Mydecine has Breakthrough Discovery in Medicinal Mushrooms

Mydecine Innovations Group Inc. has announced a groundbreaking discovery in their psilocybin research. Mydecine is an emerging biotech and life sciences company focused on developing solutions for a range of mental health problems. They operate in Canada as well as in their mycology lab in Denver, CO. This lab focuses on the genetic research and scaling cultivation of rare medicinal mushrooms. Their groundbreaking discovery showed over 40 compounds with pharmacological potential in these mushrooms.

This discovery came after screening over 25 mushroom species. These 40 unique compounds have been found throughout the various species. Most of these compounds have never been reported before. Mydecine believes they could be vital to the critical effects of naturally sourced mushrooms and their beneficial effects on human health. Most compounds within a mushroom have been evolved to protect the mushroom and affect biological systems and aspects of metabolic pathways. This is a great indication of their pharmacological indications.

Mydecine is hopeful that at least some of these mushrooms will contribute to psychedelic-assisted therapy and will continue to research and formulate potential drug candidates.
