Exciting news today that my collaborators have been granted the first licence in NZ to cultivate Psilocybe ‘magic mushrooms’ for use in helping addiction to methamphetamine. I am providing advice on the mushrooms. #mycology 🧪
I’m all for anything to do with helping addicts. Do you know if they are looking isolate the active components for research, or if the clinical side will look to use the whole shroom? I’m guessing through the invocation of Rongoa Maori that it’s possibly the latter?
The initial trial will be with pure compound, eventually moving to whole mushroom.
