Public Health Experts Warn Against Using Unregulated Products Claiming To Contain Psilocybin, Other Mushrooms

The Washington Post (7/3, Ovalle ) reported, “Public health experts and officials are amplifying their warnings about the risks of unregulated and sometimes illegal products advertised on social media and easily purchased online or in vape shops.” Some of these products “claim to contain the hallucinogenic mushroom compound psilocybin, which is legal for use in two states but illegal federally.” And “some products contain potentially harmful synthetic chemicals or extracts from a sometimes-toxic mushroom known as amanita muscaria.”
