Amanita Muscaria (fly agaric) Mushroom

Imagine you’re deep in the forest, surrounded by towering trees and a soft mist that blankets everything in a mystical glow. You feel a buzzing sensation in your body, and your mind begins to race with anticipation. Suddenly, you see a small red-cap mushroom peeking out from beneath a bush. You recognize it as Amanita muscaria – the magical mushroom of ancient shamanic traditions.

As you pick up the mushroom, you feel a sense of reverence and awe. You take a bite and suddenly everything around you starts to shift and transform. The trees begin to dance and sway, the mist turns into a kaleidoscope of colors and shapes, and you feel a sense of oneness with the world around you.

The experience intensifies as you wander deeper into the forest. You encounter creatures that seem to be from another world – mystical beings that guide you through the psychedelic landscape. You feel your mind expanding and your heart opening as you journey deeper into the unknown.
Finally, after what seems like an eternity, the effects begin to wear off, and you find yourself back in the real world. But you feel changed. You have a new appreciation for the beauty of the world, a sense of connection to all living things, and a profound understanding of your place in the universe.

WHAT IS AMANITA MUSCARIA?
Amanita Muscaria Mushroom -

Amanita muscaria (also referred to as fly agaric) are mushrooms that grow throughout the northern part of the planet natively, but can also be found in some regions in the Southern Hemisphere. These mushrooms have a highly recognizable appearance with their iconic red or yellowish caps that have raised white speckles. However, they have been highly regarded throughout history for their psychedelic and mildly hallucinogenic properties.

HOW DO AMANITA MUSHROOMS WORK?
Amanita mushrooms affect the GABA neurotransmitters in the brain. The mushrooms contain ibotenic acid and muscimol, which perform similar actions in the central nervous system as GABA receptors when introduced from an outside source. This directly leads to telltale effects, such as changes in perception (hallucinations) and sedation.

ARE AMANITA MUSHROOMS PSYCHEDELIC OR HALLUCINOGENIC?
Are Amanita Mushrooms Psychedelic
The terms psychedelic and hallucinogenic are often used interchangeably in terms of drugs, and, some would say amanita mushrooms are no-doubt psychedelic. After all, they wouldn’t get lumped in with other magic mushrooms without reason.
The more general definition of a psychedelic is: “a class of psychoactive substances that produce changes in perception, mood, and cognitive processes.”

By this definition, amanita muscaria mushrooms are undeniably psychedelic. After all, the mushrooms are said to cause changes in visual, spatial, time, and auditory perception are possible, and the mushrooms can put you into a more tranquil frame of mind. However, by formal definitions in medical literature, amanita mushrooms are not always considered psychedelic because of their mechanism of action.
As noted above, the active ingredients found in amanitas (muscimol and ibotenic acid) interact with GABA receptors instead of either dopamine or serotonin neurotransmitters. According to some medical definitions, psychedelics have more to do with dopamine and serotonin, and their effects are related to how the substance interacts with or enhances these receptors. Therefore, amanita muscaria mushrooms would not be classified as psychedelic even though they can produce hallucinogenic effects.

WILL AMANITA MUSCARIA GET YOU HIGH?

Will Amanita Mushrooms Get You High
Yes; however, this could also depend on what you define as “high.” The better descriptor may be tranquil with a slightly altered state of perception.
The anticipated amanita muscaria effects are changes in perception and relaxation, but some sense of euphoria is possible. The mushrooms deliver a combination of depressant, sedative, and potentially deliriant effects.
The overall experience depends greatly on how much amanita muscaria you ingest. For example, if you take only small amounts of amanita mushrooms, you may simply feel more relaxed with a tendency to slip into vivid daydreams or have incredible dream experiences when you fall asleep. It is not uncommon for people to fall asleep while using amanita mushrooms and wake up with profound revelations or questions stemming from what they dreamed about while under the influence of the amanita mushrooms.
By contrast, taking large amounts of amanita muscaria is bound to lead to a more delirious experience, more likely to involve hallucinations and side effects.

HOW LONG DOES THE HIGH FROM AMANITA MUSCARIA LAST?
How Long Does an Amanita Mushroom High Last
Amanita mushroom effects usually start to appear at about the 30-minute mark, but it can take up to 90 minutes for some people to experience the full onset of effects. And, the actual onset may vary depending on how much you ingest. These effects can linger for anywhere from 4 to 6 hours. While this can sound like a broad spectrum in terms of timelines and duration, the simple fact is, amanita muscaria effects are different for each individual.

HOW MANY AMANITA MUSHROOMS SHOULD I TAKE?
Recommendations vary from source to source when it comes to consuming the actual mushroom caps. For example, Psychedelic Spotlight says that one small mushroom cap should do the trick. Yet, other sources claim you should eat one small mushroom cap for a low dose and up to three medium mushroom caps for an average dose. In reality, neither is a good idea.
Amanita mushrooms can be dangerous if not properly prepared. And, the mushrooms have hallucinogenic properties—that automatically means the active ingredients can be overwhelming in large doses. Therefore, it can be better to stick with a product made with amanita mushroom extracts like the newest psychedelic products from Gummies-Chocolates. This delivers amanita muscaria effects without eating the actual mushrooms and taking a chance on consuming too much or consuming a mushroom that has not been properly prepared.
The muscimol in amanita mushrooms is nowhere near as potent as psilocybin. Therefore, the consensus is 10 to 15mg of muscimol is a good starting point. Keep in mind, this dosage recommendation is used for pure muscimol found in the mushrooms themselves. Extracts used to make something like amanita mushroom gummies are a bit different. For example, our amanita gummies contain 350mg of amanita extract per gummy and Our chocolate bars contain 420mg of amanita per piece, which is essentially considered a microdose.

TIPS FOR TAKING AMANITA MUSHROOMS FOR THE FIRST TIME
Tips for Taking Amanita Mushrooms for the First Time

1. FIRST AND FOREMOST
Make sure mushrooms come from a legitimate source. Or, even better, go with the far safer option of amanita mushroom products like gummies. These gummies make it easier to gauge your dose, and you know the extracts used were properly prepared. For example, our gummies come In a ten-gummy jar. Each gummy contains 350mg of amanita mushroom extract, and the gummies are tested by an unaffiliated, third-party lab for potency and purity.

2. GET COMFORTABLE
Make no mistake, gummies or actual amanita muscaria, the effects can alter your perception and function for several hours. Make sure you’re in a safe place and plan to stay there for several hours after consumption

3. USE RESPONSIBLY
Amanita mushrooms and amanita mushroom products are legal, but they are psychedelic by nature. Fungi notoriously deliver different intensity levels and experiences. So, start with the lowest possible dose or amount, evaluate and assess, wait, and then adjust your dose only slightly the next time.
