MUSHROOM GUMMIES

Mushroom gummies are a type of edible product that combines natural mushroom extracts with a convenient, chewable, and portioned treat.

Over the last several years, the consumption of magic mushrooms has grown in popularity among those who suffer from PTSD, depression, anxiety, and substance abuse disorder. In 2023, 14 states introduced legislation on magic mushrooms and other psychedelic drugs, while 5 actually enacted legislation regarding the same substances.

While most of the individuals ordering magic mushroom gummy products do so with the intent to medicate as opposed to getting high, an inherent risk still looms over those ordering these items from unlicensed and unregulated online sources.

The Blue Ridge Poison Center has responded to multiple cases of illness linked to unregulated mushroom candies, highlighting the potential public health risks associated with consuming these inaccurately labeled products.

What Are Magic Mushroom Gummies?

Following in these same footsteps of the cannabis industry, magic mushrooms, otherwise known as psilocybin mushrooms, are infused into gummy candies in small doses. This is seemingly done for two reasons – to manifest a “delicious taste” as opposed to the unpleasant taste of the raw mushrooms and to craft a smaller, more ingestible amount known as a microdose. The effects of shrooms gummies usually start about 20 to 40 minutes after you take them.
