This is a great idea! We should also research the effects of things other than food and supplements. |

Alot seems to have been posting on what helps aid Dream recall/lucidity but nothing really seems to have been posted on what hinders dreaming. I only decided to make this after a week of using Horlicks. In the Uk, Horlicks is a powder you mix with milk that helps you to sleep. My recall is normally pretty good but after a week of drinking Horlicks before bed, I couldnt remeber a dam thing. As soon as I stopped drinking, recall returns with a Lucid dream to boot (Rem Rebound?) |

There is a thread on what hinders dreaming, but it's probably less conclusive than the suppository we have for what aids dreams and lucid dreams. The reactions vary depending on person. |
|
uhm i have b6 melatonin and fish oil how would i go about taking these in the right order to enhance lucid drreaming ? |
|
Wandering, as much allure as a lucid dream suppository has, I believe you were looking for a word like "repository." I don't mean to be a grammar nazi, but it gave me a good chuckle. |

Well certainly drinking/eating anything with lots of sugar or caffeine isn't going to help. |
|
Actually, caffeine should help. Contrary to popular belief (lies spread by Inception) dreams occur when you are closest to being awake. Things that put you to sleep (sleeping pills) reduce dreams while things that keep you up (caffeine, sugar, etc.) enhance them. The caffeine should be taken immediately before sleep though as you want to fall asleep before it has time to kick in. |

Wooah, hold on there. |

There are endless substance questions. Some people like to have a nightcap of alcohol. Others would say that causes restless sleep. Some say that it is better for dreaming. I would also question the use of mariuana. What effect does this have. Positive or negative. Let me know your opinions. |

Marijuana (when spelled correctly) is a REM suppressant, which means it's generally bad for dreaming. Same with alcohol. |
