Psilocybin mushrooms, also referred to as magic mushrooms, are a type of fungi containing psychoactive compounds like psilocybin and psilocin that may alter one’s perception of reality while leading to altered states of consciousness.

Mushrooms can be consumed in various forms, from baked goods and pills to tea and Lemon Tek, an ancient practice whereby mushrooms are soaked in lemon juice before consumption; this technique supposedly accelerates and strengthens their effects faster.
