Nutrition and diet

In the 3 days up to and including 2 days after the psilohuasca ceremony, you must avoid foods with a high tyramine content. This therefore concerns the following foods:

• Fruit varieties: No restriction
• Vegetables: No sauerkraut
• Herbs: No licorice, St. John's wort, or ginseng.
• Meat: No raw, smoked, or cheese-prepared meat or fish.
• Sliced meats: None of the sliced meats are allowed.
• Dairy: No cheese, no unpasteurized milk
• Seafood: No shrimp paste
• Notes: No restriction
• Bread: No sourdough bread
• Soy products: No tempeh, soy sauce (ketjap), fish sauce, Tamri, and Worcestershire sauce
• Drinks: No herbal tea with St. John's wort and/or licorice.
• Alcoholic beverages. Non-alcoholic beverages.
• Yeast: No Marmite, Tartex, brewer's yeast, bread drink, or Maggi.
• Ready-made meals: All non-fresh meals are not recommended. Even your own leftovers must be cooled down quickly and consumed within 24 hours.
• Fermented products: None of the fermented products are allowed.
• Candy: No licorice or products containing licorice root. Also avoid sugars.

Eat as little processed food as possible and always go for the freshest products. Preparing your own meals from fresh ingredients is much healthier in several respects and will contribute to an overall improvement in your (mental) health.

On the day itself

Do not use 5HTP, valerian, or other sedative herbs on the day of the ceremony. Also, do not consume caffeine or green tea. On the day of the ceremony, you must remain fasting and therefore not eat. However, drink water regularly. Do not worry about cravings or hunger. After drinking the psilohuasca tea, the hunger will soon disappear.
