What is best magic mushroom or psilocybin dosage?
The best dosage of magic mushrooms or psilocybin depends greatly on your goals, experience, and personal sensitivity. In the Netherlands, psilocybin is legally used in the form of magic truffles, and within the professional setting of psilocybin sessions or a truffle ceremony, dosage is carefully tailored based on predefined trip levels.
The right dosage depends on your desired trip level:
Low dose (trip level 1–2) – suitable for beginners, self-reflection, or light therapeutic goals. This corresponds to about 5–15 grams of fresh truffles (roughly 5–15 mg psilocybin).
Medium dose (trip level 3) – considered therapeutically most effective without being overwhelming. Usually around 20–30 grams of truffles.
High dose (trip level 4) – for deep inner work, ego dissolution, and spiritual insight. Typically 35–45 grams of fresh truffles.
Heroic dose (trip level 5) – for experienced users seeking full ego death and spiritual breakthroughs. More than 50 grams of truffles (60–90 mg psilocybin), with strong visual and transcendental effects.
