Shocking news on the news today! ADHD medication quadrupled!
In the Netherlands, the use of ADHD medication has quadrupled since 2006. Whereas around 78,000 people were taking this medication in 2006, there are now almost 300,000. Women and adults over 25 in particular are increasingly reaching for the pill. But why exactly? And is it really the only or the best way to rest, concentration and balance?
At MicrodosingXP, we believe in an alternative. A kinder, more natural path, attuned to the rhythms of your body and mind.
Pill culture is growing, but is our health growing with it?
More people are being diagnosed with ADHD and so more pills are being prescribed. This seems logical, but it also raises questions. What if we confuse symptoms with signs? What if restlessness, fatigue or difficulty concentrating are actually a natural reaction to a world that is getting faster and fuller?
Psychiatrists have been warning for some time: the medical reflex to treat everything with medication can spill over. Especially when underlying causes such as stress, overstimulation or hormonal changes are not addressed.
Pharmaceuticals discover psilocybin in pill form
At the same time, a remarkable trend is visible: pharmaceutical companies are investing massively in psychedelics. Psilocybin, the active ingredient in magic mushrooms and truffles, is the star here. Companies like Ajna Biosciences, Compass Pathways, Filament Health, Cybin and Atai Life Sciences are all developing variants of psilocybin in pill or infusion form.
Their goal: a clinically controlled product that can treat depression, addiction and other mental symptoms. And while these innovations may be valuable, we also see that they change the original nature of psilocybin: from natural product to standardised pharmaceutical pill.
What science says: the whole is more powerful than the sum of its parts
British neuroscientist Prof Dr David Nutt states in his book Psychedelics: The Revolutionary Drugs That Could Change Your Life (2023) that psychedelics could replace much of current medication within five to 10 years. He points out that it is not just about psilocybin, but rather the overall mechanism of action where multiple substances combine to produce an effect that is deeper, more natural and longer-lasting.
This is exactly what happens in truffles: a full spectrum of substances such as psilocybin, psilocin, baeocystin and other natural tryptamines. Together, they create the so-called entourage effect, a subtle but powerful collaboration between all the elements of the truffle.
MicrodosingXP: the power of truffles as nature intended
At MicrodosingXP, we do not work with isolated substances or synthetic extracts. We use only fresh, legal magic truffles, a natural product that does its work on its own.
Our approach:
- Full spectrum: you get all the active substances from the truffle, not just psilocybin.
- Legal and safe: our truffles are permitted in the Netherlands and grown under controlled conditions.
- Kind to body and mind: no addictive effects, no side effects like many medications, and tailored to your daily rhythm.
- For women and sensitive brains: many of our users are women who want more balance in a demanding world.
A new path to peace and clarity
For those used to functioning on willpower, overdrive and to-do lists, microdosing feels like a gentle reset. Not to change your personality, but to reconnect with your natural state of being. Clear focus. Deep breathing. Peace in your head. Energy in your body.
This is not a quick fix. This is a process. But it is your process, tailored to your rhythms, your needs and your nature.
What can you do?
- Inform yourself: read more about microdosing, truffles and the entourage effect.
- Feel what's right: Do you recognise yourself in this story? Then this might be your next step.
- Start with guidance: through MicrodosingXP, you will not only get truffles, but also clear explanations, support and inspiration.
In conclusion
Pharmaceuticals try to reproduce it, but nature already knew it. You don't need to add anything, just awaken to what is already there. Magic truffles are not a panacea, but they can give a loving nudge in the right direction.
Welcome to MicrodosingXP. Your natural alternative to pill culture.
