Natural mushroom extract has been gaining attention for its superior therapeutic effects compared to synthesized
psilocybin. This phenomenon can be attributed to several key factors that distinguish natural extracts from their synthesized counterparts.
Complex Chemical Composition
Natural mushroom extracts contain a complex mix of compounds that work synergistically to produce therapeutic effects. Psilocybin, psilocin, and others, interact in ways that enhance your buzz. They all
interact with your serotonin receptors. Psilocybin is converted into psilocin after ingestion, and both compounds act as agonists, or activators, of serotonin receptors, particularly the 5-HT2A receptor. This activation leads to changes in brain activity, including altered perception, mood, and cognition, which contribute to the psychedelic experience of your “buzz.” The combination of psilocybin and psilocin working on serotonin receptors enhances your overall trip compared to either compound alone. This results in a more profound and enjoyable experience for you.
Entourage Effect
The entourage effect suggests that compounds in natural extracts collaborate, yielding stronger therapeutic effects. This effect surpasses the efficacy of any single compound acting alone. This phenomenon is believed to contribute to the enhanced therapeutic effects of natural mushroom extracts.
Potential Presence of Unknown Compounds
Natural mushroom extracts may contain additional compounds that have not yet been identified or studied. These unknown compounds play a role in the therapeutic effects of the extract. It’s prefered by me to ingest the combination of compounds together.
Preservation of Natural Structure
The process of synthesizing psilocybin may alter its chemical structure, potentially affecting its therapeutic properties. Natural mushroom extracts, on the other hand, retain the natural structure of the compounds, which may contribute to their superior therapeutic effects.
Enhanced Bioavailability
Natural mushroom extracts may have higher bioavailability compared to synthesized psilocybin, meaning that a greater proportion of the active compounds are absorbed into the body. This increased bioavailability could contribute to the enhanced therapeutic effects of natural extracts.
A Promising Future for Therapeutic Applications
In conclusion, the superior therapeutic effects of natural mushroom extract compared to synthesized psilocybin can be attributed to its complex chemical composition, entourage effect, potential presence of unknown compounds, preservation of natural structure, and enhanced bioavailability. I personally prefer to ingest the entire natural magic mushroom dried on pizza with spicy toppings like hot peppers, onions and spicy sausage.
