In this episode, Nils sits down for the second time with Djai Baaten.
Djai is a trained neuropsychologist and clinical psychologist and has worked in mental health care for most of his time. He has a strong academic background in how psychedelics work in the brain. As a psychologist, Djai is trained to work with people that want to change certain behaviours in their lives, but encounter difficulties in doing so.
Djai also works as a microdose coach, where he coaches and assists new and experienced microdosers with their practice. For more information on his microdose coaching sessions, check: https://microdose-pro.com/coaching/ In addition to his work as a psychologist, Djai is actively involved in the academic community on psychedelics and has co-organized several events.
In this podcast, we dive into some interesting studies regarding microdosing, as a recent study performed by the Imperial College London suggested that the beneficial effects of microdosing could be explained by the placebo effect. The perfect opportunity to ask Djai to shed his light on the matter.
We discuss two main questions:
Is microdosing a placebo?
What is the relationship between microdosing and Valvular Heart Disease (VHD)?
