Eating Mangos Before Smoking for Better High?

Ok, so I was watching Getting Doug With High a few weeks ago and Doug said he ate some mangos before smoking on the show and it enhanced his high.

Has anyone else heard of this before?

yeah, it does work ime...with over ripe mangos preferably. I've tried it unintentionally a few times and got pretty blitzed and gave credit to the mangos after the fact.

A little old, but there's some more info on mangoes and how the myrcene that's present in over ripe mangoes can bridge the blood/brain pathways that in turn amplify the effects of blazin up.

my girls picking up some mangoes right now...hopefully they're nice and ripe and I can take some dabs and try to determine if it gives me a boost...my tolerance is pretty high so this is going to be interesting lol

I didn't know it was the myrcene content, that's hella interesting.

That reminds me, a friend from highschool farms hops nowadays and he's getting into supercritical c02 hop extracts. He was saying he has no use for the myrcene and Im trying to get him to pass the myrcene my way. I'm gonna glob the myrcene wax onto some oil and see if it causes an uptick in potency, I'm betting it will.

I read somewhere that someone was talking about added myrcene into glycerine tinctures that greatly enhanced the effects of the tincture...

I'm not necessarily pro-added terps in concentrates, but if you could add some myrcene to some bho without altering the smell/flavor that might be something worth examining a bit more in depth.

hopefully your buddy passes a little of his by-product your way, there is certainly some experimenting that could be done.

I like smoking out of apples occasionally, when it's just me and my girl or me solo...something about how you have to pucker up to hit an apple is something I just don't like the idea of passing to someone I wouldn't want to be kissing hahaha

I like to do this 1x time every month, it don't do your tolerance a lot of good, even a 'holiday' should be considered after, but does make the stone hard hitting

there are other foods which do the same but I forget what, just now

food comes b4 smoking. only 1 after lol. most people just dont look at the point where they lost the after marker. internet ruins that game:biggrin: goes back to the word vitimins vs the word prescription pills and my brain not being able to understand why vitamins are healthy and prescription pills aren't. taking both after you know what your taking is not the same as being told to take them blindly and feel something or your doing it wrong.

1sts and 1st in line are two different groups of people.

What the fuck? :laughing:

Also beer though guys, lots of hoppy beer will actually have myrcene and besides beer is delicious and makes you feel good.

lemon grass has high levels of myrcene fwiw I imagine juicing large quantities of lemon grass prior to chiefin up may achieve the desired result?

Not ever noticed any enhancing effect with respect to cannabis, but they sure do help with stomach and digestive problems. I have found the small yellow ones seem to have the most positive effect for me. Ataulfo I think they are.
