Why Laboratory Grade Mushrooms Are Used to Extract Psilocybin

Despite being well-known as an illegal recreational drug, psilocybe cubensis is also rapidly becoming known as a remarkably efficient mental health treatment. The discoveries associated with psilocybin’s effect on mental health – including chronic depression and cancer-induced anxiety – have been made possible through the use of what are known as laboratory grade psilocybe spores. These are mushrooms that have been grown efficiently to produce a higher concentration of psilocybin in order to perform the necessary tests and research required to show the effectiveness of using psilocybin in various doses.

The main problem with researching magic mushrooms and psilocybin is that growing the mushrooms and extracting the active substance takes a long time. With laboratory grade mushrooms, that time can be effectively cut down to size.

When you use a laboratory grade psilocybe spores to extract psilocybin, you won’t need as many mushrooms to do it. At a larger scale of growth this could translate not only in less time used to gain the same benefits, but also in the ability to grow magic mushrooms in smaller spaces.

Psilocybe cubensis mushrooms and mushroom spores are considered by many to be the future of treating depression and anxiety without any notable side effects. Thanks to scientists perfecting the process of growing laboratory grade mushrooms and using them to extract psilocybin more effectively, we might soon look forward to the development of psilocybin pills that are far more efficient and safe than any other antidepressant drug on the market.
