Getting to Know Fly Agaric: Revisiting Myths and Reality

Updated on October 4, 2024

Since childhood, we have been conditioned to think of the fly agaric as a dangerous and harmful mushroom, posing a threat to humans. Fairy tales create a negative image, associating it with evil characters and dark forests. But does the fly agaric truly deserve this reputation? Let’s explore.

Imagine a scenario: two people meet. One of them is already familiar with the beneficial properties of fly agaric, while the other still remembers scary stories about its dangers. The first person eats a small mushroom cap, causing the second person to react: “Are you crazy? You’re going to poison yourself!” However, after an explanation of its benefits and proper dosage, the second person gradually sheds their fears and begins to show interest in this mushroom.

After responsibly studying the topic, they come to understand that fly agaric is not an enemy, but rather a friend. To fully grasp this, let’s consider a few facts:

Firstly, poisoning requires consuming about 5 kg of fresh fly agaric, which is physically impossible. Our body is not foolish – nausea will begin after the first cap.

Secondly, wild animals like foxes, bears, and moose consume fly agaric to treat various ailments, including intestinal parasites.

Thirdly, our ancestors considered fly agaric a sacred mushroom, using it in healing, shamanic rituals, and sometimes even as a “Friday night drink.” Therefore, fly agaric can be seen as a friend when used correctly.

How to Start Getting to Know Fly Agaric? We recommend starting with a mix of red fly agaric and lion’s mane mushroom. This combination provides not only the calming effects of fly agaric but also enhances brain function thanks to the lion’s mane. The dosage in each capsule is 0.5 g, making it ideal for beginners. A 1-2 month course will allow you to track the body’s response to microdosing.

Fly Agaric Research

Scientific studies confirm the safety of fly agaric for humans. It is being studied as a treatment for Alzheimer’s disease and epilepsy. Authors such as mycologist Mykhailo Vyshnevsky note that microdosing fly agaric helps stabilize mood, improve sleep, reduce panic attacks, and even aid in quitting harmful habits.

The use of fly agaric in medicine has been known since ancient times. For example, the Japanese Institute of Nutrition developed a method for processing fly agaric back in 1993 that completely removes toxic substances. These recommendations are still used today in the production of modern fly agaric-based products.

In modern research conducted by Psyched Wellness Ltd., the safety of fly agaric extract containing muscimol was proven. The Canadian Ministry of Health has included fly agaric in its registry of medicinal products, and further research has confirmed the absence of toxicity when properly used.
