In 2020, Unlimited Sciences asked adults like you and me to enroll in a study about psilocybin use because the researchers wanted to analyze the “real world” implications, meaning not in a therapist’s office. The study followed 2,800+ participants (of the 8,000+ people who answered!) for up to three months after their mushroom trip. Participants, on average, took about 3.1 grams, and now, we have some answers. “Results from this study, the largest prospective survey of naturalistic psilocybin use to date, support the potential for psilocybin to produce lasting improvements in mental health symptoms and general wellbeing,” the researchers wrote in Frontiers in Psychiatry. 94% found the experience beneficial 50% improved their relationship with others following the experience 42% improved their physical routines in relation to alcohol, diet, or exercise
