In Fairfield County, Connecticut, psilocybin mushrooms are being cultivated in a humidified “fruiting chamber” in the basement of a private home. Recent studies have indicated that psilocybin mushrooms, also known as “magic mushrooms,” have shown promise in treating a variety of mental health conditions such as anxiety, anorexia, depression, PTSD, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and substance abuse. Scientists believe that psilocybin may promote neuroplasticity, which is a rewiring of the brain that can provide fresh perspectives on longstanding psychiatric problems. Despite being classified as a Schedule 1 substance in the U.S. and illegal at the federal level, many municipalities and states like Colorado have moved to decriminalize psilocybin use locally. Oregon has even legalized the adult use of mushrooms, with regulations requiring them to be administered within “psilocybin service centers.”
However, not all mushroom products are safe. Prophet Premium Blends recently recalled their Diamond Shruumz-infused cones, chocolate bars, and gummies due to the presence of muscimol, a chemical found in mushrooms that can cause seizures, loss of consciousness, nausea, vomiting, abnormal heart rates, involuntary muscle contractions, and agitation. The recall includes all flavors and products of any date, as there have been thirty-nine reported illnesses across 20 states related to the consumption of these products. Consumers are advised to throw away any Diamond Shruumz product and contact Prophet Premium Blends with their order number to secure a refund.
