If you have Netflix, look for Michael Pollan How to Change Your Mind. Episode 1 is about LSD. I learned a lot I hadn't known.

> ... consider for a moment that your employer gives you a free drug, and gives you paid time in which to ingest it. Why would they do that? Because it makes you a better worker. It makes you work harder, more efficiently and with better focus... in 1650.. Before coffee arrived, everybody was buzzed or drunk all the time in Europe... because fermentation killed bacteria.. caffeine was a kind of handmaiden to the Industrial Revolution.

> Three of every five Americans are now overweight, and some researchers predict that today's children will be the first generation of Americans whose life expectancy will actually be shorter than that of their parents... we have been here before, sort of, though the last great American binge involved not food, but alcohol... farmers turned their corn into whiskey..

Food for thought. This is a really interesting book. Bought it after I have seen ‘How to Change your Mind’ on Netflix. Within two-three months I have an appointment with my psychiatrist to discuss my adhd meds… Want to talk about this! #michaelpollan #psychedelics #microdosing

Michael Pollan’s “Cooked” should be required reading.
Especially in a country where the “edible, food-like substances” industry has completely overtaken any healthy/nutritious gastronomical culture we might’ve otherwise had here.

It was so long ago since he published #TheOmnivoresDilema that I only have vague memories of him being a privileged smug consumer and brushing off the idea of going vegan. Is that it, or did he make some forgotten and nasty comments?

He cautions us to remember that in the 80s it was believed that #SSRIs were going to save the world, but few turned out to be only slightly better than #placebos.
