Do psilocybin mushrooms extend lifespan? New research out of Emory University found psilocybin to extend mouse lifespan by 30%, and also found psilocin to extend the lifespan of human cells by up to 57%. This new study shines light on the potential physical health benefits of magic mushrooms, including delayed senescence, increased telomere length, SIRT1 activation, and decreased oxidative stress or inflammation. Aaron with Trip Time Essentials explores this study and the impressive effect size of psilocybin in lifespan and healthspan.
