Doubt or tension
Are you unsure whether microdosing truffles is something for you?
Doubting is normal. You are about to try something new. Something that affects your body and your mind. That sense of caution is not a limitation , it’s actually a good sign. People who start carefully tend to get more out of it. Not because they already know everything, but because they take the time to feel what it does for them. There is no need to rush this. Discover it at your own pace.
What people experience
What you may notice when you’re just starting
The first time microdosing feels different for everyone. Some people notice something subtle right away, others hardly feel anything at all - and both are completely normal. See it as getting acquainted, not something that needs to work immediately. The real value of microdosing often isn’t in the first day, but in the build-up over time.

How people often begin
There are two ways to start, depending on what feels right for you. Most people choose the Beginners Protocol: one day a microdose, followed by two days of rest. You repeat this for two months. It gives structure without feeling heavy, allowing you to gradually discover what it does for you. Would you rather just see how it feels first, without committing to anything? Then start with a single pack. No schedule, just trying it once. Many people find that a more comfortable first step
A single pack is an accessible way to get familiar with microdosing, without immediately committing to a full protocol.
You take one microdose at a moment that feels right for you and simply observe what it does. No fixed schedule, no obligation, just experiencing how your body and mind respond.
For many people, this is a comfortable first step. It gives you the space to explore, without pressure, whether microdosing is right for you before possibly moving on to a more structured approach like the Beginners Protocol.
See it as a first impression, not the full picture. The effects of microdosing often build more noticeably over time when followed consistently.
The Beginners Protocol – or the Fadiman Protocol – is a good start for people who are microdosing for the first time. This protocol is based on a 3-day cycle for the next two months.
As you can see in the schedule below: On the first day, you microdose, followed by two days without microdosing; on the third day, you microdose again. Follow this routine for two months.
Try this microdosing protocol to determine if it is right for you and experience what microdosing can do for you. After two months, take a break for 2 to 4 weeks to let your system reset.
Start your way
You don’t have to be sure
You don’t need to be 100% certain to begin. Most people start with a bit of doubt. Not because they already know everything, but because they’re curious about what it might do for them.
You can keep it small. One moment. One experience. Just see how it feels.
From there, you take it as it comes.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Yes. You can stop at any time. You’re not committed to anything.
Using truffles does not lead to physical dependence. You can stop whenever you want without withdrawal symptoms. What many people experience is actually the opposite of addiction: after completing a protocol, it often feels like enough and needs time to settle. This makes it less suited for continuous use and more for conscious, occasional use.
No. Microdosing with truffles is not addictive.
Truffles (psilocybin) are not addictive because they work differently from substances like alcohol, nicotine, or drugs that activate the brain’s reward system. Instead of creating a strong dopamine spike – which drives the feeling of “I want this again” – truffles mainly affect serotonin, which is related to mood and perception. As a result, there is no strong urge to keep taking them. In addition, your body quickly builds tolerance, meaning the effect actually decreases with frequent use.

Fungki Microdosing is a tool, not a miracle solution. Take the time to discover how microdosing works for you. Keep track of your progress in a journal or an app to better understand your experience. Do not ignore possible side effects such as fatigue or nausea. If you do feel nauseous, a cup of ginger tea may help. If you notice that you’re no longer experiencing the desired effects, you may have built up tolerance. Take a short break and continue when you feel ready again. Changes in awareness and sensitivity can sometimes feel overwhelming. Some people may experience irritability, while others feel more relaxed – both are normal. At Fungki, we recommend taking a break from microdosing after 8–10 weeks to allow your system to reset. You can continue when you feel ready.

Always consult your doctor or another qualified healthcare provider if you have questions about a medical condition.
