Hey all, I've tripped around 7 times, and I'm popping 2 grams before a show and I was wondering if Vitamin C actually enhances the trip or not? I've heard from friends it lengthens it. I've tried taking it before but I couldn't figure out if it made a difference. Thank you.
I've heard from a number of reliable friends that it increases the trip, and I've also spoken to a couple scientists that say that Vitamin C and Psilocybin/Psilocin have no relation what-so-ever, so I can't give a straight answer. But ever time I've taken shrooms I always suck on one of those Halls Vitamin C drops while I wait.
That vitamin c crap is all BS. Urban legend. In fact, i read once that some scientific test was conducted between vitamin c and lsd. When the test subjects (probably animals) were given a gigantic amount of vitamin c at the same time they were administered the lsd, it actually negated the trip. But that's lsd, and it was a huge dose of vitamin c. So I'd have to call bullshit on the OJ thing. You gotta remember it's all in your head... check out your mind.
Yeah, I forgot to say that the scientists that I spoke with said that taking the Vitamin C may have increased their trip purely because the user believed it would.
i think that vitamin C is sort of a placebo for people to think they will trip harder as well. I always drink some orange juice while im shrooming, just tastes really good
a agree w/ rhasta.penguin when i tripp nothing seems to be better than oj, i don't think it increases your trip though
I'm not positive if OJ does anything but i've tripped before without OJ and then with OJ and when i had to vitamin C it seemed to last longer and was pretty intense. Im not sure though, Plus I originally heard that from a very reliable source. Plus if it is a placebo I don't mind that, its a good one.
it hasn't lengthened or enhanced my trips at all. but it has made my closed eye visuals a little bit brighter. that's all though, really.
