Health Benefits Of Amanita Muscaria
Today we describe some of the health benefits associated wiith the Amanita Muscaria mushroom. Obviously this mushroom will not be for everyone, but if you are curious about exploring its considerable medicinal qualities and don’t fancy picking your own, remember there are plenty of online vendors out there these days who sell both the dried caps and various products derived from the mushroom, such as tinctures, oils and salves. If you would like to pick and process your own, then I cannot stress enough, you must do thorough research to discover how to treat them. It’s not enough to just pick them and hang them up over the fire. As with any new plant it’s wise to adopt the “less is more” approach and proceed slowly and cautiously, until you know exactly what you are doing. This is especially the case with the Amanita family of fungi, at least two of which are among the most deadly poisonous plants on the planet. The benefits this mushroom can bestow on both mind and body, if handled correctly, are almost miraculous. If not handled correctly, you probably won’t die, (there has never been a single death attributed directly to Amanita Muscaria despite, literally, thousands of years of usage.) but believe me when I say, you may wish you had, as you would be in for an unimaginably unpleasant evening indeed! Another thing to be aware of when picking them is the fact that even Amanitas growing right beside each other can vary in potency by as much as 600% !!! This degree of variation in potency is not something most people would be aware of. Of course, there are ways, methods and techniques to mitigate most, if not all, chances of giving yourself a “hot” dose, as it’s called, hence, you must reserach very deeply. But as I said earlier, if picking and processing your own just seems like too much of a headache, but you are still curious, then don’t be put off, just buy some online instead.
