Generally, people say things like 'gives you lucids' when really, if anything, a lucid aid might simply give you more vivid dreams. That's probably what happened. |

ok, so i heard that eating cheese is good to induce a LD. but when i ate it, i found i had very realistic and vivd dreams.no lucids. personally i think if my dreams a more real. that its harder to LD because its harder to recognise the dream. has anyone else tried cheese? |

Yeah, actually my brother was the one whole told me about this. There's a lot of evidence to suggest that cheese increases the vividness of dreams and makes them easier to remember the next day. Also it seems that it is unlikely to experience nightmares after eating cheese before you go to sleep. |

Thanks for the replies ppl.. |

I disagree with you guys. I eat cheese on a daily basis everything from feta to mozzarela and my dream recall is horrible. By that, I mean I'll be lucky if I remember a couple of dreams a month, yes, its that bad. Of course, it could be the type of cheese I am eating |

Well BigFan, I think the whole cheese thing means RIGHT before you go to bed. I tried it once, long before I heard of LD'ing and found this forum, and it actually did produce a dream I could remember, even wtihout autosuggestion. (I rarely remember my dreams. Even lately, with autosuggestion I can't. I won't hijack this thread though.) |

Lol, I bought a 12-pack of string cheese(taking one a night) just to try this out...didn't work for me =/ |
|
i think it has to be real cheese.. not stuff like string cheese lol. and yeah ive heard you eat it just before you go to bed |

I remember as a kid my mum telling me not to eat cheese before going to bed as it would make me dream - or worse give me nightmares!!! I used to enjoy my dream world/s (often in them during waking hours these days) as a kid, and so would eat cheese (yes real cheese not slices or mulch - English Cheddar seems to do it for me, presently Canadian Extra Mature - delicious also!!!) to get me to that dreaming state. I think that because I used to view my LDs as a kid like a kind of mind project, I was fully aware of being in a dream about 99% of the time. Sometimes nowadays I find that laying on my back when dozing off in bed can produce almost instant nightmare type dreams...!?! |

Oh my God. I'm presented with yet another lucid aid, and I happen to hate cheese. Gah! |
