Field Trip expects its Toronto location will be used as a trial site for the Anorexia Nervosa arm of MAPS’ Eating Disorder Study, which has been approved by Health Canada.
During the study, Field Trip would host MAPS-trained therapists who would provide MDMA-assisted therapy.
Although I can see MDMA being helpful for eating disorders, something tells me that a classical psychedelic like psilocybin mushrooms, ayahuasca, or LSD would be more effective for this particular condition. Still encouraging to see more research being conducted though. Hopefully through studies like this we will eventually figure out which psychedelics are best for which applications.
