 Fact OR Myth

Ingesting shrooms along with orange juice gets you higher (citrus reacting with the mushrooms).
Just wondering, as eating them normal is less enjoyable and a time consuming process.
--------------------
We live together, we act on, and react to, one another; but always and in all circumstances we are by ourselves. The martyrs go hand in hand into the arena; they are crucified alone. Embraced, the lovers desperately try to fuse their insulated ecstasies into a single self-transcendence; in vain. By its very nature every embodied spirit is doomed to suffer and enjoy in solitude. Sensations, feelings, insights, fancies--all these are private and, ex- cept through symbols and at second hand, incommunicable. We can pool information about experiences, but never the experiences themselves. From family to nation, every human group is a society of island universes.

There are different schools of thought regarding the subject. Some say it expidites the effects, others say it dulls it, and still others say it does nothing for them but hide the taste. I'm sure a lot of it is opinionated and depends on person to person and how each person perceives the effects.

I took a Vitamin C capsule one night that was like 1666% of your daily vitamin C and i think what happened was that all the extra acids broke down the shrooms at a faster rate because i remember coming up quite fast and coming down really hard after only 4 hours, and the trip was the hardest of my life... only on 3 grams (and i've eaten 4.5g)... soo i kind of believe it... it definitely was burning my stomache the whole trip though and i had a sour, acidic taste in my mouth the whole time...

i think you just had a good shrooms... there is no evidince of this.
also, you can't assume vitamin c is the one thing in orange juice that affects your trip/psilocybin.
but,
it was an interesting story.

There really isn't any proof. Some say that antioxidant properties of vitamin C stop the psilocin from deteriorating after ingested. The way I look at it... It's not going to hurt you to take vitamin C with shrooms. In fact you should have vitamin C in your diet everyday. So if you feel if it makes you trip harder, more power to you.

My friend, who is extremely well informed and scoffs at people who even hint at some stupid drug myth, swears by orange juice. We were tripping at a waterpark (don't ask, it was fun though:) ) and when he couldn't get orange juice, he was upset. He trips a lot and really believes in it, I dunno.

It's not the OJ that gets you higher, it's the fact that they grind up the mushroom so small and the acid in the juice starts a first extraction. If you grind the musrhoom up into a powerder it Hits you quicker versus eating a dried whole one and it taking longer to digest. So, if you grind up the mushroom in juice in a blender it will be digested faster. Later.

Maybe if you truly beleive in something, the placebo effect gets you higher. Its such an experience drinking orange juice while tripping, it seems like ingesting such an amazing substance must have some significance to your trip, so you expect to trip harder, and sure enough you do. The fact that trips come in waves probably helps this idea. You drink orange juice, and then the next "wave" that hits reinforces the presumption that the OJ makes you trip harder.

I think it is probably all in your head... but the OJ sure does taste good. 
Grapefruit juice is another matter. I do not know if it potentiates mushrooms, but it does have a boosting effect with a lot of medications.

As far as I'm concerned OJ covers up the taste very well if you're prone to a weak stomach and you can't stand the taste of mush. Other than that, I feel nothing different.

it's a myth. grapefruits and grapefruit juice can boost some types of drugs, the opiates being one of them, but not mushrooms.
and OJ doesn't help with anything other than masking the taste and washing them down.

Actualy citric acid thoereticaly would help preserve the Psylocybin but it would also dilute the concentration in your stomach so it's hard to say.. I usualy drink alot of orange juice when I'm sketching the day after I trip and find it makes me feel alot better..

You can still eat chocolates! Go to whole foods, they have every thing you miss, available vegan. The vegan chocolate chip cookies are perfect, they taste exactly the same as regular cookies.

Might not get you higher, but citrus is so much fun when your tripping. Makes me shiver just thinking about it.
