3-4 hours to let food digest, you may feel it if you take it sooner but it will likely come on slower and less intensely.
^what GB said. I'm one to fast all day before a trip. But, that's just how I came up with psyches. At least till your stomach is empty if you can't hang with a lil hunger. My usual regimen is to plan ahead, and if I can, eat highly nutritious food the evening before, proteins, carbs and high vitamin foods and usually some 5 htp. As little as possible the day of, (besides my caffeine, gotta have that).
Yeah, I've never heard of any reason to wait to take your acid. Do you think you're gonna get a cramp and drown? 0_o I generally eat as much as I can before I trip because I won't be able to stomach food, no matter how hungry I get, for the next 12 hours or so.
I generally recommend not eating before psychedelics regardless of plant/chem, the downsides of eating before an acid trip are probably not as prominent as they are for mushrooms and Mescaline cacti for some but it may effect individuals differently. 'Onset # Depending on how much and how recently one has eaten food, LSD generally takes 20 - 60 minutes (though sometimes as long as 2 hrs) to take effect. Although one rarely feels like eating while on LSD, and it is usually best to take it on an empty stomach, candy, fruit and sorbet do taste absolutely wonderful while tripping.' http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/lsd/lsd_info4.shtml Eating can cause perceptual (maybe real) nausea in some individuals and possible cramping, not exactly enjoyable effects to have while tripping. At the very least above shows it's going to slow down onset and probably the intensity of the effects.
I prefer not eating before. For me what i found out what works best (cause I always trip at night) wake up, enjoy a breakfast (usually toast and oj) eat a protein bar (i only do this on trip days) during the day, and at night keep a fresh supply of fruit around, cause those taste the best to me while tripping. I did however one day, eat a lot of wendys like 2-3 hours before tripping, i just waited for a while and took it with friends, didnt have nearly as strong as an effect (imo) but you will still have a good trip
If you mean LSD. You will be fine. The LSD doesn't make it to your stomach anyhow. It would get destroyed. Just wash your mouth out with water and drop it.
It's just like going on that roller coaster ride. You CAN have food in your stomach and be fine, but it's not the same experience. Who wants to be spinning plates with a full stomach? It's just not sensible, and you can eat on acid, I use to not do it, but just try it and it can be really fun. I just wouldn't suggest cooking anything on acid, your sense of temperature are gone...
I love cooking on LSD and I think once you get used to it it can be done safely. Just do whatever you are comfortable with on LSD during the experience. I have never paid attention to food in my stomach before a trip, not sure if it makes much of a difference.
i can say it makes a huge difference for me mainlly with onset time and and how long it takes to peak. when i take lsd on a full stomach it sets on very slow an takes alot longer than normal to hit my peak but like stated before me it will very from person to person
I have come to realize that dropping on an empty stomach is best, but that eating a healthy meal, preferably with caffeine at around the peak is wonderful, not only to experience the mind blowing act of ingesting raw matter into your body to convert into biomechanical energy, but it also rejuvinates the mind and body and allows more activities.
I ate a whole cantaloupe 4 hours in last time, along with an energy drink because I was feeling exhausted. best meal of my life by far, my friend also had pita bread we enjoyed. Bread is great because the starches are actually processed partly in your mouth and you can taste the sugars, especially when you know this and you are on acid when your brain can fill in the experience.
