Re: Why do people think mushrooms are poisonous? [Re: drift]

Even my stupid cousin who is like 8 years older than told me once. "That he saw tracers @ night for like a year one time after an acid trip. and that hish back was all fucked up." I was like bullllllshit and told him it was probably his imagination. "He's like yeah I don't know anything about acid, I've just lived it." Yeah right motherfucker don't talk to me about some time you tripped 12 years ago and make up some stupid bullshit that isn't true. I told him clean lsd leaves you feeling like you have been born again the next day(at a high enough dose). No negative side effects whatsoever. I told him and my uncle that acid and mushrooms were some of the safest drugs you could ever want. He's a fucking stupid drunk though and doesn't have any idea what the fuck he is talking about. Him and his fat wife both dismiss mushrooms n such now, but they told me they have eaten them before. They saw "cartoons frogs" frog cartoons huh? Sounds like some made up CW bullshit to me. :rolleyes: They just both irk the fuck out of me, because they think they know everything lmao. They won't open their hearts to psychedelics, but will get shitface drunk till they puke every weekend... I kinda feel sorry for them, but its their own stupidity that is holding them back.  :awedrugs:

Magic mushrooms are toxic. But barely. That doesn't mean that is why you trip.

A human would have to eat something like 3 pounds of dried cubensis to reach the LD50 of psilocybin for rats, or maybe it was rabbits.


BTW it's 19 lb.
Water IS toxic. You'd need much less than 1900 lt of water to kill you.

You drink a litre of water a day...

i hear some of that same bs..:mad2:those are the people who are afraid to open up their minds and enjoy what nature has given us.:mushroom2:


nature also gave us cancer :shrug:

......:sad:but true.
this may sound a bit stupid but ive always thought that the cure for cancer just might be found in an undiscoverd mushroom sp.somewhere out in a rainforest.:stoned:


nothing stupid about that - mushrooms are the cure for tons of things, but I think cancer is a little more difficult then that.

From the Shroomery:

Psilocybin does not qualify as a highly toxic substance when one uses traditional measures of acute toxicity such as the LD 50 (the dose required to kill 50% of experimental animals, usually rats.) Psilocybin has an LD 50 of 280mg/kg. In comparison, the LD 50’s of LSD, THC (the active compound in marijuana), and mescaline are 30mg/kg, 42mg/kg, and 370 mg/kg.

From Wikipedia:

The toxicity of psilocybin is low; in rats, the oral LD50 is 280 mg/kg, approximately one and a half times that of caffeine. When administered intravenously in rabbits, psilocybin's LD50 is approximately 12.5 mg/kg[38] (however rabbits are extremely intolerant to the effects of most psychoactive drugs). The lethal dose from psilocybin toxicity alone is unknown at recreational or medicinal levels, and has never been documented. Psilocybin makes up roughly 1% of the weight of Psilocybe cubensis mushrooms, and so nearly 1.7 kilograms of dried mushrooms, or 17 kilograms of fresh mushrooms, would be required for a 60 kg person to reach the 280 mg/kg LD50 rate of rats.

And I think the LD50 for water is like 90ml/kg for rats.
