Peanut Butter Before Bed, Dream Lucidly Like Never Before

I'm all out of peanut butter, nooooooooooooooo!

Ok I'm not saying it was the peanut butte but I had a lucid dream yesterday. I ate three fingers full of peanut butter, the crunchy one. Maybe it was the peanut butter or maybe it was my conscious. I don't know but Im going to eat some today again. If I get them three times in a row then peanut butter does enhance the chances of getting lucid dreams.

I love peanut butter toast. I will try it tonight and report back tomorrow.

I usually don't remember my dreams, and I don't lucid dream very often, but I will try it.

peanuts and especcially peanut butter are the most disgusting foods in the world. youre probably inducing nightmares.
i wont be taking part in this.

I didn't eat any peanut related products last night and this morning when I awoke I couldn't remember a single dream just as the previous morning in which I ate a lot of peanut butter/peanuts before bed that night. I ate a bowl of "Honey Bunches of Oats with Peaches" with whole milk and fell back asleep and had a very vivid, intense dream which had some sort of alien invasion occurring. I'd place it up there with some of the most vivid dreams I've ever had. Is there possibly any connection between this cereal and having such a dream? What could be the possible cause if so? Maybe someone should try eating a bowl of this cereal before bed and let us know if anything occurs? I'll possibly have a bowl tonight and see if this same thing happens and check back tomorrow.

I had a bit of PB last night but I think the rum interefred. Ill try again tonight.

This only with peanuts or do other nuts work ?

Like can I get one of those mixed nut containers and use that or does it strictly have to be peanuts ?

I like peanuts ...just not as much as cashews and almonds and some others..

I'll try it tonight to see if it works.

thanks for the advice. I'll post back tomorrow and let you know if it worked for me as well.

Well I did not meet with good results. The peanut butter so close to bedtime caused my stomach to ache. So, I didn't get to sleep until well after my bedtime. (Over 5 hours late) I did dream, but they were the average sort of dreams I tend to have, and I didn't retain any memory except vague inklings of what was going on in my dream.

I'll retry for one more night. Perhaps, my stomach will not ache so severely tonight, that I can get to sleep within a half hour or so after eating it.

Serraphina, please don't try this if it causes you discomfort. Many are claiming balogna on this thread.

There is something I do nearly every single night that gives me spectacular dreams and makes me sweat like crazy... I tried the peanut butter in conjunction with my tried and true method and dreamed of nothing (couldn't remember anyway) at all for three straight nights...

Tried franks and beans last night and had a horrific dream that I was running around trying to find an open stall in a Hooters...

I would not suggest peanut butter... I would highly recommend against franks and beans...

Thank you for your concern. It is very kind. I love peanut butter, so I'm not adverse to trying once more. Peanut butter generally doesn't give me a stomach ache. I eat it a lot to! Therefore, I've reason to believe that the stomach didn't have anything to do with the peanut butter.

But rest assured, if I get a stomach ache again at night, I'm going back to my never eating after 6 p.m. rule!

This is very interesting. After reading your post the other day and eating PB&J sandwiches before bed the last 2 nights I have noticed more lucid dreaming than before. Whether that is because of the peanut butter or the conscious expectation (or whatever it's called) I don't know but it's interesting to say the least. I'm going to keep trying it to see if there's anything to it or not. Star for now, flag is pending.

Thanks for the info OP am a big peanut lover but never really have them before bed so i shall try

Just wondering I'll probably either have like 50 or 100g is that too much / too little or does it matter..?

Also how close to bed should I eat them?

Gonna try this later

Tried it anyway and I had a really strange dream, it was really vivid and basically showed me all my life problems in one dream.. never had anything like that before. Was weird but didn't become lucid.

Looks like I'm heading to Wal-Mart


P.S peanut butter goes well with _________?

Hi, just curious how can you have a "scary" lucid dream? I just change mine.

Waking up and then going back to bed is a well know technique to induce lucid dreams. I doubt it has anything to do with the cereal.

I don't know about peanut butter, but I take a blood pressure med which gives me extremely lucid dreams. In fact, on the fact sheet which the pharmacy gives me with refills, one of the listed side effects is 'can cause lucid dreams'. Me likey.

I wonder if you can use nutella instead, it's hazelnut, but you can put a tablespoon into a boiling hot mug of milk and make a hazelnut chock-fatty layered oozing with grease delicious drink!

Ohhh Yum!

I tried it the last 2 nights- which is no problem for me since I luv PB!
1st night, pretty intense dream about a portal that was through some kind of rift. It looked like an old lava road or something. The portal would open at regular intervals, but was somewhat unpredictable as far as where you would end up, but people were still using it regularly for trade- interesting!
2nd night- nada.
Will try again tonight.
