@theconversation: Beware of “magic mushrooms” 🍄 Psilocybin use is rising fast, but research and regulation are still catching up. That means many people are using psychedelic mushrooms without clear guidance on risks or safe use. One of our health editors, Amanda Mascarelli, lives in #Colorado where it’s incredibly easy to find psilocybin products.  If you're seeking natural medicine, do it safely. University of Colorado Anschutz professor David Kroll, who studies drugs and their effects, wrote about sensible use for us.  He also shares some advice from a food and cannabis investigator with Denver's health department: “Cultivate it yourself within the law, obtain it from someone you trust, or work with a licensed facilitator. Don’t buy mystery bars at a gas station.” #mushrooms #cannabis #health
