Anecdotal reports have shown psilocybin to be effective in treating mood disorders, like depression and anxiety.

In 2011, a pilot study showed that psilocybin effectively lowered depression and end-of-life anxiety in terminally ill cancer patients.

Researchers also confirmed that a single dose of psilocybin treatment significantly improved the symptoms of depression and anxiety for up to six months. This study eventually got approval for phase II research by the FDA.

What if eating a certain mushroom could harness such magical abilities? Well Lion’s mane might be that very mushroom!
