Welcome to The Amanita Effect, an offshoot of Minnesota Nice Ethnobotanicals. Did you know that 1 in 8 Americans are currently prescribed anti-anxiety meds? It is a quiet epidemic and it looks like a magical little mushroom is helping people finally break free from this addiction. This mushroom is called Amanita Muscaria.

Our podcast brings you long, heartfelt stories from users, plus education on their history, research, and traditions. We started this to spread the mushroom and build a community around holistic wellness, lucid dreaming, and natural alternatives.
