WHOOP is diving headfirst into the world of psychedelics, connecting the dots between mind-altering substances and your body’s recovery.
WHOOP’s Psychedelic Playbook
WHOOP, the popular wearable tech company, is pushing the boundaries of health tracking by introducing a groundbreaking feature: psychedelics tracking.
Journal on a New Level
WHOOP’s customizable Journal feature already allows users to log over 100 behaviors and see how they impact their biometrics. Now, they’re adding a new dimension by incorporating the tracking of ketamine, LSD, and psilocybin.
From Research to Reality
This move has been years in the making. WHOOP partnered with the SEAL Future Foundation in 2020 to study the effects of psychedelics on veterans with PTSD. They also collaborated with Field Trip Health, a psychedelic therapy provider.
sychedelic substances, such as ketamine, LSD, and psilocybin, are used by a diverse range of people and for various purposes. It’s crucial to emphasize that using these substances, especially without medical supervision, can be dangerous.
Here are some of the groups who use these substances:
- Patients in psychedelic therapy: In recent years, there has been a surge in research and use of psychedelics in psychiatric treatments for conditions like depression, anxiety, and PTSD. These treatments are always conducted under strict medical supervision.
- Individuals seeking spiritual or personal experiences: Some people use these substances to explore their consciousness, gain new insights, or experience spiritual sensations.
- Recreational users: Similar to alcohol and other drugs, psychedelics are sometimes used for enjoyment or at parties.
