I was addicted to drugs and cigarettes before, and one day at my lowest I took mushrooms by myself, and sat there meditating while chanting I don’t want to be addicted anymore over and over. I went cold turkey since then, and it has been 3 years now.

Aaron Burton no joke I did drugs daily for more than a dozen years. After going cold turkey I have no cravings. I have noticed just being around drugs gives me anxiety and I don’t enjoy it. I feel like there’s something subconscious going on here, or it could all be placebo haha. Mind over matter.

Been taking Lions Mane for one week. I discovered a benign brain tumor 4 years ago. It has caused Neuro degenerative and cognitive problems. This podcast quite literally saved my life. I started taking Lion's mane and wow. I feel like before my first seizure. At the 44 minute mark or so Paul talks about it. I may have beaten this horrible albatross on my brain. As I type I tear up. I'm a 30 year old man and I thought I was doomed forever to a life of unhappiness. Thank you for spreading your wisdom. As a JRE fan I'd love to talk about it sometime if given an invite with Paul even though I'm an average guy. Thank you to JRE for bringing these guests on. This one without any sort of exaggeration could have saved my life. I suffer from brain tumor, memory issues, GAD,PTSD (non combat),and epilepsy. All of these things are invisible and I suffer because I look pretty normal and even healthy for 30 years old. This man is a good man and I learned a lot from this podcast. Thank you Paul, Thank you Joe.

[@adamgm84]

Hey Kyle do you have an update on this experiment?

[@krstrid]

adamgm84 Still have some partial seizures but overall a healthy mix of Lion's Mane, GABA, L-tryptophan, cannabis, exercise 2 to 3x a week and a diet with proteins and veggies seems to be the key for me. Still have day to day issues but this allows me to manually manipulate my neurotransmitters. Hope this helps anyone that's at their bottom from a Neuro degenerative condition. It's possible to recover. I'm no doctor just a good student and willing guinea pig to myself.

Ohhh now i see where your mushroom inspiration came from. This guy got me into it too a few years back, i use my own technique to get sterile samples for growing mycelium. I made a cheap glove box, then i just dip the knife in alcohol without wiping it on anything, getting sterile stuff from inside the stem of course. The alcohol is normally dried off because it kills it i believe, but i found that it doesnt kill it completely. This way you risk less contaminants, of which i had o issues with. just drop it on some agar and youre good. There's sterile rye berry jars for sale online. I grew pink oyster mushrooms that way. Pleurotus djamor, probably spelling that wrong.

I would just like to remind everyone that Paul also helped isolate a certain variety of oyster mushrooms that actually *eat waste petroleum/oil and metabolize them into harmless compounds.* When he says fungi can save the world, he's entirely serious. I only wish he was a household name. Him saving the bees would be a greater accomplishment than Edison's improved lightbulb. People could eat dinner by candlelight. People can starve to death with the lights on though.

[@vivianvilla6702]

[@Jh0than]

For anyone wondering @1:44:00 when Paul comments oddly about the Portobello mushrooms. He is doing so because Portobello mushrooms contain hydrazine agaritine which is a known carcinogen that has caused cancer and tumor growth in the lab. This is a highly controversial subject and Paul probably does not want to create a media frenzy which could have a hugely negative affect on his livelihood and the publics perception of mushrooms. He is basically the voice for mycologists and has the potential to harm societies perception of mushrooms heavily. A lot of hard work goes into getting the legislation loose enough for scientists to really study these mycotoxins and more negative press could make it even harder..

Epilepsy and Lion's Mane. Hi all :). I am writing from Ukraine, please excuse my spelling mistakes. 10 years ago, after suffering a severe craniocerebral injury with a cerebral hemorrhage, I began to have epileptic seizures. The attacks were both day and night. Severe attacks were rare, 5-6 per year, sometimes during the day, sometimes at night. Mini attacks without loss of consciousness during the day were constant. I have been living with epileptic seizures for 10 years already =(((, the worst thing is that you don't know when it will happen, an attack can hit at any time =(((. In May of this year, I learned about lion's mane and decided to try it. So, what I want to say is that mini attacks without loss of consciousness during the day passed almost immediately and in general my physical condition and mood improved :). Now I understand that there is hope that I am not doomed and epilepsy is curable :). Now only rare attacks remain when I sleep at night, it's probably because the brain is more active in sleep. But now there is hope and too little time has passed for recovery. I've only been using Lion's Mane for half a year. I wish everyone that this miracle mushroom lion's mane brings the desired result!!! :)

@@zeppelintheobserver2573 from my experience it helps you sort out your issues going on in your life. I think you should take a large dose before microdosing… microdosing won’t have the same effect without knowing what tripping off mushrooms does to your brain. A big trip will help guide you in the right direction, and might need a couple big trips over a long period of time to find all your answers. Just know if you do take a biggish dose, like around 2.5-3.5gs, that you will have some scary thoughts and experiences throughout the trip but it’s all supposed to happen and will end eventually. -Coming from someone who’s tripped dozens of times over a decade

1:45:00 Portobello mushrooms contain a large amount of agaritine, which can be made in to hydrazine. Two parts hydrazine mixed with one part NH4NO3, creates a powerful chemical explosive, making this a National Security Issue. Paul’s hint was when he referred to this as an “Explosive Issue”.

[@urmother2.057]

[@trademarked007]

Yes it makes fuel for rockets and it should never be put in a citizens hands and it is a very serious threat because people use it in the wrong way

[@theteacher2000]

So a simple chemical reaction that every single chemist with a phd knows about is somehow "secret knowledge"?

[@idonthaveanameyet4788]

While there is some truth to the chemical properties mentioned, the statement exaggerates the practicality and immediacy of turning portobello mushrooms into a security threat: Portobello mushrooms, like many other types of mushrooms, do contain a naturally occurring compound called agaritine. Agaritine is a hydrazine derivative, which means it has a chemical structure related to hydrazine. Hydrazine Production: Hydrazine is a compound that can be synthesized and has uses in industrial and aerospace applications. However, converting agaritine from mushrooms into hydrazine is not a straightforward or practical process for individuals without advanced chemical knowledge and equipment. Chemical Explosives: Hydrazine can be used as a component in various chemical reactions, including those that produce explosives. Ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) is also known to be used in explosives. However, the specific mixture and process to create a powerful explosive from these chemicals require precise conditions and handling, making it highly dangerous and impractical for casual or unauthorized use. It is more likely that he is referring to agartine’s reputation as being carcinogenic as he has been on record stating such concerns.

Man I always feel like I was just given a $25,000 education in 2 hrs. Thanks Joe.

[@fredtello]

jeff does not have the balls to do shrooms or any or drug for that matter, all he has is personal inexperience with the topic

[@Looking4Llamas]

Sounds like someone has no idea about addiction or mushrooms. Grow up.

Jeff Maylor hahahaha slap yourself. what a closed minded moron hahaha. you are fucking laughable. p.s. your mom has your sandwich waiting upstairs young man

[@Looking4Llamas]

Jeff, you sound like the type of ignorant guy that really needs a mushroom trip. Please dont make moronic claims like that, psilocybin mushrooms are one of the safest substances one can ingest.
