Microdosing Amanita Muscaria Can Help With Better Quality of Life

Microdosing Amanita Muscaria has started gaining popularity due to its many health benefits and lack of hallucinogenic effects. This uplifting and amazing mushroom is also known as the Santa Claus mushroom or Mario mushroom because of the bright red cap and white spots. Cultures the world over have foraged and ingested A. Muscaria for generations. This mushroom has recently been studied in-depth and the benefits are numerous.

Recommended Dosage for Microdosing Amanita Muscaria

A micro dose of Amanita Muscaria weighs between .35 grams and .7 grams. It can be eaten raw or as a capsule, tincture, or gummy. Be sure to measure your dosage accurately. When taken in large quantities, people have reported nausea, vomiting, and dizziness.

This mushroom also has a long half-life in the body and can stay active in your bloodstream for up to 48 hours. It is highly recommended to wait at least 48 hours to ensure the effects don’t build up in your body.

Research on Microdosing Amanita Muscaria

In 2020, Baba Masha M.D. conducted a two-year investigation and collected over three thousand participants from around the world. She asked them to answer a 107-item questionnaire on how microdosing Amanita Muscaria changed their life. She published her findings in 2022 in a book called Microdosing with A. Muscaria.

She concluded that “AM microdoses have a wide range of effects on an extensive variety of pathologies of different etiologies” (p. 75) It was also found that due to the odd properties of A. Muscaria it can produce both a stimulating and a relaxing effect. These effects depend on when the mushroom is eaten. If it is eaten in the morning it generally produces energy and stimulates endurance. If it is eaten in the evening it regularly enhances relaxation and sleep.

Benefits of Amanita Muscaria

Ibotenic acid and muscimol are the active ingredients in A. Muscaria that interact with the GABA receptors in your body to induce a relaxing trance-like state. Once induced, this state can affect emotions, increase creativity, and change perceptions of time. This euphoric state is what helps many to get excited about the day in the morning and forget about it in the evening. For others it induces that much needed deep sleep.

Deep sleep is vital to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. It has been shown by the CDC that those that don’t sleep seven hours or more are at an increased risk of asthma, diabetes, heart attacks and strokes. Amanita Muscaria can help you find that deep sleep and stay there according to Dr. Masha’s study.

Other benefits of ingesting Amanita Muscaria include:

• Pain relief
• Improved recovery time
• Energized libido
• Increased appetite
• Interruption of addiction to alcohol and nicotine
