To say boiling Amanita muscaria detoxifies it is like saying boiling and dumping the water from psilocybin mushrooms detoxifies it. It's a drug, you can call it a toxin, but it's a drug.

    Boiling and changing the water removes the psychoactive compounds as well as the ones that keep you on the toilet all day if you've done it correctly (both are water-soluble). At that point it's just a culinary mushroom.

    People who are "detoxifying" it to use as a drug bake it at a low temperature which does a poor job of removing any of the toxic or psychoactive compounds so they get a bad high and end up on the toilet half a day (seriously, just order some cube spores or something if IDing good actives is too hard).

    Animata muscaria does not cause any toilet related issues, and you clearly have no idea what you're talking about here with all due respect.

    There are tens of millions of people just in the us that know better that would laugh and mock your comment here by the way.
