Dosage Guideline
“All things are poisons, for there is nothing without poisonous qualities. It is only the dose which makes a thing poison.”
Paracelsus
We want you to be extremely responsible and cognizant of ingesting the right dose, as our mission in SHAFAA is to help you heal, have a healthier mental state, and enjoy your life. If you review SHAFAA’s products and packaging, dosing has been such critical that it is creatively embedded into our brand identity and messaging to educate our consumers on what to expect and ensure no one takes a wrong dose of magic mushrooms by mistake. It is essential to add that the same dose can have dissimilar intensity effects on different people.
We recommend you to never ingest more than 5 grams of dry magic mushrooms (or equivalent dose in other derivatives/formats) in one take. A normal macro dose of psilocybin shrooms is 2.5 to 3.5 grams.
Micro-dosing means to take a miniscule/non intoxicating dose to achieve the benefits to health. It is the administration of doses so low that they will not provide a full body effect but high enough for a cellular response and positive change. A valid dose for microdosing is between 75 to 125 mg of magic mushrooms in each take. There are a few microdosing protocols proposed by James Fadiman, Paul Stamets and The Third Wave educational platform for psychedelics.
