    The chitin that makes up shrooms causes stomach upset because your body can’t do anything with it. Making tea and discarding the solids may provide a smoother experience.

    I’m sure there are other more thorough forms of extraction, but this is the basic way I know of.

      til chitin isn’t just a bug thing, and i am disturbed. somehow eating mushrooms is now akin to eating bugs at this moment. 😩

        Look up stuff like lemontek. If you use a sugar base, psilocybin is sugar soluble. Should cut out the nasty feelings and be just slightly more potent. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.
