Amanita Research Forum

I recently read a journal article about the effect of Amanita muscaria on fertility: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9239690/ The study suggests that muscimol can induce an aberration called "hyperactivation" in sperm cells. I read something else that suggests it might not be a bad condition, but I'...

Thanks, I appreciate the info. I've had serotonin syndrome before and when taking AM alongside my medication last time I felt nothing like that, so I imagine it's fine, and this gives me further confidence. I'll report back after trying a higher dose.

Hi! I recently bought some powdered AM from last year's harvest. It's a relatively weak batch, and my friend and I each had 4 tsps (~15g) with just a mild benzo high.

amanitadreamer Okay, so the powder won't allow you to extract more muscimol/ibotenic acid per volume of AM? Because if that's the case, I probably won't bother with it. I watched the micro/rec dosing videos, but is there one I missed? I thought I should consume a proportion of tea's volume equal to...

Donn amanitadreamer I read this on a comment from this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=632N1RnStSk&t=134s "This could trigger what I believe is called "muscarine" poisoning. It's where muscimol turns into muscarine and causes you to go into a temporary comatose state. You will be unable to mo...
