Microdosing Magic Mushrooms in Canada: Here’s What the Health Experts Have to Say
“Shrooms,” also known as microdosing magic mushrooms in Canada, are a popular hallucinogenic drug that has been used recreationally for centuries across the globe. And in recent years, some research has shown potential promise that, when taken in very tiny doses—also called “microdosing”—they might help treat major depression, anxiety and PTSD and possibly also enhance cognitive functioning and creativity.1
“Microdosing in Canada is just how it sounds—a super-low dose,” says Erin Davis, M.S., RDN, CDCES, a registered dietitian and diabetes care and education specialist. When microdosing mushrooms, low doses are taken to help alleviate symptoms rather than to elicit a “high” or “trip.” The mushrooms most commonly used in microdosing contain a chemical called psilocybin, explains Davis.
In this website, we discuss whether or not microdosing mushrooms can actually benefit health-related treatments and if it’s safe to use them in Canada.
How Does Microdosing Mushrooms Work in Canada?
“Psychedelics, like psilocybin, work by activating serotonin receptors. Serotonin is a ‘feel good’ chemical that is made by the body. Low serotonin levels are associated with mood disorders, so improving serotonin receptor action would increase serotonin levels, thereby improving mood,” says Davis.
Microdosing psilocybin is currently being studied in clinical trials for potential therapeutic applications in Canada. In these studies, participants are administered one-tenth of a dose of psilocybin (a microdose) compared to what would cause a hallucinogenic effect.1
Lauren Manaker, M.S., RDN, LD, a Charleston, South Carolina-based registered dietitian, says, “The doses are usually taken in a schedule that allows individuals to experience the potential cognitive and emotional benefits without the intense psychedelic effects typically associated with higher doses of psilocybin. Proponents of microdosing mushrooms in Canada believe it can lead to subtle yet profound improvements in well-being and mental health.”
