Microdosing: Just a Placebo?! 😱
Are the benefits of microdosing (psilocybin, acid, or DMT) down to the placebo effect? A recent study from Imperial College London would seem to indicate so. The study uses a self-blinding “citizen science” approach and has billed as the largest placebo-controlled study on psychedelics to date. Its findings have sent shockwaves across the media… but how much of this is truly warranted?
