Sažetak
A. muscaria, a mushroom more commonly known as the red fly agaric, has been stigmatized as a poisonous mushroom in most literature and public opinion. Today there are numerous historical records and anecdotes about the positive effects of A. muscaria, primarily in reducing anxiety, pain, inflammation, and alleviating symptoms of chronic neurodegenerative conditions such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease, as well as the consequences of traumatic experiences. This paper will describe the history of its use with a special focus on the active compounds found in this mushroom, various preparation and isolation methods, and how they impact the effects of A. muscaria preparations.
