Wissenschaftler haben einen halluzinogenen Pilz sequenziert, der dafür bekannt ist, bei winzigen Menschen Visionen hervorzurufen. Es enthält kein bekanntes Psychedelikum.

    1. “96 percent of those who sought help after eating the mushroom reported seeing little people. The clinical term is Lilliputian hallucination, after the six-inch inhabitants of Gulliver’s Travels.

      The striking result is that Lanmaoa asiatica lacks any known hallucinogenic chemical signature. The team mined its genome and searched for the biosynthetic gene clusters that produce [psilocybin](https://psychedelics.co.uk/substance/psilocybin) in Psilocybe mushrooms and ibotenic acid in Amanita muscaria. Neither was there.

      Whatever L. asiatica is making, it is doing so via a pathway no one has seen before.”

      Woah, that’s actually incredibly exciting! It sounds like we’re about to discover a new compound or drug pathway from it

    3. I’ve seen those people walking across my dresser after taking Ambien. That was the last time I did that.

      This is interesting, but  I remain skeptical of the specific claims.  I definitely do not buy that 96% of people are having the same hallucinatory experience.  That sounds like some combination of cultural bias and hospital coding.  

    5. For what it’s worth I’ve seen those same little people hallucinations when taking ambien.

      Watch it be a metabolite from some bacteria it hosts inside or something.

      I did my PhD, in part, studying natural products. This doesn’t surprise me at all; all available data suggests we have only scratched the surface of understanding how many bioactive compounds are produced by nature.

    9. Considering the psychoactive potential of Lanmaoa asiatica has always been in question, seeing as how it is widely consumed in Czechia with practically no reports of psychological effects, i am completely unsurprised.

      „It contains no known psychedelic“

      inaccurate statement. They did not assess the chemical composition of the mushroom, they looked at its genome for genes known to be related to psilocybin and ibotenic acid biosynthesis. These are only two compounds they screened for at a genomic level.

    10. I’m guessing there’s a conversion process happening within the body that causes these visions and not so much due to what’s in the mushroom itself directly

      Oh dear this is so heartbreaking for the individuals having to go through these little people hallucinations just from eating an undercooked mushroom. Can someone point me in the direction of where to buy this mushroom? I need to be extra careful to never eat them to experience the little people.

    12. Are they chill little people, like I have enough big people issues riynow.

      if one were to look for a raw version of this, would one be able to find this in a supermarket somewhere
