Recreational doses of psilocybin mushrooms are typically between 1.0 to 3.5–5.0 g of dry mushrooms and 10 to 50 g of fresh mushrooms. [ 48 ] [ 51 ] This corresponds to a dosage of psilocybin of about 10 to 50 mg. [ 51 ] Usual doses of the common species P. cubensis range around 1.0 to 2.5 g, while about 2.5 to 5.0 g dried mushroom material is ...
One cup (close to 100 grams) of button mushrooms, for instance, contains nearly 3 grams of protein, 2 grams of fiber, 373 milligrams of potassium and smaller amounts of magnesium, iron, phosphorus ...
In a 100 grams (3.5 ounces) amount, raw mushrooms provide 22 calories and are a rich source (20% or more of the Daily Value, DV) of B vitamins, such as riboflavin, niacin and pantothenic acid, selenium (37% DV) and copper (25% DV), and a moderate source (10–19% DV) of phosphorus, zinc and potassium (table).
For a modest psychedelic effect, a minimum of one gram of dried Psilocybe cubensis mushrooms is ingested orally, 0.25–1 gram is usually sufficient to produce a mild effect, 1–2.5 grams usually provides a moderate effect and 2.5 grams and higher usually produces strong effects. [31]
In a 100-gram (3 + 1 ⁄ 2-ounce) reference serving, Agaricus mushrooms provide 92 kilojoules (22 kilocalories) of food energy and are 92% water, 3% carbohydrates, 3% protein, and 0.3% fat. They contain high levels of riboflavin , niacin , and pantothenic acid , with moderate content of phosphorus (see table).
Muscimol (also known as agarin or pantherine) is one of the principal psychoactive constituents of Amanita muscaria and related species of mushroom. Muscimol is a potent and selective orthosteric agonist for the GABA A receptor [3] and displays sedative-hypnotic, depressant and hallucinogenic [citation needed] psychoactivity.
Psilocybin comprises approximately 1% of the weight of Psilocybe cubensis mushrooms, and so nearly 1.7 kilograms (3.7 lb) of dried mushrooms, or 17 kilograms (37 lb) of fresh mushrooms, would be required for a 60-kilogram (130 lb) person to reach the 280 mg/kg LD 50 value of rats. [56]
The caps of the mushrooms are brown to buff, broadly convex to flattened and have a diameter up to 9 cm (3.5 in), while the white stipes are up to 9 cm (3.5 in) long and 0.7 cm (0.3 in) thick. As a bluing species in the genus Psilocybe , P. allenii contains the psychoactive compounds psilocin and psilocybin , and it is consumed recreationally ...
