About yesterday: a Sunday walk ๐ฒ
Foodsporen founder & owner Mart and his little explorer soaking up the forest magic.
On their path, they stumbled upon a beautiful fairy ring of Amanita muscaria, bright red caps shining through the moss like tiny forest lanterns.
Everyone knows Amanita muscaria as โthat toxic red mushroom.โ
And yes, it can be toxic if eaten raw or unprepared.
But thereโs more to the story..
When properly dried and microdosed, its active compound muscimol interacts with the brainโs GABA system, promoting calm, relaxation, and dream-like clarity.
Once feared, now being rediscovered as a gentle teacher of stillness, balance, and connection to nature. ๐
