Toxic magic?
    #23872426 - 11/27/16 03:24 PM (7 years, 2 months ago)

Hey all,

Newbie here. I was just online looking for info about psilocybin mushrooms and found this on a local shroom website:

"Q14: Do hallucinogenic mushrooms grow around here?
A: Yes. Hallucinogenic mushrooms can be found in Washington State. There are eight known toxins in hallucinogenic mushrooms. Some of the negative consequences of experimenting with them are prolonged dialysis or kidney transplant, permanent damage to liver, or death."

http://www.kitsapmushrooms.org/faq.php

I am guessing that this is "misinformation" (at best)... I have not come across this kind of info anywhere. Listening to Paul Stamets online, he never mentions anything about toxic magic mushrooms.

Thoughts?

Thanks, Mike.

I've heard people elsewhere describe hallucinogenic mushrooms as "poisonous". I think it's caused by the silly notion that anything psychoactive and illegal is bad and dangerous

Never heard of kidney damage from shrooms.

Psilocybin containing mushrooms are not toxic. Some sources will erroneously report them as poisonous because they are idiots and / or they wish to mislead other people from eating things which they irrationally consider harmful or immoral. The difference between psilocybin and toxic chemicals such as amatoxins found in deadly Amanita species is very clear at high doses.

In the case of your source they attributed symptoms of amatoxin poisoning to psilocybin because they are idiots or intentionally malicious. I would not trust anything they say without corroborating evidence. In which case there is plenty of evidence that psilocybin containing species do occur in washington state, so at least they could get something right...
