What are psychedelics?

Psychedelics include molecules like psilocybin (commonly referred to as magic mushrooms), ayahuasca, ketamine, LSD and MDMA (commonly referred to as ecstasy). As we’ve discussed in a previous blog post, recent clinical trials have proven that psychedelics have impressive efficacy in treating a variety of illnesses including depression, anxiety, PTSD and traumatic brain injury. Though the majority of these substances are still illegal, regulations are changing quickly in the wake of such encouraging research results. And it’s this data that is driving the growth of the industry on a global scale.

Though often compared to the cannabis industry, there are several distinctions that are covered in detail within the podcast series. That being said, as the epicentre of cannabis finance, Canada’s unique position has facilitated our country’s opportunity to play a key role in the psychedelics industry.
