushroom species. It is a powerful hallucinogen that can temporarily alter a person’s perception of time and space, as well as their emotional and mental state, during the psychedelic journey.
With proper dosage and guidance, psilocybin can also help treat anxiety, addiction, burnout and depression. If you suffer from anxiety, burnout, depression or addiction, we recommend you read about the Program for Transformation.
Caffeine
Caffeine is one of the most common psychoactive substances in the world. It is found in coffee, various teas, soft drinks and energy drinks.

Caffeine is a psychoactive substance that affects our central nervous system. It works by blocking the adenosine receptors in our brain, stimulating our nervous system and increasing our brain activity. This makes us feel more alert and awake, which is why many people drink coffee to concentrate or stay awake. This is also why drinking coffee or caffeinated energy drinks is so addictive.
Although caffeine is sometimes considered a harmless stimulant, its use can have negative consequences in certain situations. For example, it can cause anxiety and nervousness, especially when combined with other stimulants such as taurine or during a psychedelic trip. Therefore, it is important to be aware of the effects of caffeine and use it in moderation.
Therefore, do not drink coffee or other caffeine-containing substances or use preparations containing caffeine in the days before going on a psychedelic trip.
Our advice is to stop taking caffeine two days before the truffle ceremony. For sensitive people, it is even better to stop five days before the truffle ceremony.
Taurine
Taurine is an amino acid mainly found in our bodies in the brain, heart, muscles and blood cells. It is involved in many physiological processes, such as the regulation of metabolism, the immune system and the nervous system.
Like caffeine, taurine is often used in energy drinks and in mineral and dietary supplements because of its stimulant effect. It is often promoted as a means to reduce fatigue and improve performance. However, unlike caffeine, taurine does not have a stimulating effect on the nervous system and does not increase brain activity.
Although taurine is generally considered safe, in some cases it can cause side effects such as nausea, headache and dizziness. In combination with other stimulants such as caffeine, taurine can also cause anxiety and nervousness in everyday life in sensitive people. Even during a psychedelic trip or journey, these substances can do just that.
Therefore, do not use taurine-containing substances or use preparations containing taurine in the days before going on a psychedelic trip.
Our advice is to stop taking taurine two days before the ceremony. For sensitive people, it is even better to stop five days before the truffle ceremony.
