Question about dosing

[boti420]

I am currently workingon a book about psychedelic substances. At first i was intending this boo kto be gear towrds beginners and novices, but i've realized that my writing style isn;t really suited for that and is better aimed at more educated readers. So i decided to rework my book towards the educated reader. I am in the early stages of my writing and my main focus and goal to to make this an authentic and scietifically sound piece of knowledge. This is as tedious as it is ultimately rewarding. I spend on average three hours of research for every page that is type. This is due to me citing and backing up everything i write with a scietific source. It is my belif that by writing an informative book on psychedelic subtsances that is scietifically sound will do much to further this area of research and knowledge

Anyways thats for my quick intro, let me get to the major problem with which i need your assisstance to solving. I will be covering 20 or so of the more common psychedelic substances including many of the research chemcals discussed on these forums. Being an all inclusive book i will be writing about dosage suggestions for each of the substances. This is where my problem arises. First of what is the dose for these substances? It is very different for everyone so it would be wrong for me to just write the doses SWIM finds to be suficient. I would like to list the doses required to reach Levels I, II, III of the shulgin scale for each of the sybstances. The second problem arsises form that fact that i want my doasage suggestions to be based on real data. SO i can't just go and copy the dosages suggestions from a site like erowid since that has no scientific data behind it. It is of upmost importance that this book be as scientificall correct as possible as i will be trying to get it distributed by legitimate and prestigious organizations in the field of psychedelic reserach such as MAPS.org and the only aspect of my book i'm having difficulty in meeting this criteria is the dosages suggestions.

Since the range of doses to reach any given level on aany substance is quite vaired to to individual body chemcistry this has presented me with the biggest headache in figuring out. I need the community's help on this one. I was thinking of maybe designing a formal questionaire that can be submitted to the various online psychedelic ciommunities and possible gather data on dosing there. What do you all think of that idea? IS it really possible or me to create such a research project that will allow me to gather the necessary dosing info so that the dosages suggestions i put in the book have some real world data to back it up? ANyone on here care to help me out with how i should go about doing this? I tried asking very informally dosage questions on other forums and have received very litle useful feedback. I basically get the same old response that the diose is different for everyone. Well i know that, so how do i go about gatheriong data on dosing for the various substances that has at least some scietifical significance behind it? Thanks.
