Nausea and vomiting are common side effects of consuming psychedelic mushrooms, also known as magic mushrooms. Lemon tekking is a popular method used to prepare these mushrooms, which can enhance the effects of psilocybin and reduce the likelihood of experiencing nausea. Nausea from magic mushrooms usually occurs within five hours of ingestion, most often after about 30 minutes, and lasts anywhere up to six hours or until all other symptoms subside.
Magic mushrooms can cause changes in heart rate, blood pressure, and can lead to nausea or vomiting. Long-term use may alter brain chemistry and cause persistent visual disturbances. Eating before taking the psychedelic can cause nausea and even vomiting. They affect the brain’s prefrontal cortex, which regulates abstract thinking, thought analysis, mood, and perception. Symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain begin 5 hours or more after ingestion.
Some types of mushrooms contain psilocybin and psilocyn, substances that can cause hallucinations. When used in large enough doses, these mushrooms have effects that can be potentially life-threatening or severe. Symptoms of mushroom poisoning range from upset stomach, drowsiness, confusion, heart, liver, and kidney damage.
Psilocybin comes from certain types of psilocybe mushrooms and is metabolized in the body to the active drug psilocyn, also present in many of the same mushrooms. Some scientific studies suggest that magic mushrooms may be a useful treatment for mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, and substance use. The symptoms usually appear within 20 minutes to 4 hours of ingesting the mushrooms, including nausea, vomiting, cramps, and diarrhea, which normally pass.

How to never get nauseous on Magic Mushrooms? Of course you will never be guaranteed a nauseous/emesis free trip. But there …
📹 Why do Magic Mushrooms Cause Nausea?
Ever wonder why eating magic mushrooms made you feel so woozy?? There’s actually a few reasons as to why that is!
Here’s my method when using dried material: I weigh the dose, then grind it to powder in a blade type coffee grinder. Then, I fill 0 or 00 size gelcaps with the dose. The massive increase in surface area and the fact that the material is now a powder makes it very easy to digest. The addition of some strong lemonade will help as the citric acid helps break down the cell walls faster than just using stomach juices, alone. Eating a light, healthy meal a couple hours before, as you say, also helps. I’ve never had even a fleeting feeling of nausea since adopting this method. I hope this method is one you’ll try. Let me know how it goes for you, if you do try it!
6th tip is VERY important. you might believe it or not, but these substances are living beings. You gotta have a RELATIONSHIP with it. Talk to it before, ask for insight. These are mystical medecines used by shamans and druids traditionnally in many cultures. Even if you’re not particularly spiritual, just put some intention before ingesting ! It always helps ! Thanks for all the tips !
I love the psychedelic community, been microdosing for three months and I absolutely love it thanks for the tips and you absolutely right about your mindset eating them treat them with respect and look for insight, as for nausea that’s normally my que to know they’ve kicked in and soon a lovely body high is next and and I’ve discovered for me .5 grams is a nice sweet spot for a light and very functional trip sometimes I’ll spread a few grams out over a few hours and just kinda sit in a mild trip for hours, but tonight I’m going deep with five grams and a blind fold 😆 should be interesting
7:58 Really appreciate the empathy in that reasoning, I don’t really care for the “spirituality” stuff approach but i can find a logical reasoning for how having a positive attitude would affect some people’s psychological state, and whether it’s real or a placebo the effect is still there psychologically.
The nausea is often caused by ‘knots’ in the intestines. If you jab your hand into the area effected you’ll discover the muscles are basically locked in a hard ball just like a muscle cramp. If you push around and try different positions you can usually get them to release. This is true without psychedelic’s too but with consuming fungi in liquids, it is way less likely to trigger these kind of cramps for people. My favorite way to consume is powdered into OJ, less prep work and arguably tastes much better than mushroom tea. Btw great article!
I never ever feel bad on a trip, never ever had stomace problems and i always trip alone.. Listen 2 youe body and brain the day of using, always listen 2 your body and brain but speciaal on that day.. I like 2 eat what i like that day, soup, some bread and fruit… I stop eating around 1 hr and a half. I love the taste of truffels. Always make me a glass of lemonade but i put it in a thermosbottle 🫗 When i’m landing throughout the trip sometimes, i drink some and enjoy my yawn (always yawn a lot between the highs and lows😊) Papertrips, paddo’s, truffels and my THC olie (use that one everyday) is amazing for your brain. I love my life and its amazing we can experementing with nature ❤🫶🏼 Much love 🌏
I make licorice or ginger peach tea, grate a shitload of fresh ginger into it, and a squeeze of lemon juice and honey after steeping. Even on 5+g I’ve had essentially no nausea, and I have Crohns and take Zofran like candy. Intention is the most important factor, though, in my experience. I’ve had countless “bad trips” (grateful for them now), where I didn’t respect the medicine and it wrecked me.
Alright, my advice. and take this sound. I have been everywhere from,5g to 10g of cubes. When you get that feeling where you think you’re going to die, just try to go with it, and once you get past that come up, its not bad at all. and you will learn something. I think the best tip here is really, like you said, number 6. I’ll be real, they don’t always taste great, but its like a mental kung fu. it took me many trips to where I could be comfortable and not have a bad trip. And always go into it knowing you WILL learn something. For me, it really helped my faith a lot. I literally felt God tell me that if I was going to die that He would’ve taken my life already. That’s my personal experience.
Agree psychedelic substance does give you nausea as pure psilocybin or 4aco dmt will give you nausea. However filtering out the fungi cells will reduce nausea a bit. If you disagree keep the waste try eating it a few days later you will not trip if you have extracted it but you will get nausea. . If you make it ginger tea your doing two things at once. Oh and add the gent after filtering. Eat food that is vasodilator to counter act it. Watermelon 🍉 also feed the brain glucose for the trip.
I did my first micro dose on Tuesday. I cleaned my room nicely, sprayed the room with essential oil and lit a candle, settled in a comfortable spot, put on my loop in my ears, prayed and thanked the truffles for coming into my life and took it. Literally 10 minutes after, this wicked woman here started banging and using the vacuum making so much noise. I got so irritated I wanted to smash her head in. So I went outside even though it was cold… I sat outside and when the sun came out for 5 minutes I prayed and thanked the sun for illuminating me for a bit and I suddenly started seeing vivid colors when I closed my eyes and was able to pretty much hear sounds of the birds, the neighbors talking, the plane etc… every sound was so sharp, then soon as I was enjoying it she started again with the vacuum. I won’t say my trip was horrible but this woman is such an evil person that she purposely makes noise when she knows I’m meditating…. Do you have any tips for me? Should I microdose in the evening instead when everyone is asleep? I also saw an image where I was in the forest and saw the sun penetrating through, the trees were so tall and there was a stone covered in moss. It was brief less than a minute but so beautiful.
Doing 2g for my first time later this week. I’ll be doing this alone while chilling to some beautiful music, fruits and maybe have a walk in the forest. I’ll be trying out these tips, since I can’t physically vomit due to a stomach surgery. Dry heaving is never fun! 🤞 What about anti nausea pills btw?
I have also noticed that not eating enough beforehand makes my trip go dark. It intensifies the feelings of emptiness and ungroundeness. Eating easy to digest but high calorie foods are the best. I love that he lists salads, nuts, quinoa!! What I have learned along my mushroom journeys; 1. I love using digestive enzymes to fully digest my mushrooms and reduce nausea. 2. Alternatively, you can use vitamin C to helps break down and dissolve the mushrooms. Take anywhere from 100mg to 500mg. Keep in mind acids (such as vitamin C) break down psilocybin into its psychoactive state psilocin. This will intensify your trip as well as decrease the length of your trip. 3. I enjoy using a coffee grinder to turn my mushrooms into mushroom powder. I put them in empty vegetable capsules 4. I haven’t tried it yet but many say lemon tekk is a good way to reduce nausea. You put mushroom powder into lemon juice, which again, helps break down the mushrooms 😊
I tried shrooms for the 1st time yesterday and before the peak I just felt so nauseous. I washed my hands with dove soap and even that smell got me so sick. I kept telling myself I don’t. Want to throw up so I didn’t but music helped so what I’m trying to say. Is maybe next time on friday cuz today’s monday I’ll try ginger
Thank you for this article🙏 I have also found drinking a good quality chicken broth heated a ( the kind that is homemade or you can see the collagen in the broth when it is in the refrigerator) right before taking mushrooms helps with nausea & hydrating with coconut water while on the visionquest helps as well . Peace
I think that everyone has a different reaction but I agree that I don’t like starving myself before tripping. For one at least for me the only time my stomach turns is when I do starve myself, it actually affects me even if I go out for a regular meal, I’ll eat like 5 bites and be full and not feel well. So if I starve myself and then toss down some shrooms it really upsets my stomach. Lemon tekking helps but it doesn’t get rid of it completely. When it starts to get really bad (close to puking, but I never have) I’ll just start smoking weed to help the nauseau. It kind of helps but again doesn’t completely rid me of it, I just think that it’s part of the overall process of shrooming.
I always love your guides. After a trip I feel stomach pain when I eat or even sometimes from the truffles. How do you prevent stomach pain after a trip? I don’t have it during the trip at all. I ate mint chocolate 5 hours after a trip start and I started to feel the pain. Then I ate a pizza (healthy one without mozzarella ) and a coke. Let me know if anyone knows why? Tried this last time where I ate frozen truffles which didn’t work and had no effects other than stomach pain.
it’s weird because the first time I tried mushrooms, I chopped them into little pieces, dropped them in tea, let them sit for about 10 min or so, after that I drank the tea and after 10 min I already got hit like a train and I noticed on the come up, if i moved a lot I would get nauseous but that wore of within 30 minutes and then everything was great 🙂
When I was young maybe 7th grade I took shrooms with a friend maybe 2.5 then later he was eating them like popcorn passed me another gram not knowing you aren’t suposed to dose twice and I was already trippen didn’t really need it either but long story short I ended up having seizures and threw up causing them to have a bad trip so they just took me home dropped me off and left me & every time I have ever tried shrooms again I’ve been too scared to go over 1 g even got them in the form of a candy bar before but every time I have a bad trip and get the vibes that I’m about to have a seizure or something but lsd on the other hand has been nothing short of amazing for me everyone I tell about my Shroom experience thinks I’m crazy or was on other drugs to or something but that’s just not the case
Tip #4: what if I’m carnivore?? I’m wondering because I’m preparing for a big trip with respectful intent of healing ME/CFS and some other things, however I’m on an Animal Based only diet, and meat is my LIFE for me!! The absolute healthiest thing I’ve done in my life in the last 17 years is going carnivore and now I’m micro dosing PE Psilocybin, but am preparing for the big 5.0 I never consume any additional carbs or sugars what so ever, ZERO! So I assume this will potentially hit very hard. But even at .45 grams of PE, I can not feel anything yet. While it has severely improved my overall mood (combined with Red Light Therapy/Infrared and Nearinfrared), I can not feel an immediate influence of any kind, feel fine to drive and go about my day as usual.. Since these are the strongest Psilocybin around, I was sure that I’d feel it above .2gr. Anyway, I’m just curious how a good steak before a 5G trip could hinder the experience in any way?? Legit question! And thanks for sharing..
Okay so yesterday I had my first truffles (I am Dutch but this comment may be helpful). I had about 10 grams of Mexicana and I made a reaction article of me eating them and it was so bad and I kept saying it. I just kept telling how bad it was. I took the rest with peanut butter because I couldn’t stand the taste anymore. I was like: this is definitely NOT the kind of truffle you find on pasta!! YIKES!! Well… 30 minutes later I puked and puked and puked. I just couldn’t stop. I followed all the tips of eating light and all (except for the fact that I had some soup right before) but the nausea was INSANE! The trip on itself was wonderful and I had amazing visions, but the taste was stuck in my throat and the sickness basically ruined half of the experience. So wow… If the last tip actually works then I think it’s pretty cool. It’s cool to think that it’s so spiritual because the things I saw during the trip were definitely a mad spiritual experience (especially for Mexicana)!
I ate about half of 15 grams on Friday (followed by the other half in a tea) and when initially coming up (on the first half I’d eaten) my mental attitude really helped with the nausea: I mean I told myself calmly that “you took a drug and you knew this was a possibility, you’re going to be ok, just relax, this is part of the normal experience” and as I said that to myself the nausea and anxiety about feeling nauseous reduced almost immediately! It didn’t alleviate it 100% of course but it helped a huge amount. I think when people begin to feel sick and then panic about being sick it really makes it worse, whereas accepting and understanding the feeling in a positive way helps to reduce it. That was my experience anyway, and I have you to thank for that because I’d watched your “preparation for the first time” article beforehand which stayed in my mind and helped me to remain calm, so thank you very much!! Also I believe drinking the second half in the tea helped reduce the nausea from the first half I ate, that may be a coincidence or a placebo effect but maybe simply having the extra liquid in your stomach softens the blow a bit? I’m definitely going to drink the whole pack next time anyway! Peace! ✌️
I soak my dried media in boiling ethanol for 2hrs. Then, strain out the media and pour the liquid into a glass baking tray with a fan blowing on it. Wait until most of the liquid is evaporated and you’re left with a sticky resin consistency. Then put the resin in a dropper bottle and fill the bottle with more ethanol. Congrats you’ve now made an alcohol based tincture. I sqeeze the desired amount onto my tongue and let it absorb through my mouth so it never reaches my digestive tract. But yea, if consuming the media directly or from a tea, a light meal 1-2hrs prior works good. If needed ginger tea with honey helps. If you hate the taste of ginger try heating some water and putting a sqeeze of lemon and some honey in it. Warm honey, lemon water helps me.
Hey guys if you go to an urgent care, md now or your primary, tell them that you’ve been having really bad nausea lately and ask about Zofran, shit works like a miracle, they’ll prescribe you a few tablets which dissolve under your tongue and work right away! I’m taking it if I get nauseous next weekend on my trip
holy shit, i wish i would of seen this article a hour ago before i threw up 30 min after ingesting and the nausea was just super intense, (rn dealing with a sedative stomach) i didn’t think they’d be like that bad it got to the point where like it was to much and i was alone so i kinda freaked out so i bailed out and threw up, i tried lsd a few weeks ago and also threw up some ice cream i had eaten the day before but i felt sick from the shrooms i wish i would of held it in for a half hour o hour more at least because an hour after that i fell asleep to confirm i wasn’t tripping now i’m here regretting it lmao, that’s for the tips i’ll get note next time
I am someone who believed i can never experience a trip of magic mushroom,because i have a weak stomach, but thanks to you that now i had my first experience and it is awesome. I prepared my body with the tips you gave here and it worked for me. Thank you brother. If you ever decide to come to maldives 🇲🇻, please let me know. We should hangout.
Your last rule you’re right, But I would say it more has to do with your intentions, So if your intentions is still I know these are going to taste like crap but I’m going to pretend and say that they taste good, It’s still going to go off of whatever your intentions were. That’s the hard part if you can learn to change your intention starting out it will always go better overall and that goes for everything in life not just with mushrooms
I like eating fruit before hand to keep my stoamch lite and sometimes i take zofran if it gets to bad its a persciption beausia medicine that has no mental effect. I got some blue honey breaking down but it beed about another week ive heard the honeys enzyms break the chitin down sonce you stomach has a very hard time and is what is thought to cause alot of nausia thats why teas work also .imma try lemon tekking the honey before putting it in tea.
Grind up your dose with a coffee grinder. Then, Clean out the coffee grinder so nobody has a surprise trip later. Put your dose in a small glass with enough real lemon juice to just cover your shrooms. Mix it around well so there’s no dry shrooms with just a little leftover juice on top. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes. If you need to you can add some water or juice then drink it down. This will cut the time to lift off considerably by the way, so make sure you’re where you’re wanting to be when you drink it.
#1 is incorrect, the insoluble fiber (chitin) is understood to be the source of the nausea. Undigested fiber ferments as it passes and off gasses noxious substances the irritate the gi tract, which is why boiling, acid, or digestive enzymes alleviate the nausea, while having heavy food on the stomache worsens the effect (digestive enzymes are already being used).
Not only does shrooms make me nauseous, they make me shit too. The first time I took them, about an hour later I felt I had to go to the bathroom. The instant I sat down out of nowhere I started violently dry heaving but I was also violently pooping. Thankfully nothing actually came out of my mouth…. I should say, I tried shrooms on a totally empty stomach. When I had shrooms again after I had eaten, I wasnt as bad but the nausea kept coming back over and over for the entirety of the trip
SWIM once washed down ground up shrooms with a Guinness and for some reason they didn’t have nausea, they had a really anxious come up but that’s not unusual for them since they are pretty tightly wound but once they got to Woodstock they felt great and kinda spiritual, no visuals since I think they were eating them a few times in a row but a lot of clarity and they poured their heart out to their significant other
You awesome dude, but when it comes to food recommendation.. you’re just sharing your experience, salads and quinoa is the number one thing that would kill me before trips, just basic and SMALL meal of bread and butter keeps my stomach (and many others) quite, but again this is not true for everyone. I would say that narrowing down the verity of foods before a trip would help figuring out what makes you feel better and what makes you nausous. Cheers.
For some people however, vegatables can make one very gassy and bloated actually, make sure the veggies are cooked if you are going to eat vegetables and eat lots of meat actually. meat is fantastic for ones digestive system; protein style is very suitable for this idea. Fish, steak, chicken soup. Potato soup:)
Struggle with come-ups? Tip 2: Pre Dose Funk – take a fraction of your full dose 30-45min minutes prior. Say you are going to take 3.5g’s next time you trip but you know it’ll cause you nausea. Take 0.5g’s first and then 30-45min later take your full dose. The ‘come-up’ is a reaction/process your body will only go through initially. So by introducing a small amount ahead of time, by the time you’re taking the ‘full’ dose the body is changing it’s reaction. The doses are close enough together that the trip is basically the same. Just know tolerance builds fast and arguably redosing after 2.5hrs is a diminishing return the longer the time scale after.
6 tips from my experience. 1: What you do is wait till the dragon in the sky appears. 2: Close your eyes and follow the fiber optic spaghetti noodles that flail about in the dark fractal abis. It leads to the palace of wisdom. 3: Now this is a scary place so you need to let your mind race. 4: Try with all of your power to find the Skittles. 5: Get in them there Skittles. Your neck is protected. 6: Tell the cops to do their job. Don’t go down there though. They’ll take you the orange place. Your stomach will feel good for sure. Like bananas and peanut butter.
