Description
June 12, 2021
Hallucinogenic magic mushrooms were thought to have healing properties for centuries. It extended right up to the 1960s, when their use was banned during the so-called war on drugs. Today, they're going through a research renaissance, and scientists are revealing their potential to help people with mental health disorders, like anxiety, depression and PTSD. Robin Gill reports for The New Reality.
