      Foods That May Help Lucidity

      Foods That May Help Lucidity
      After only having a few experiences with LD’s and the fact that they were short in length, I decided to try different foods to see if that would help. After thinking back to my first LD I tried to think of what I did any differently then usual activities or food intake. It seems to me that I have had more bananas around that time and am now experimenting with the timing of when to eat them. Also I noticed that if I am active physically more than usual for a given day that my dream recall seems to improve for the next couple of days. If anyone has any experiences with any of these natural methods please do share it with us. I will update my trials with the foods as I discover anything that I feel is effective.

      Foods

      Sure I just got back from the Health Food store and am trying all kinds of new stuff that I read about. Lets see.. WHEY protein mix for the amino acids, St John's Wort tea, Zinc, multiple B Vitamins, Kava (yoga) tea just to name a few. I will let you know if I have any success!

      all those things sounds expensive, :/ well hope you won't try everything same night
      iv'e thought that if you eat like bananas because you've heard that your recall improves, then your mind rememberes more just because you think you will,
      like a placebo (i think)

      anyway Good Luck

      placebo

      You may be right about the placebo effect but I'm not going to give up. Yea it can be expensive at the Health Food stores but I've gambled a lot more at casinos until I learned my lesson. Besides an individual who is doing this kind of research can consider other nutrients that he or she may lack and benefit from. Not funny but if you think about it a percentage of people may benefit from a given food source that I think is less of a gamble then chancing a placebo.
      P.S. I think my bananas are ready tonight. (Treated w/Secrete formula)

      Hey, even if it is a placebo... if it still works, it's good, right?

      Whether banana's are based on any tangible evidence or not, I am going to eat a few before I go to bed and see what happens.

      yum yum Banana

      Well I'm still not sure because I’m working on some other foods. But I'll tell you what my formula is even though I'm not sure yet because of so many other things to try. Well here it is, Now I can just imagine half the world of dreamers doing this tonight lol I get the bananas when still a little green then carefully cut the stem end of the bunch with a razor or whatever to expose the stems in water treated with a couple of zinc tablets. You know, give your banana a zinc supplement to grow on..?

      A receipe for a lucid night
      well I have eaten 2 bananas for an hour ago hope they will help my recall for tonight, so could zinc also help? I am not so old yet and I don't think my mother would like me to eat all kinds of pills even if they were Vitamin suppliments, so a bananas is fine for me

      bananas rock,
      They not only help you with LD's and memory, but they have other benefits too. I had trouble with constipation and my friend told me that a banana a day helps to clean out your colon. So I tried it every day for 3 weeks. After the third week, I was so embarrassed, because then my friend told me that I was supposed to be EATING them!!! Get it?!?!

      Seriously I stick to a 100mg tablet of B6 shortly before I go to bed, and it could be a placebo affect, but I feel like I get at the very least a more vivid dream when I do.
