The Ayahuasca Pre-Diet: How to Prepare for an Ayahuasca Ceremony, According to Shamans
Generally, most of the people will mention: - A healthy diet before the ceremony consists of lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains (like rice, quinoa, and oats), and legumes (like beans, lentils, and peas). While cooking, be sparing with oil (olive or coconut are preferred), without salt, spices and sugar.
- Avoid the consumption of alcohol, stimulants, opiates and other drugs in the weeks before ayahuasca (recommend at least 3-4 weeks prior). It is also very important to reduce expectations about the ses- sion (unrealistic expectations are frequent) while establishing a definite intention (what you would like to get out of the session).
- The dieta is extremely strict and includes no salt, no oils, no spices, no sugar and no sexual activity. Most often, the dieta consists of rice, potato, and occasionally, preferably organic based- boiled chicken or fish, plantain or egg.
- Avoid all dairy products as well as avocado, chocolate, and refined sugar. Honey is okay but try to limit your intake and use natural, organic honey.
- Avoid all processed foods minimize acidic fruits, red meat, pork, and dark beverages for at least 7 days. Instead, think whole foods. Super foods such as cacao, almonds, legumes, beets, berries, etc.do wonders for our mental, emotional, and physical bodies.
The strict version: if you REALLY want to eat the strictest of the strict ayahuasca dieta preparation, you can only eat:
green bananas
yucca
boiled plantains with no oil
fish
rice
water
Nothing else!
