Have you ever heard of people ending up in the ER due to mushroom poisoning? These frequent accidents occur due to the fact that people think they “know” which mushrooms are safe to eat and which are not. Reality shows us that many of them are wrong. Things get even more complicated when it comes to psychoactive mushrooms (also called “magic mushrooms”) due to the fact that the psychological profile of the persons willing to try this type of mushrooms includes a higher tolerance for risk.
