Edible products containing microdoses of psychedelic mushrooms have been linked to more than 100 illnesses across at least 28 states and possibly two deaths, according to the Food and Drug Administration.
Prophet Premium Blends in Santa Ana recalled their Diamond Shruumz products in June after reports of illness continued to grow and the California Department of Public Health put them on notice.
The company said their cones, chocolate bars, and gummies contained elevated levels of muscimol, which could potentially make people sick with symptoms such as seizures, agitation, loss of consciousness, and confusion.
After testing some of the products, the FDA found that not all of the company’s products contained muscimol. However, testing revealed that the chocolate bars contained Acetylpsilocin and Psilocin, hallucinogenic prescription drugs that were not listed on the product label.
The FDA says while there is research on these substances' effects when taken individually, not much is known about ingesting them together.
The FDA is asking the public to report any companies that may still be selling Diamond Shruumz products.
What you can do:
- Do not eat Diamond Shruumz chocolate bars, cones or gummies. If you find any of the products in your home, make sure to throw them away.
- Speak to children and teenagers about the danger of the product.
- If you or someone you know consumes any of the recalled products and develops symptoms, call the Poison Hotline at (800) 222-1222.
- If you find the product is available for sale online or in person, call the California Department of Public Health complaint hotline at (800) 495-3232, or submit an electronic report. You can also report to the FDA.
