Me and my friend tried the Mango trick. Ate mangoes before smoking a nice kief and shake bowl, we both noticed differences than just a regular high. We notice it adds a body high and makes your normal high even higher. My vision became even more blurred than before, I forgot conversations at random moments more than usual. Same with the simplest words and descriptions.
My friend couldn't believe it, he had never heard of it being used. Definitely something to be passed down to people.
You want to eat an overripe mango 30-45 minutes before smoking. To tell a mango is overripe you should press on it, it should be softer than normal.
I won't believe this until a formal experiment is conducted. And it must be a controlled experiment. Or else it's not valid information.
Well, I'll believe it, not everything needs to be scientifically proved, that's just retarded.
I gotta try this some time.

it's not like you're drinking gasoline before smoking, mangos aren't going to kill you, just give it a try
Most likely placebo.
[QUOTE=^0mKTank;20391828]Most likely placebo.[/QUOTE]
Placebo effect for the win.
Although the citrus is probably what does it, as it aids in a trip on acid/shrooms. Your brain likes citrus.
Hey, if a placebo effect will make my high even better. Why not! :350:

this is exactly what i was going to say. thank god you were the last post otherwise i would have had to waste my time making a post.

shit
I thought citric acid was good for digesting food, so it helps you break down shrooms faster. Can't be the same thng with weed
[QUOTE=Otsegolation;20393789]I thought citric acid was good for digesting food, so it helps you break down shrooms faster. Can't be the same thng with weed[/QUOTE]It's a chemical called Myrcene. Here is an explanation.

I wasn't saying it was bad at all, I just doubt that it actually caused it. If it works for you, do it.
God, how many times do we need to go over this before you guys get it? It's not placebo. It's not bullshit.
It works by allowing the psychoactive compounds in marijuana to cross the blood-brain barrier faster.
It's the Vitamin C.
It works, no bullshit.
Try getting one of those odwalla "C-monster" drinks, which are like 400% of your daily vitamin c, and smoke a lot of weed.
Isn't Vitamin C just to make your blood more acidic, so drugs can move around system more freely or something?
I dunno I'm not a scientist, I just know it works

It's not the Vitamin C. Do you not know how to fucking read?
I don't see how the two are incompatible.
Why would Vitamin C help? I've heard people say that Vitamin C potentiates shrooms, but that's only because it speeds up digestion, and even then, there's no evidence to support it and most people consider it to be bullshit/just placebo.
But you see, at least that makes a wee bit of sense. Why would Vitamin C potentiate marijuana?
There are lots of things that naturally contain 5HTP and L-Tyrosine which potentiate some trips. Lots of things contain these naturally and I'm willing to believe there are other things that can help such as Mangos.
I don't know why it works. I don't have access to a biochemistry lab or the means to do a double-blind study to rule out the placebo effect.
All I know is it makes my sativa high more extreme, and sometimes gives me minor visuals. It really takes way more than your daily dose of vitamin c to do anything though, and it's a minor difference in the high.
As far as proven scientific evidence, I can't cite any.
Shrooms and Acid use Vitamin C to make you trip harder.
It is not the same as a mango and pot. That reason is Myrcene.
Yes, it is true that this works. The mangos contain a certain chemical (I cannot recall the name) that is also present in high quality cannabis. A similar effect can be found from drinking either lemon grass tea or eating dark chocolate (it must be rich, probably want at least 70% cocoa).
This is interesting. I'll definitely try this out.

Really? You can't remember the name? That's funny, because it's been posted at least 5 times in the thread. Guess which rating you're getting today :smug:

Ratings are apparently broke'd
fuck
Mangos are delicious so just another reason to eat them.

ratings work. they have to get 2+ of a rating for them to be visible now. Prevents bandwagon effect.

Oh, I must have missed that.
Makes sense, though.

Fuck you Anubis. Now I'm craving a fucking mango so bad.
