Bejeeber 204 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I was kind of going off topic a bit over at DMT - First time finding an effective abortive, so I'm moving my tangent touting psychedlics as anti-inflammatories over here. If I understand correctly, the anti-inflammatory effect of psychedelics is thought to be mediated through the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor. Article - Psychedelics as Anti-Inflammatory Agents Article - "Research has shown that psychedelics, such as lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), have profound anti-inflammatory properties" Article - Scientists identify a powerful anti-inflammatory compound in psychedelic drugs 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bejeeber 204 Posted January 31 Author Share Posted January 31 I'll suggest those of us in busting mode could start thinking about and noting whether we've experienced other anti-inflammatory benefits. This could just be coincidence, and an account from one lone dude is as anecdotal as it gets, but personally I'm slap-happy to report that following the past couple busts, I've had inflammation symptoms such as lower back pain go poof. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jteira 129 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I think they are talking about the kind of inflammation that leads to heart disease or neurological diseases, not musculoskeletal pain. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bejeeber 204 Posted February 1 Author Share Posted February 1 I guess time (with more research, more experimentation) will tell. Meantime, there's this from https://www.verywellhealth.com/micro-dose-lsd-5077103: "....People with chronic pain diseases such as fibromyalgia, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis may, according to researchers, benefit from extremely low doses of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD or "acid").." 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bejeeber 204 Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 Article: Transforming psychedelics into mainstream medicines "......research has revealed that some psychedelics that activate the serotonin 2A receptor are potently anti-inflammatory at doses unlikely to result in psychoactivity." 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bejeeber 204 Posted February 21 Author Share Posted February 21 My Google News feed keeps presenting me with confirmation bias stories on the subject : PsyPost: Rapid antidepressant effects of the psychedelic ayahuasca linked to changes in inflammatory biomarkers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
