The Science Behind Trippy Flip: How THC and Psilocybin Work Together
At Trippy Flip, we combine cutting-edge neuroscience with artisanal chocolate craftsmanship to create balanced psychedelic experiences. Understanding the pharmacological synergy between THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and psilocybin reveals why our blended formulations offer distinct advantages.
Neurochemical Interactions
1. Receptor Cross-Modulation
THC primarily binds to:
• CB1 receptors (endocannabinoid system)
• CB2 receptors (immune modulation)
Psilocybin (as psilocin) primarily binds to:
• 5-HT2A serotonin receptors
• 5-HT1A serotonin receptors
The synergy occurs through:
→ Increased serotonin production (psilocybin effect)
→ Enhanced CB1 receptor sensitivity (THC effect)
→ Dopamine/norepinephrine modulation (both compounds)
2. The Entourage Effect
Our blended chocolate bars leverage:
Pharmacokinetic Benefits
• THC increases blood-brain barrier permeability
• Psilocybin metabolites prolong effect duration
Pharmacodynamic Benefits
• Reduced anxiety (CBD modulation in some blends)
• Smoother onset (chocolate fat absorption)
Experience Enhancement Mechanisms
A. Sensory Perception
| Compound | Effect | Combined Result |
|---|---|---|
| THC | Tactile enhancement | Amplified synesthesia |
| Psilocybin | Visual patterning | Richer hallucinations |
B. Cognitive Effects
THC Dominant Blends (70/30 ratio):
• Creative thinking
• Time dilation
• Emotional warmth
Psilocybin Dominant Blends (30/70 ratio):
• Ego softening
• Metaphysical insights
• Memory revisitation
Clinical Considerations
Therapeutic Potential
Emerging research suggests combinations may help:
• Treatment-resistant depression
• PTSD symptom reduction
• Neuropathic pain management
Important notes:
- Requires precise dosing (our chocolates provide 5mg/0.1g increments)
- Set/setting remains crucial
- Not recommended with SSRI medications
