Brazilian Psilocybe Cubensis

Brazilian Psilocybe cubensis, commonly referred to as Brazilian shrooms, originate from Brazil, although they can also be found in Canada if you know where to look. This strain is known to evoke feelings of spiritual connection in high doses, yet its potency is considered moderate, making it suitable for beginners to magic mushrooms. Consuming Brazilian magic mushrooms can lead to psychedelic experiences such as euphoria. However, the offerings at Zoomies Canada extend beyond recreational and shamanic uses, as these mushrooms are also explored for their potential therapeutic benefits.

**About Brazilian Psilocybe Cubensis:**
For those looking to avoid psychedelic experiences, microdosing Brazilian cubensis mushrooms is an option. Microdosing doesn’t induce psychoactive effects; instead, it may enhance creativity, mood, focus, and concentration.

**Dosage:**
It is recommended that beginners start with low doses, typically between 0.5 to 1 gram, to gently introduce psychedelic experiences. Higher doses intensify the effects, which can include an uplifted mood beginning within 10 to 30 minutes of consumption.

**Appearance:**
This mushroom features a unique appearance with a long, thin stem and a broad cap. The stem is usually white but turns blue when handled, due to the oxidation of psilocybin. The golden, convex cap expands and lightens in color as it matures.
