This is a very interesting article on medicinal mushrooms in relation to Asian martial arts, by Paul Stamets (I didn't know he was a black belt!): http://www.fungi.com/info/articles/martial.html
Contains an overview of Reishi, Maitake, Lion's Mane, Shiitake, and Cordyceps Sinesis

Hi, I'm new to all this. I have read some interesting things on the net about the use of psychedelic mushrooms to treat migraines. Are there any specific varieties I should look into?

Moderately potent to potent strains I think would be best. "Ecuadors or better" because there are a number of active mushrooms that would apply, but you would have to use larger amounts to obtain the same effects. I specifically would not choose the ps. cyanescens first, but that is not from personal experience just experienced selection. Regular cubies are what the articles are about. Best Wishes!

Atlas World USA has a product Agaricus Bio. Their mushroom strain has been featured in NIH-sponsered research. This study along with many other Agaricus blazei studies are contained on their homepage which offers a wealth of information regarding this important medicinal mushroom.

The site www.clusterbusters.com is the best source of info for treating neurovascular headaches (migraine, cluster headache) with psychoactive mushrooms.

You can also check the psilocybe medicine thread here:
http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/1581935/page/2/fpart/1/vc/1 - The Psilocybe Medicine Thread
You know Jonat - I realized I hadn't visited the cluster site since I wrote that article about them some time ago - I used your handy link and popped over to say hi and ask how their progress was going. While I'm still waiting for replies I am thinking they are still mostly in a "Had to help ourselves" situation which is pretty bleak, but at least more of them can and while progress hasn't been much the word has certainly gotten around and MANY more are getting help and relief.

I fractured my spine almost 2 years ago. Last week it all of a sudden started to hurt again and felt very similar to a few days after I had fractured it. I was gutted and didn't know if I would be able to work again for a long time. It would take me a long time to put on my socks or shoes, which I would have to be sat down to achieve. I had lost a great deal of flexibility in my back and it was very painful.
After a few days I was still the same. later in the evening I consumed a tea made with Psilocybe galandoi sclerotia. And yes i did trip balls, but to my amazement after about 30 minutes my back started to feel like it was healing and although it still felt rather fragile it had regained about 80 percent of its flexibility and hardly any pain! After the trip had worn off my back still felt really good, the next day I was able to get up and go to work, and do some fairly strenuous work all day! to me this felt miraculous, and I have a new respect for fungi in general, not just "active" fungi.
I find myself now wanting to understand and learn more about edible medicinal fungi.
Just thought I'd share my experience. I'd be interested in hearing if anyone else has had similar experiences with any fungi, especially in relation to helping with back/ spinal problems. Thanks for reading.

GREAT ARTICLE!
I have been using mushroom for anxiety. They make me calm and relaxed, leaving my mood uplifted. I can't imagine not ever having them. I had very bad anxiety and high stress to the point that my hair was falling out in clumps. I came across some shrooms and it was a 180 a half hour after I ate them. Now I eat them every 2 to 3 days as needed. I like to eat a few grams so I can get a nice trip. However there are times I can't. So I eat just enough to mellow me out.
THANK YOU GOD for the medicine that maintains me!

I got some chaga today along with some other medicinal mushrooms the chaga tea is AWESOME! tastes like a mix between black and green tea, can't figure out how to post pictures though, I want to ID one I think might be Ganoderma Resinaceum. This is my first form. I'm surprised there aren't more posts about medicinal mushrooms, it seems (from my reading) there's a large selection of viable and potent medicine to be had.
