Off topic post: Mr Stamets has invented altered mushroom mycelia which are very good at attracting and destroying pathogens, biopesticides and insects. This can replace nearly everything Monsanto has invented.
He’ll end up dead. But seriously he has patents on several compounds that are antiviral AND antimicrobial from Agarikon mushrooms. I believe he’s trying to grow them in lab not sure on success yet. They’re only found in Pac NW & I think Asia. I’ve grown mushrooms myself & it’s a fascinating hobby. Stamets saved his Mom from cancer using Turkey Tail mushrooms but I think she might have already been on chemo? Not 100% on that.
Yeah, if you’re a mycophile. Most can’t or won’t. Paul Stamets company has good, fresh chaga fyi. I take a few medicinal mushrooms.
