Here's some common questions - you can also download our FULL FAQ Document
What is Amanita Muscaria?
Amanita Muscaria, (AM) also known as the enchanting ‘Fly Agaric’ (as it was a natural insecticide), is the iconic red mushroom speckled with white on its cap. 🍄
In short, Amanita Muscaria is an ancient, revered mushroom that has been used for thousands of years by humans to heal, to overcome, to optimize and to evolve consciousness.
Is It Safe?
YES! It is safe because the Amanita Muscaria mushrooms have gone through decarboxylation.
Decarboxylation is the careful heating / drying process that converts ibotenic acid (an excitatory compound) into muscimol (a more stable and psychoactive compound) by removing a carboxyl group. This process dramatically reduces the mushroom's toxicity and enhances its desired effects.
