  Where he reports a null result. It's wasting your money, take a full dose or not at all.

    It's a sample size of one, even a well designed test is basically meaningless. Plus, from my research on the subject, a full dose can have positive effects for months after the experience. Taking a full dose around a week before the experiment may have tainted the data.

      It's a sample size of one, but considering the rigorous methodology used I think it counts for at least as much evidence as the anecdotes of people going "it totally boosts my creativity man" with no control group and subjective measurements of efficacy that are highly vulnerable to a placebo effect.
