Colorado regulators are issuing licenses for providing psychedelic mushrooms and are planning to authorize the state’s first “healing centers” where the mushrooms can be ingested under supervision.
The mushrooms are a Schedule I drug and illegal under federal law except for clinical research.
The risk of mental health problems caused by ingesting mushrooms in a supervised clinical setting is low.
Colorado law does not allow retail sales of psilocybin, unlike cannabis, which can be sold both recreationally and medically in the state.
Colorado law allows adults 21 and older to grow, use, and share psychedelic mushrooms for personal use.
Psychedelic mushrooms have a long history in Indigenous cultures and provisions for their use in spiritual, cultural, religious ceremonies are included in Colorado law.
