What Psilocin Does Inside Your Cells

You break down what is happening with the psilocin in the cells specifically. Being someone that studies aging, I said, all right, let's pull out every marker that we have related to aging and see what's happening. And to our surprise, every single marker was rescued to some extent with psilocybin treatment. For example, as, as cells age, you see an increase in cell cycle arrest markers. You see decreased DNA synthesis, cellular metabolism slowing down. One of the main things that stuck out to me in the context of disease. Oxidative stress is something that accumulates as we age. A lot of diseases you have are associated with high levels of oxidative stress. So we looked at oxidative stress levels and what we found is that not only is it decreasing oxidative stress production, but it's boosting antioxidant responses.
