LSD Accelerates Brain Rhythms and Boosts Neural Complexity, Study Shows
A Montreal study found that LSD accelerates brain rhythms and increases the complexity of neural activity, prompting a reevaluation of psychedelic effects on the brain.

Researchers in Montreal reported that LSD speeds up brain rhythms and makes neural activity more complex and fractal in nature. The study adds to earlier work showing psychedelics alter neural patterns, but it provides new evidence of heightened rhythm speed and complexity under LSD.
These findings suggest a need to reassess how psychedelic substances affect the brain.
