I read here on the nexus about a LSD, raw cacao combo and was accused of jumping to conclusions about this stuff not doing much.
I'm sure most of you are familiar with this topic, and have seen it by now on the nexus.
Anyways, I made my own decided to give it a try, to see what the hype is all about.
I bought raw cacao nibs that have undergone minimal processing. By minimal I mean they were just taken out of the shell. Not powdered, not a paste, but still ready to eat as they are.
Since they contained no additional ingredients but cacao I can tell you that they smelled and tasted absolutely disgusting, but I did manage to get them down in the combo with some unsweetened coconut milk (the real one, not the watered down vitamin fortified ones you see at the supermarket) blended together in a blender.
I had a total of 200 grams of it and drank it in two occasions. One right away, one an hour later.
Boy I didn't expect it to be so damn filling, but hey I wasn't hungry anymore after that so who am I to complain?
It seems from the topic here on nexus, and some reports at erowid that it should produce some psychoactive effect, one report at erowid stating it is even psychedelic.
I can't seem to feel it, and I'm guessing I've had enough of it.
I still think it can be a healthy addition to your diet, but other than that where is that bliss everybody is talking about?
Does it kick in ridiculously late? Haven't I had enough of it to feel the effects? Is that really it? Am I expecting too much from it?
Worth to note I do include some spices in my diet daily which might or might not produce psychoative effects. One of them is garam masala, a blend with spices that contain an unique alkaloidal profile that supposedly heats up the body, sharpens focus, improves mood and so on.
I eat that daily and still I don't feel like I'm burning up, my focus is still a wreck, and mood, well... You can kinda see from my posts that I was and stayed a cranky ass motherf***er that doesn't know how to help himself but still tries anyways.
Can anyone provide me some insight at why the hype? It seems from my experience that all these wonder spices, superfoods, adaptogens and god knows what supplements that "help" people, are about equal to placebo.
