Fascinating
As many of you already know, I am a fan of mushrooms and weed. I've become friends with someone that grows mushrooms and has even began creating their own varieties or subspecies of mushrooms. It is a lot more complicated than creating a new strain of cannabis.
He starts by either collecting spores or makes cuts off the fruiting body of one variety of mushrooms and placing the cutting in an agar plate. Then after a while, he checks things under microscopes and looks for certain things to isolate and then transfer to other plates and does some other sciencey type stuff. It is all way over my head at the moment, but it takes about a year or more to isolate a new variety and get it ready for colonization and growth.
One cool thing about magic mushrooms that scientists are finding out is that the psilocybin in the mushrooms actually has a lot of different health benefits. It has been shown to regenerate cells in mice, increasing their life span. That means I should be pretty much immortal with how often I plan on consuming these throughout the remainder of my life.
They are also finding out that there are many different alkaloids in the mushrooms that have many different health benefits, like reducing inflammation and helping with pain. I have noticed that different varieties of mushrooms have a different body effect for me.
Some varieties relax my body so much that I barely want to move and it makes my body kind of buzz, while others seem to make it hard for me to sit still while on them.
It is really cool that science is starting to really research these things and find out how they work within the body. They have been used for thousands of years but modern science doesn't seem to truly understand them and their benefits.
It will be cool to see in the next few years how things change within healthcare as we make more advances now that AI is helping to make advances happen so quickly. It is a pretty cool time to be alive to witness all of this.
Wow, this is so cool to see. It's great that you have such an appreciation for this topic.
Of course, I have read about your experiences with this type of shroom, and hopefully you know where I stand on it as well! 😄 I think it's great, and should definitely be researched more! I believe there are many areas where shrooms could take over: prescriptions for trauma, anxiety, depression, lack of purpose, perhaps physical as well...
(Every time I see mushrooms, I quietly give thanks to our early ancestors 🙏 I could only imagine being the first people to test whether it would kill ya or not! 💀 Plus, could you imagine the very first person's experience on magic mushrooms?! They must have thought they entered another world!)
Thank you. I love mushrooms. They have transformed my entire life. It's cool the healing that they can bring to someone.
As are just at the beginning of this resurgence of psychedelics and it is pretty exciting. It's crazy how something that has been used for thousands of years by people has become so demonized recently. We are about to have some major advances in the medical field as they begin to really study these substances.
Wowwww, great Macro shots
!DIY
Thank you
🍄💚 Looks beautiful!
Thanks
You have taken some very beautiful and amazing shoots. There are so many great pictures.
Hola, me gustan sus fotos.
Every year, mushrooms in our place grow in the mountains. We have a lot of it - some are edible and others are not. As i see the photos, some kind that I see here but I do not know the name.
The mushrooms are fascinating indeed, and your photographs capture their visual magical essence well.
During more than one trip I recall the mushrooms healing different parts of my body and brain.
Awesome post man.
