You may have lost your car/home keys for the third time today! If you want to avoid a mental fog and keep your mind sharp, then you should try out some nootropics!
“Want to keep your mind sharp and keep your brain working well?”
Since my early years, I have been taking nootropics. Yes, I have taken drugs “before” you could even call them drugs.
More often than not they are natural nootropics! Just like coffee (caffeine), red wine (resver), dark chocolate (choline), etc.
I believe these nootropics are like the lubricants used by our car engines. So if you are looking for mushroom nootropics then this article is definitely for you.
What are nootropics?
Nootropics are also known as smart drugs, cognitive enhancers, or memory enhancers. These drugs come in the form of vitamins, minerals, herbs, and other natural supplements.
They may be marketed as nutritional supplements or alternative medicines.
The best nootropics are supposed to improve memory and mental functions such as focus, motivation, and attention span. You will have more energy and be able to concentrate better.
What are the mushroom nootropics?
Mushrooms are a psychedelic drug that can make you feel very relaxed, euphoric, or even hallucinate. Mushrooms nootropics contain psilocybin and psilocin which are highly psychoactive components.
It is now clear that the psilocybin in mushrooms can elevate the mind by altering conscious thought processes.
Psilocybin binds to the serotonin receptors in the brain thus creating an altered state of consciousness.
Here are the top 5 natural nootropics to enhance your mind:
