The active compounds, muscimol and ibotenic acid, interact with GABA receptors in the brain to promote relaxation, vivid dreams, and altered states of consciousness.

Amanita muscaria is not a classic psychedelic like psilocybin, but it can induce unique visionary states and vivid dreams — especially when prepared with clever formulations.

Synthetic muscimol may replicate the primary active compound found in Amanita muscaria, but it lacks the full spectrum of trace elements naturally present in the mushroom. These subtle compounds are believed to play a role in modulating absorption, duration, and overall effects, creating a more balanced and immersive experience that synthetic versions struggle to replicate.

People often need to take 3 to 5 times the dose of synthetic muscimol compared to raw Amanita extract, and even then, the effects tend to be shorter-lasting and less pronounced. Natural Amanita extracts, on the other hand, preserve the full entourage of alkaloids, allowing for a more authentic, long-lasting, and well-rounded experience.

Yes! Amanita is well-known for its dream-enhancing properties, especially when combined with visionary herbs like blue lotus and calea zacatechichi. Many people use our amanita gummies for the sole purpose of inducing lucid dream states.

When used as directed, amanita gummies are safe. All our products undergo rigorous third-party testing to ensure they meet the highest safety and quality standards. We also test every batch for ibotenic acid — the best amanita gummies contain small concentrations of this compound to enhance the effects of muscimol, but can be dangerous in high amounts.

Start with one gummy to gauge your tolerance. Effects typically begin within 30–60 minutes and can last for several hours.

For lucid dreaming, take 1–2 gummies about one hour before bed. To enhance the experience, try applying lucid dream techniques such as reality checks (asking yourself if you’re dreaming throughout the day) or wake-back-to-bed (WBTB) (waking up after a few hours of sleep, then going back to sleep with intention). Keeping a dream journal can also help improve dream recall and strengthen the effects over time.

Store all Area 52 gummies in a cool, dark place to maintain their flavor and potency. Avoid exposing them to heat or direct sunlight. Make sure to reseal the package between uses completely.

Amanita gummies can last for several hours, with effects typically beginning 30–60 minutes after consumption. The duration depends on your tolerance, the specific formulation, and whether you’ve combined them with other mind-expanding herbs or practices.
