New legal psychedelic: Amanita Mushroom gummies

When most people think of psychedelic mushrooms (AKA magic mushrooms), they only consider mushrooms that contain psilocybin. However, mushrooms that contain psilocybin are inaccessible and totally illegal in most parts of the United States.

There’s good news though–there is more than one type of psychedelic mushroom, some of which contain no psilocybin at all, like Amanita Mushrooms–the key active ingredient in the latest product from Klean Kloud, LLC.

MEET THE NEW LEGAL PSYCHEDELIC FROM KLEAN KLOUD LLC

With interest in legal entheogens (substances that produce an alternate state of consciousness) growing in recent years, we just added an item of particular interest to our collection of premium products– Amanita Mushroom gummies. These gummies deliver just enough of the active agents—muscimol and ibotenic acid—to generate a chilled-out, psychedelic experience.

This marks the first time that a legal psychedelic is added to our lineup of popular products!

WHAT ARE AMANITA MUSHROOMS AND HOW DO THEY WORK?

Amanita Mushrooms are scientifically known as Amanita Muscaria but are sometimes referred to in everyday language as fly agaric mushrooms.

These mushrooms are impressive to look at with their iconic appearance. The fungi have trademark white bodies with red or yellow caps sporting prominent white spots that look a bit like raised warts.

Amanita mushrooms grow natively in multiple regions throughout the Northern Hemisphere. However, the spores of these fungi have managed to spread to other areas below the equator and now grow freely in multiple places, especially near conifers and birch trees.

Throughout history, amanitas have been used as entheogens due to their low-grade hallucinogenic properties. The mushrooms contain the two psychoactive alkaloids muscarine and ibotenic acid, which convert into muscimol either in the body or through a decarboxylation process when heated. While these agents may have hallucinogenic properties at high doses, these compounds interact with different receptors than typical psychedelic agents like psilocybin. Psilocybin interacts with neural transmitters like serotonin, while muscimol interacts with GABA receptors.

Fly agaric mushrooms have the potential to offer a list of different effects and benefits due to how the active alkaloids work. Some researchers have pointed out that the extracts are highly antioxidant, may have neuroprotective properties, and may be good options for certain psychiatric conditions.

WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN TAKING AMANITA MUSHROOM GUMMIES

Amanita mushroom gummies are made with an amanita extract that contains two active effect-inducing ingredients–muscimol and ibotenic acid. Packed with 300mg of amanita extract in each gummy, these gummies offer a mildly psychedelic experience that has been referred to as “chill” and “relaxing”.

It’s important to note that Amanita mushroom extracts are nowhere near as potent as psilocybin, and the active ingredients don't produce quite the same effects in reasonable doses.

More than anything, taking these gummies will create a chilled-out, anesthetic feeling that can lead to total relaxation and better sleep.

For those who started by taking smaller doses, the initial effect would be relaxation and a better overall sleep quality. With smaller doses, you typically do not experience auditory or visual hallucinations, even though those effects are wholly possible in larger doses. Some experts claim that these mushrooms offer an experience that is comparable to smoking a relaxing strain of cannabis.

Within about 30 to 90 minutes, you will start to feel the effects settle in. Some people report a dream-like state in which they remain conscious, but their mind wanders a bit more freely. Others claim of a relaxing out-of-body experience where their mind wanders and generates thought-provoking, often existential conversations with themselves.

Your body will be overall relaxed, and you may feel a bit giddy or euphoric. Further, the extracts from this mushroom are known to cause a sense of tranquility and potentially highly vivid dreams. Artists and many creative types seek this pleasurable experience as a way of inspiring them or pushing them further in their field.
