How Is Psilocybin Researched?

psilocybin spores

Psilocybin research has taken off in the last few decades since medical experts started taking interest in the medical benefits of administering magic mushrooms among certain conditions. Here are some things to know about magic mushrooms and psilocybin spores research methods and directions:

  • Programs at major research universities – research programs have been implemented in some of the most important research universities. Some of these programs study the effects of taking psilocybin with the help of volunteers who receive carefully calculated doses of the compound among controlled circumstances, while other programs focus on the research of the chemical properties of psilocybin magic mushrooms and are conducted in laboratories.
  • The directions – many recent studies using psilocybin spores have promising results to prove the medical benefits of administering psilocybin. One of the most important discoveries related to the compound is that when it is taken and very small doses (a method called micro dosing), the substance loses its hallucinogenic effect, but continues to deliver benefits for the symptoms of depression, anxiety and addictions. The volunteers who have participated in such micro dosing programs reported an almost instant amelioration in their condition in the form of a more optimistic view on life, considerably improved cognitive functions as well as an amelioration in the symptoms related to substance withdrawal.

Why are Magic Mushroom Spores Important for Science

Image
Psilocybin is a naturally occurring psychedelic substance found in many species of mushrooms. People have used it for thousands of years for healing, religious ceremonies and magical practices. Some nationalities, for example, Masateki, have not abandoned this tradition to this day. Since the 1960s, information about psilocybin and the magic mushrooms has spread throughout the Western world. Soon the widespread use of it and of other psychedelics such as LSD and mescaline was restricted by legislation that also halted scientific research into hallucinogenic substances. In recent years, loosening regulations on purchasing magic mushroom spores for healthcare research has allowed scientists to begin researching psilocybin again. It turns out that this is a very complex compound that may serve as a tool for studying the brain and consciousness, and which may also act as a remedy for various psychological disorders. Psilocybin is a substance with very low physical toxicity but has a st
