Could the answer to anxiety and sleep issues be found in a mushroom? Amanita muscaria, a unique and legal psychedelic, might be the breakthrough the mental health world has been waiting for. But what makes this mushroom so special?

 

In this episode of the Peak Human Labs Podcast, Dr. Goel sits down with serial entrepreneur Alex Wolfe to explore the promising mental health benefits of Amanita muscaria, a legal psychoactive mushroom known for its calming and mood-enhancing properties. Alex, founder of Eons, shares how his company is at the forefront of microdosing technology, using muscimol—a unique compound that interacts with the brain's GABA receptors to promote relaxation and mental clarity. EON's innovative products, including a sleep aid and the new "Social Dose" (a safe, legal alternative to alcohol), are crafted to support mental wellness naturally and effectively.

 

The conversation also highlights Eon's dedication to rigorous research, with an upcoming study involving veterans to deepen understanding of Amanita’s therapeutic effects. Alex and Dr. Goel inspire listeners to consider natural options for mental wellness rooted in tradition and science.
