Amanita Research Forum

Hi all, Someone on a Facebook mushroom group I'm in in basically contradicts all the science beliefs of Amanita Dreamer. Namely that ibotenic acid is highest when the mushroom is in Young stage growth phase and that drying at high temperatures causes loss of potency. She sent me a conversion table ...

so muscimol hits that and GABA that's interesting.

And dopamine...

I may have done it. I may have found an affordable way for us to get lab tests on samples. It's a long story and I won't go into it publicly here, but I have a contact that regularly gets lab work done in India and the same test that costs $2000 dollars was maybe $100 dollars there and he works wit...

I thought Ibotenic acid hit NMDA does it also hit acetylcholine?

I have been researching thi...

T...

Sorry if this has been asked before. I couldn’t find much info about it. I have really bad insomnia. I have to take ambien almost every night and I want to get off of them. So I have some dried Amanitas coming in the mail. I plan on making a tea and microdosing. I understand everyone’s chemistry is...

well, you could buy a older generation like the Bausch & Lomb Spectronic 20... they run around 400 bucks and require a testing agent that is fairly easy to come by... they were the industry standard for over 30 years... or you can purchase a newer complicated computer enhanced version like that Col...

Yup, they are crispy and dry, but I know @amanitadreamer suggests drying them at a warmer temp, 70-80 degrees celsius I believe. I was just keen to convert as much of the Ibotenic acid as possible. Just hoping for some guidance from people who have done or are doing similar. I did nibble just a rea...
