What is Psilocybin?
Psilocybin, or Raw Magic Mushrooms, is a naturally occurring psychedelic compound produced in certain species of mushrooms. It is most notably present in the fungus genus Psilocybe. Once ingested, Psilocybin is converted by the body into Psilocin, which causes mind-altering effects. In fact, in some cases these effects can resemble that of LSD or even DMT.
These unique compounds bind with the serotonin receptors in your brain, reducing depression and providing an intense euphoria. These effects can also include visual and mental hallucinations, and changes in perception. These changes are especially noticeable in regards to the passing of time, which seems slowed almost to a stop. Negative effects can include nausea and increased levels of anxiety. These effects are usually reserved for rare cases, and are most common when proper recommended doses have been exceeded.
How long Does Psilocybin Last?
The intensity and duration of Raw Psilocybin is subject to many factors. First and foremost is the species of mushroom. Some species also contain compounds like baeocystin and norbaeocystin. Both of these compounds intensify the psychedelic effects of Psilocybin. In addition, factors like set and setting, dosage, and individual physiology can play a serious role.
On average, effects last from 2-6 hours. However, based on Psilocybin’s distortion of the brain’s perception of time, it can feel as if they have lasted much longer
Health benefits of Psilocybin Mushrooms
Raw Psilocybin works by activating serotonin receptors in your brain. Most of these receptors are located in the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain that regulates cognition, perception and mood. As a result, users of Psilocybin experience a multitude of benefits.
Firstly, the activation of these serotonin receptors helps to restore and rewire broken pathways in the brain. As a result of these restored connections, serotonin is released, offering a sense of accomplishment and in turn, improved mood.
The benefits don’t stop there, in fact, that’s just where they get started. Users of Psilocybin have reported improved vision and hearing from regular moderated use. In many cases, Psilocybin has been documents as improving brain activity, leading to better memory, better co-ordination and better problem-solving abilities.
This is likely due to the positive effect Psilocybin has on neurogenesis in the brain, helping new Neurons form from stem cells. In essence, Psilocybin works to try and repair and enhance brain function.
