Mang (Banj) is an ancient entheogenic elixir that is referred to in two accounts of Zoroastrian texts. In Denkard, a combination of haoma and Mang is given by the divine messenger, Nēryōsang to King Vishtāsp, who is remembered as the Kayanian king who became Zarathustra’s royal patron and helped establish the first Zoroastrian community. Known as Vishtaspian Mang, Mang at that time was the name of Black Henbane plant, a deliriant. In the Arda Vīrāz Nāmag (Arda Viraz Namah, “Book of Arda Viraf”), a medieval Zoroastrian visionary tale in which the righteous Viraz, after drinking the Vishtaspian Mang made by the magi at the fire temple of Adur Franbag, journeys through heaven and hell to reaffirm the truth of Zarathustra’s religion [8].
We created this ancestral Lucid Dream Supplement with the inspiration of Mang, to help you derive lucid insights from your nightly REM sleep cycle. This formulation does not include Black Henbane, but Espand, which was the primary compound of the ancient Haoma formulation.
Mang lucid dream supplement ancestral ingredients are:
The key ingredients in Mang Lucid Dream Supplement are Espand (aka Syrian Rue, Harmel, or Peganum harmala). Espand is an abundant source of beta-carbolines [9], a class of naturally occurring neuromodulatory compounds with neuroprotective properties [10]. Beta-carbolines are found naturally in a handful of plants, including Espand (P. harmala) and Banisteriopsis caapi, the ancestral Amazonian vine used in traditional ceremonial brews [11]. Thanks to modern neuroscience, we now understand the biology behind what our ancestors discovered thousands of years ago.
Mang also contains Qian Ceng Ta (Huperzia serrata), an ancestral plant used for over 2,000 years in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that is known as the Tower of 1000 Steps for its physical similarity to a Buddhist pagoda and mind-elevating effects. Qian Ceng Ta — also referred to in Chinese as “more valuable than gold” — is the botanical source of huperzine A, a natural cholinesterase inhibitor that helps sustain acetylcholine, the neurotransmitter most associated with vivid REM dreaming and memory.
Beta-carbolines such as harmine [12] are unique neuromodulators that have been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory activity in neurons [13] and to support neurogenesis by increasing levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) [14] and human neural progenitor cells (hNPC) [15].
Beta-carbolines also interact with the sleep cycle via the pineal gland, the part of the brain that regulates the body’s circadian rhythm. The pineal gland synthesizes melatonin from serotonin (the “happiness hormone”) [16], and is also believed to be a site of endogenous neuromodulator synthesis via alternate pathways [17].
Vivid, story-like dreams occur mainly in the REM stage of sleep, when the brain shifts into a distinctive neurochemistry: high cholinergic (acetylcholine) tone alongside low noradrenaline and serotonin. Raising acetylcholine during REM is the best-evidenced way to intensify dreaming and lucidity — the mechanism shared by the classic dream-enhancers surveyed in the research [21]. Lucidity itself is a measurable, hybrid brain state: ordinary REM plus a burst of frontal ~40 Hz (gamma) activity — the signature of self-aware, “waking” cognition switching back on inside the dream [20].
Mang is built to work with both halves of this biology:
At a precise low dose, the two are formulated to support high-frequency brain activity during REM — the window where lucidity and dream recall arise.

How strong is the cholinergic lever? In a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 121 experienced dreamers, a single pre-dawn dose of a cholinesterase inhibitor raised the share of people who had a lucid dream from 14% on placebo to 27% and then 42% as the dose increased — and it also increased dream recall, vividness and complexity [22]. Qian Ceng Ta’s huperzine A belongs to this same cholinesterase-inhibiting class.

Sustaining acetylcholine raised lucid-dream frequency in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (n=121; LaBerge et al., 2018). Mang’s Qian Ceng Ta supplies huperzine A — the same cholinesterase-inhibitor class.
