A new study suggests that psilocybin, the active compound in magic mushrooms, may be a viable alternative to traditional antidepressants. Researchers found that a single dose of psilocybin was just as effective as a six-week course of escitalopram (Lexapro) in reducing depression symptoms, with additional benefits for overall well-being.

Despite being illegal, Shroomyz has opened a magic mushroom shop in downtown London, Ont. The store sells various psilocybin-containing products, such as gummies, chocolate bars, and capsules. Owner Bobbie Richards believes these products can help people get off opioids and manage pain and anxiety. However, police have stated that they will enforce the law and raid such establishments when necessary.
