 I have a friend doing this atm. Changed his life. I’ve given it serious thought but afraid to get something laced or improperly dosed. Approval would reduce the risk involved and benefit everyone. 
 wouldn't a testing kit take care of that? 
 It would, theoretically, but it’s small doses pre-capsuled. I guess if I was willing to test, weigh, and make capsules myself… 
 Its pretty easy to find reputable well-regarded vendors with a little research 
 I was reading how micro-dosing could help Alzhimers (my Mom). Not a cure. but emotional help. Problem was, it's not my thing and certainly not hers.  She would not approve of an all out trip.  Plus, she is advanced enough that it could be a bad experience.  However, I/we have no experience and no way of knowing what a "micro-dose" of shrooms would even be.  Then, not being connected to source.... there is prison.

Something so effective and so simple yet so far out of reach.  It's criminal.
