What types of common food or drink help cause lucid dreams? Would they still work if I hate the, about 2 or 3 hours before falling asleep? (I can never fall asleep quickly)
Energy drinks all the way!!!! Every time I drink one before I fall asleep I get the best dreams ever. Also Orange Juice gives me fairly good dreams sometimes.
By yea , try to a drink a energy drink before you do a WBTB . But you cant be sensitive to caffeine though. :cheers::drink::wino:
:embarrassed:Whoops you said common foods or drinks.
Do supplements count as food?
5-htp (preferably) or melatonin right before bed,
...and then galantamine (4-8mg) and choline bitrate (400mg)with a tiny, tiny piece broken off of a yohimbe pill at about 4am...
The htp will put you to sleep and suppress your rem sleep. Then it will wear off at around 4 am.
The galantamine and choline bitrate will supress your deep sleep and give you alot of REM sleep, from which you'll already be on the rebound for.
, since you surpressed it earlier.
The yohimbe will slightly wake up your conscious brain to trigger a lucid. Don't take to much. You could also substitute the yohimbe for a cigarette which should work.
Do this about 2 times a week only...
I've read that peanut butter will help your dreams to be more vivid. Also apple juice. I don't think they help you become lucid though, just increase the vividness.
Not positive though, just what I've read.
Cheese.
I really don't think theres any food with a high enough concentration of anything that will make any difference whatsoever. The supplements above are actually high concentrations derived from foods and they really do work...for sure 100%!
chocolate,bananas,orange juice,garlic,turkey,and nutmeg are all supposed to increase vividness. beware the chocolate though if you eat strong chocolate ,such as dark, right before falling asleep it can cause nightmares.
Nightmares can be a good way to induce lucid dreams in their own right, because they provoke reality checks and they often wake you up, making it real easy to WILD. But I would definately have to recommend bananas, from personal experience.
yeah bananas definitely help b/c they have small amounts of melatonin in them. but i just prefer to actually take the melatonin supplement... or both:D
