With the cannabos, I think the biggest risk from the protocol is distorting the gut flora, because the gut transit lowering effects last several days and several of the substances affect stomach pH. The worst concern would be ending up with SIBO, though so far most of my issues were related to lower in the gut and appear due to caprylic acid (one brand was not quite as good either... might as well stick to the popular stuff).
Here is a "mini" version of this protocol for weekdays (1-2 days/week, 3 max):
Low-dose phenibut (< 1g) + topical DHEA+pregnenolone (oil) + calcium/magnesium
Phenibut as a VGCC inhibitor always appeared to be able to lower the same types of stress signals in my brain as do the cannabos (my best guess being somewhere along the lines of TRP/5-HT3, or overactive histamine neurons in certain areas; also possible it lacks neurotransmission that normally behaves like VGCC inhibition, or rather both).
This is nowhere near what I've been describing - and it's definitely not high-dose phenibut (high concern/targeted-empathy state at ~3-5g) - but it produces very natural days and helped sleep. This seems to give the socialization and stress lowering benefits of phenibut for less backlash, and helps deal with withdrawal from cannabos since I'm more sensitive to that than most people.
I think cannabos and phenibut can probably be exploited to temporarily improve calcium usage for healing, and everything requires magnesium, and magnesium goes better with calcium. Having options is nice. (histidine+beta-alanine works with a lot of things as well...)
