Can microdosing actually help you?

You may have recently heard from that one friend of yours about ‘micro-dosing’: the practice of regularly taking tiny doses of psychedelics like LSD over a few weeks or months.

Your friend possibly claims that it has helped him focus better and clear his mind, but does micro-dosing actually have any health benefits?

To discuss the effects of microdosing, I’m joined by Vince Polito, Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Cognitive Sciences at Macquarie University.

You can read Dr Polito’s writing on the subject at The Conversation.
