Scientist Recommends Taking LSD For Breakfast. Yes, You Read That Correctly [1]

[2]Forget muesli, taking acid could be better for your health.

It may sound like a headline from satirical site The Onion, but psychedelics expert Dr James Fadiman Ph.D is deadly serious. The respected scientist claims a small dose of LSD with your morning cereal can help you be more productive, effective, happier and creative, among other things.

Fadiman started looking into LSD’s effects on creativity [3] back in the early Sixties, before the government made psychedelics illegal and stopped funding for scientific research. He had a life-changing experience when his old Harvard professor Richard Alpert (now known as Ram Dass) fed him magic mushrooms in a Paris cafe. Fadiman saw psychedelic research as his calling, and worked hard for the next few years to demonstrate how LSD could help with a wide range of issues: from psychotherapy and addiction treatment to artistic ability, happiness and spiritual evolution. Fadiman is co-founder of and teacher at the Institute for Transpersonal Psychology and has taught at San Francisco State, Brandeis and Stanford.
