To clear up some misinformation in this thread: Psilocybin and psilocin are the only active chemicals in mushrooms and the psilocybin simply converts to psilcoin in the body so for all practical purposes, psilocin is the only active. EdibleStereos is spreading a lot of fear mongering by talking about loss of actives and oxidation of actives. As we took leave of María Sabina and her clan at the crack of dawn, the curandera said that the pills had the same power as the mushrooms, that there was no difference. This was a confirmation from the most competent authority, that the synthetic psilocybin is identical with the natural product. As a parting gift I let María Sabina have a vial of psilocybin pills. She radiantly explained to our interpreter Herlinda that she could now give consultations even in the season when no mushrooms grow. Albert Hofmann, LSD: My Problem Child People keep making a fuss about stability during and after extraction. Only psilocin is unstable, as indicated by the below quote. As seen in the above quote, psilocybin alon is what was used for the pills, and this is true for mushroom research to this day. This is probably due to the stability factor. In fact, psilocin is probably just a degradation product of psilocybin, speaking in outside-the-body contexts. So don't even worry about the psilocin. The methanolic extracts could be stored in a freezer at -5C for over 1 year with little change, although storage at room temperature led to complete loss of psilocin and some loss of psilocybin within a few months.
