Frequently Asked Questions

What is Muscimol?
Muscimol acts as a GABA agonist. It is found naturally in certain species of mushrooms including the Amanita Muscaria and has historical shamanic use.

What is Ibotenic Acid?
Ibotenic acid is a naturally occurring compound found in certain species of mushrooms including Amanita Muscaria, Pantherina, and more. It is a potent agonist of the neurotransmitter glutamate. When ingested, ibotenic acid is metabolized by the body into muscimol, which acts as a GABA agonist.

Are Your Amanita Mushroom Products Decarboxylated?
Yes. Our products go through both a heat cycle and PH assisted decarboxylation process to ensure the best end results.

How Do You Ensure Product Safety?
First we test the raw material for safety, then the mushrooms proceed to decarboxylation. The mushrooms are pulverized into a powder and introduced to a safe water-based solution, where the powder undergoes MUSC™ ultrasonic extraction. The high intensity ultrasonic extraction process breaks down the cell barriers containing Muscimol, Ibotenic Acid, and other compounds of interest. This enables bioavailability up to 10x greater than competing mushroom products. 

I'm New To This... How Much Should I Take?
The optimal dose for an individual depends on their body composition, metabolism, and tolerance levels. Carefully adjusting and testing the dose, with a specific goal in mind, is important in determining what works best for you. Muscimol may be intoxicating. Consult your physician for personalized dosing.

What Is Microdosing?
The term "microdose" can be understood in different ways depending on the context. Scientifically, it refers to a very small dose of a substance that has an effect on the subconscious mind but does not produce overt psychoactive effects. In popular culture, microdosing often refers to the practice of taking a small amount of a psychoactive substance in order to experience some of its effects without disrupting daily functioning. To determine the appropriate microdose for oneself, it is generally recommended to start with a very small dose and gradually increase it until the desired effects are achieved. This process, known as titration, allows the individual to find the minimum effective dose that works for them personally. It is important to note that microdosing is a highly individualized process and what works for one person may not work for another.
