Blending Mystical Mushrooms?

Magic mushrooms, also known as shrooms or mushrooms, contain chemicals called psilocybin or psilocin, which can cause hallucinations when consumed in large doses. While grinding or blending shrooms does not affect their potency, they may take effect faster due to their larger surface area. Many people are wondering if they can combine magic mushrooms with prescription medicines like antidepressants, anxiolytics, or antipsychotics. However, the production, sale, and possession of magic mushrooms are illegal in Canada.

NIDA research on the therapeutic potential of psychedelic and dissociative drugs, including psilocybin, is growing. Psilocybin comes from certain types of psilocybe mushrooms and is metabolized in the body to the active drug psilocyn, also present in many of the same mushrooms. Consuming shrooms doesn’t have to be a nauseating experience, as there are five best methods for consumption.

Smoking shrooms may not give the same psychedelic effects as eating them, but they can be found in smoke shops and gas stations around the country.
