Looking for a power boost? Don’t count on this fungus! 🍄 The fly agaric (Amanita muscaria) can be spotted on forest floors throughout the Northern Hemisphere, with a range that includes parts of North America and Europe. Its bright red cap may be alluring, but it’s also a warning. Traditionally used as an insecticide, this mushroom is considered toxic to humans. Consumption can cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and hallucinations. In rare cases, it can even induce a coma-like state.
