Psilocybin and psilocin are the main active compounds in “magic mushrooms”. order shrooms AustraliaPsilocybin is the prodrug for psilocin: psilocin can cross directly over the blood-brain barrier, while enzymes in the body dephosphorylate psilocybin, converting it into psilocin. Psilocybin is an indole alkaloid that is structurally very similar to serotonin. Psilocybin is considered one of the classic psychedelics because it is structurally related to the neurotransmitters serotonin or dopamine (which are 5-HT2A agonists). Other classic psychedelics include LSD and mescaline.

The psychedelic effects include heightened/altered sensory experiences of vision, sound, and physical sensations. Other effects include a distorted sense of time, increased empathy and connection to others and the natural world, ego dissolution, and mystical/spiritual experiences. Effects of psychedelics are dose and setting dependent; they can evoke a state of inward reflection that can be deeply personal and existential. Side effects may include disorientation, increased heart rate, anxiety, and paranoia, which create what some people call a “bad trip”. Some people have reported long-term effects from these negative experiences, such as flashbacks, while others return to baseline without further issues. order DMT vape juice Australia

THE VARIETIES OF MAGIC MUSHROOMS
“Magic mushrooms” can also be referred to as neurotropic fungi, a group of fungi that produce “psychoactive” effects. This group includes species containing psilocybin, species containing ibotenic acid, the ergot fungi, and species used in a ceremonial context without reliable chemical studies. The most well represented group is the psilocybin-containing group.buy crystal meth Australia

All psilocybin-containing mushrooms, bar one, can be described as agarics, which means that they are gilled mushrooms with a cap and stem. The main type of mushroom that we refer to as “magic” are the genus Psilocybe—in 2005 Guzman, author of “The Genus Psilocybe”, estimated 227 species of Psilocybe, with 144 known to be hallucinogenic. In general, Psilocybe have hygrophanous caps (with caps changing color as they dry out), often have fibrous stems, and are considered “little brown mushrooms”. They have very distinctive blue bruising where the flesh of the mushroom is damaged, be it the stem, cap, gills, or mycelium. The psilocybin-containing mushroom that is not an agaric is actually a lichen from Ecuador—Dictyonema huaorani. Buy vape juice flavors Australia

The genus Psilocybe has changed significantly over time, and, for a while, Psilocybe was synonymous with the genus Deconica, which means the two were considered the same genus. Over time, these species have slowly been distinguished: many of the non-bruising species were referred to as Psilocybe, while the others were denominated Deconica or were moved into other genera. In 2009, after a reassessment of both Deconica and Psilocybe, Psilocybe was nearly renamed. However, due to legal implications, the group of blue bruising species retained their name Psilocybe.

While “magic mushrooms” or “shrooms” are typically from the genus Psilocybe, these are not the only species of mushrooms that contain active compounds. Some species from Gymnopilus, Inocybe, and Conocybe also contain psilocybin. It should be noted that in the case of Inocybe and Conocybe caution is highly recommended as these genera contain toxic species.

In the United States, psilocybin and psilocin are listed as Schedule 1 drugs, making possession of psilocybin-containing mushrooms illegal. Spores do not contain psilocybin or psilocin, which means they are legal to trade or sell in most US states. Spores are illegal in Georgia, Idaho, and California. The sale of spores for the purpose of growing hallucinogenic mushrooms is illegal. The cultivation of hallucinogenic mushrooms is considered the manufacture of a Schedule 1 substance.
