"Microdosing LSD Enhances Distinct Brain Signals"

A study found that even small doses of LSD, specifically 26 micrograms, increased brain complexity by about 12 percent without altering consciousness, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits for mental health and task performance. The research indicates that microdoses of LSD affect the brain similarly to higher doses, potentially explaining reports of increased creativity and social connection. However, clinical trials have not yet proven overall benefits of microdosing LSD, and further research is needed to assess whether the observed increase in brain complexity results in cognitive, behavioral, or therapeutic outcomes.
