Psychedelic mushrooms, or magic mushroom spores, are a type of fungi that have been around for centuries and that contain the active ingredient psilocybin and psilocin. This article will discuss what they are, the benefits of using them, and whether or not they’re legal to use.

What are Magic Mushrooms?

Magic mushrooms are a type of fungi that have played vital roles in indigenous cultures for a long time. They typically grow in moist soils, such as forest floors and fields. The type of species that are magic mushrooms are classified as Psilocybin Mushrooms and they create psychedelic effects which can be beneficial to a variety of medical ailments. They come from the same family as truffles which seem to have emerged independently of each other about 30 million years ago from underground roots near sugar-rich soil such as maple syrup forests where they absorb nutrients through their mycelium.

What do Psilocybin Mushrooms do?

Psilocybin mushrooms, or “magic mushrooms”, can cause hallucinations which may alter one’s perception of reality for up to six hours after ingestion of a single dose. The psychological effects usually only last as long as the physical sensations do because once someone stops feeling the high from their mind has realized it was an illusion created by these mushrooms. In many cases, people report that unexpected insights about themselves can occur during this experience – even ones who believe in neither psychedelics nor spirituality have reported having these experiences.

Magic mushroom spores active ingredient

The only active ingredient in magic mushroom spore capsules is psilocybin alkaloids which are the same chemicals like those found inside magic mushrooms themselves. This makes them a more pure form of the drug and they can be used as an alternative to consuming toxic substances like tobacco or alcohol, for example. They also have no addictive properties when consumed responsibly but should not be abused because there’s still a high risk of developing addiction due to their euphoric effects that make you feel good about life again if you’re suffering from depression or other conditions where serotonin levels need increased production. Psilocybin and psilocin are both types of tryptamines. The mushrooms produce the chemicals when they come into contact with oxygen, making them inactive without exposure to air or sunlight – so they cannot be eaten raw like an apple.

Psilocybin can also have a range of negative physical effects including nausea (sometimes intense), headaches, loss of appetite, chills/hot flashes, numbness in fingers tips/toes of the feet, and dry mouth.

An introduction: magic mushroom spores

Magic mushrooms are created by using their spores, often stored in spore syringes or spore prints and grow kits, to grow various fungi. The spores work by attaching themselves to certain types of wood materials such as straw and sawdust, which are then mixed with a type of grain and, with the correct amount of water moisture and humidity, the spores will eventually colonize the surface area in order to grow new mushrooms.

Some people believe that magic mushroom spores have health benefits because they contain psilocybin alkaloids – these chemicals help stimulate serotonin production in the body for up to 12 hours after consumption. This boost can be used to treat conditions like depression by providing an increase in positive feelings without any side effects or withdrawals from addiction withdrawal symptoms when it comes time for them to stop taking their medications. In terms of ingestion, you can drink them as a magic mushroom tea, eat them as an edible, or just dry them out and inhale their spores

Magic mushroom spores come in a variety of colors including white, brown/black, pinkish-red, or yellow-brown with dark purple spots on their cap. The most common type is the Psilocybe cubensis (a psilocybin species) which is also known as the Gold top, Golden Brownie, and Psilocybin mushroom.

Are magic mushroom spores legal?

The legality is often based on what country one lives in but there are many countries around the world where you would not need permission before consuming these spores. Spores are legal to ship and own in 47 states in the United States (not in California, Idaho, and Georgia). Growing magic mushroom spores may only be done for research purposes in the USA except in several cities where it is legal only on the city-wide level.

Magic mushroom spores can be ordered online at various websites that sell products used for cultivating magic mushrooms or other types of fungi such as vegan cheesemakers, organic gardeners, or hobbyists who want to create some kind of fungus on a larger scale than they could usually achieve by themselves. 

Some sites that sell Magic Mushroom spores are below. They include a wide array of magic mushroom products, including magic mushroom teas, grow kits, edibles, and more.

They’re also known to produce euphoria, give an energizing feeling (known as “magic”), visual distortions like seeing waves or spirals.

What benefits does it give?

Psilocybin mushrooms (magic mushrooms) can provide many therapeutic effects including reducing anxiety, treating cluster headaches, addiction, relieving depression by increasing levels of serotonin, and alleviating symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Psilocybin has also been showing promising signs to be beneficial for a variety of medical ailments, with the most notable being PTSD and depression. These studies are also just getting started and we look forward to hearing more on the subject in the coming years.

Should I Use Magic Mushrooms?

There have been notable benefits in studies that magic mushrooms can help with depression. If you are considering using mushrooms for personal use, we urge you to do your research before trying them out and to follow all local laws when obtaining, growing, or consuming mushrooms containing psilocybin.
