Where is Amanita Muscaria Legal in the United States?

Where is Amanita Muscaria Legal in the United States?

Amanita muscaria is one of the most iconic mushrooms of all time, known for its use in ceremonies around the world over the last several centuries.  Muscimol, its key intoxicating compound, gives the mushroom its psychedelic effects, with properties somewhat similar to those of psilocybin, the more well-known psychedelic compound in many “magic mushroom” species.

With amanita muscaria being a hallucinogen, it may be surprising to see it being sold on the market.  After all, wouldn’t a mushroom with these properties be illegal?  Let’s take a look at what the law says, both federally, and according to each state.

What Does Federal Law Say About Amanita Muscaria?

Amanita muscaria is, surprisingly, a fully legal mushroom under federal law, and always has been.  While psilocybin mushrooms are illegal in the United States, those that contain muscimol as their intoxicating agent are perfectly fine to be sold and purchased, with no restrictions of any kind.

Is Amanita Muscaria Legal in Each of the 50 States?

I am interested in trying several of the different ones. I was ran over 22 years ago and it broke both legs and broke my neck at C6 an7 and cracked it between C 5an 6. I was told I would never be able to walk again and I didn’t for 2 years.. I had been to 2 different neurosurgeons and they told me that they was nothing that could be done. 2 years later I located a Dr Michael bucci that’s supposed to be one of the best doctors in the United States is a neuro doctor. When I went to him he told me yes he could put a metal plate down my spine and he screwed it to my spine he cut my throat and went in through the front and put that plate on my spine and screwed it to it and then tied all the torn ligaments and everything back together in there it took me 2 years to learn to walk but I can walk now and I can run most people don’t even know that ever happened to me when they see me out I don’t even limp now. But I’ve been in constant pain every day since. My doctors have me on morphine and lortab and I I’ve been on that for 22 years. And I want to get off of it. I know that it’s got to be slowly killing me. But I also have the pain to wear I don’t sleep I stay up most all the time I sleep two or three hours a day. My left arm is still weak when I broke my neck I lost all the use in my left arm but I got that back about 50% but it’s still weak in it gives me problems it hurts. I’m not looking to get high or stay high or anything like that I want to try this and see if it will help me with my pain and I’m going to try one of the others I’ve been reading on all of them I won’t try them all at the same time but I will try one see which one works and didn’t go off on it and try the other. Also been on this pain medicine I have developed a ED problems. And I’m going to look into trying that. That’s the reason that I hurt most of the time because I try to stay off of my pain medicine because it causes my Ed problems. If I don’t take my pain medicine I don’t have the ED problems but I hurt if I don’t. So I have to give one thing up for the other. And my girlfriend is 25 years younger than I am. So I got to figure out something here.
