The Stamets Stack combines the medicinal mushroom Lion’s Mane with niacin (vitamin B3) and psilocybin (the active compound of magic mushrooms or magic truffles). Stamets came up with the combination of psilocybin mushrooms and Lion’s Mane for its dual capacity to create new neurons and neural pathways in the brain, and also to repair existing neurological damage. Stamets has incorporated niacin in this stack for its potential to more effectively distribute the psilocybin and Lion’s Mane into the brain thereby enhancing the brain-boosting benefits of both substances. What does Lion's Mane do? Lion’s Mane is nature’s brain food; it stimulates the brain to produce more NGF (Nerve Growth Factors). These are responsible for the production, growth, and maintenance of neurons in the brain. NGF is specifically responsible for myelin sheath production, a layer around the brain cells that protects and increases the conduction of the stimuli between cells. Unfortunately, as we age, these sheaths can become damaged, and the conduction speed becomes much slower, leading to the deterioration of brain functions (as in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease). In other words, Lion’s Mane helps to keep the brain vital and healthy.  Evidence of the brain healing potential of Lion’s Mane comes from two lab studies where researchers intentionally damaged the brains of mice through the introduction of a neurotoxin. They observed the mice’s behavior and noted that they exhibited dementia-like symptoms. Upon introducing Lion’s Mane, the effects of the neurotoxin reversed. Another study on Lions Mane mushrooms confirms it is a promising supplement for the aging brain, activating neurogenesis and increased neurotrophic pathways. Additionally, Lion’s Mane contains antioxidants that support the overall health of your cells. The formula is simple: healthier cells, better energy transportation, more energy! Benefits of Lion's Mane Increases memoryIncreases focusIncreases concentrationAnti-inflammatorySupports gut healthImproves moodIncreases energy levelsSupports insulin sensitivityStacking Lion's Mane with niacin and psilocybin At the level of the microdose, psilocybin has a sub-perceptual effect. Within that hardly noticeable effect, it has the potential to reduce anxiety and irritability, enhance cognitive functions and creativity, increase socializing, and provide a greater sense of well-being. Through this greater sense of well-being, our immune system gets stronger too.  Stacking Lion’s Mane within the Stamets Stack protocol may also promote self-awareness, creativity, cognition, health, well-being, and recognition of the interconnectedness of all life. Stamets believes the Lion’s Mane, psilocybin and niacin stacking formula should be considered, and made available, as any other vitamin for supplement, claiming that its neurogenerative effect (over several generations) has the potential to initiate ‘the next quantum leap in human consciousness.’ Stacking Benefits Reduced anxiety and depressionStabalized moodEnhanced creativityRegeneration of visual and auditory neuronsReduced irritabilityRelief from PTSD symptomsReduced incidence of neuropathyIncreased ability to socialize, empathize, and feel courageousmediated effects of aging on the brain enhanced self-awarenessgreater sense of interconnectionHow to stack Lion's Mane according to Paul Stamets Stacking protocol Microdosing with Paul Stamets stacking protocol is simple. The stacking protocol looks as follows: DAYS 1-4: Microdosing days 0.1 to 0.2 grams of dried magic (psilocybin) mushrooms or 0.5 to 1.5 grams of fresh magic truffles 500mg to 1000mg of high-quality Lion’s Mane extract powder (or manufacturer’s recommended dose)50 –200 mg of niacin Vit B3 ‘Flush’DAY 5-7: Non-microdosing days No microdoseOptional: NiacinOptional: Continue implementing Lion’s Mane CYCLE: continue for four weeks RESET: Stop microdosing with psilocybin for two to four weeks. You may continue supplementing with Lion’s Mane during this reset. Potential risks of microdosing psilocybin mushrooms Magic mushrooms are not addictive nor physiologically toxic in high doses. The minimal risk for negative side effects is further reduced when microdosing. While there remains minimal clinical data, anecdotal evidence and research surveys suggest that microdosing magic mushrooms is safe for most people with a few potential exceptions: People who are allergic to fungiPeople with a history of psychiatric conditions such as psychosis, schizophrenia or other dissociative conditions/statesPeople with a history of heart valve problems*People dealing with intense active trauma or griefPeople taking Lithium or TramadolDuring pregnancy and breastfeedingSome possible negative side effects include: FatigueNauseaHeadacheAnxietyTinnitus (it may or may not increase)Further reading: Safety and risks of microdosing in general When is taking niacin not recommended: Hypersensitivity to vitamin B3Liver diseasesUlcerus pepticum (ulcer of stomach and/or duodenum)GoutAlcoholismVery low blood pressureDecreased kidney functionDiabetes
