Medicinal/Culinary Mushrooms
Dr. Michael Beug (virtual)
This talk will be in two parts: Part 1 on psychotropic fungi and Part 2 on general medicinal/culinary fungi. Part 1 deals briefly with various Amanita groups, where the principal toxins are muscimol and ibotenic acid. It then explores in-depth the species containing psilocybin and psilocin as the main active compounds and their use in dealing with PTSD, depression, and more. Part 2 examines mushroom food value and nutrition and the vast range of potential functional foods and medicinal uses of fungi. Dr. Beug will describe mushroom use by individuals diagnosed with cancer and some incredible outcomes.
