Diving Into the Wonderful World of Fungi with Alli Schaper

In this episode, I sit down with Alli Schaper, co-founder of Super Mush, Into the Multiverse, and the Microdosing Collective, and an encyclopedia for all things functional and psychedelic mushrooms. We discuss everything from the distinction between mushrooms and fungi; to our human connection and long history with mushrooms; to how the mycelium network connects every living organism. Alli explains how she came to use functional mushrooms for her health, what is happening legally right now in the U.S. with psychedelics, and how psilocybin-assisted therapy is being used for treating PTSD, mental health, and more. We also discuss how psilocybin creates new neural pathways in the brain, microdosing vs. tripping, and the work Alli is doing to promote industry regulation, accessibility, and transparency within both psychedelics and functional mushrooms.   Key Takeaway / Points: On fungi, mushrooms, and the mycelium network Our human connection and history with mushrooms How Alli came to using functional mushrooms for her health What’s happening legally right now in the U.S. with psychedelics  On psilocybin-assisted therapy for treating PTSD, mental health, and more On the necessity for drug policy and industry regulation within psychedelics On the cultural stigma of marijuana or psychedelic use versus alcohol use How psilocybin creates new neural pathways in the brain Microdosing with psilocybin vs. tripping On educating yourself about how various mind-altering substances affect your health An overview of how guided psychedelic trips work Alli’s work with her functional mushroom product line, Super Mush, and its parent company Into the Multiverse   Links:   Read “Drug Use for Grown-Ups” by Dr. Carl Hart here Check out the Microdosing Collective here Read the “Tripping Down the Aisle” article here Check out Super Mush, Alli’s functional mushroom product line here and use code CAMERON for 20% off your order   This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.
