Abstract

Amanita muscaria (L.) Lam. (1783), gljiva poznatija pod imenom crvena muhara stigmatizirana je kao (smrtonosno) otrovna gljiva u većini literature i javnom mišljenju. Danas postoje brojni povijesni zapisi i anegdote o pozitivnim efektima vrste A. muscaria, uglavnom u području smanjenja anksioznosti, bolova, upala i ublažavanju kroničnih neurodegenerativnih poteškoća poput Parkinsonove i Alzheimerove bolesti te posljedica traumatskih iskustava. Ovim radom prikazat će se povijest upotrebe navedene vrste, a poseban fokus biti će na aktivnim spojevima pronađenim u ovoj gljivi, različitim metodama pripreme i učincima pripravaka od vrste A. muscaria.

Abstract (english)

Amanita muscaria (L.) Lam. (1783), the mushroom better known as the red fly agaric, was usually stigmatized in literature and public opinion as a (deadly) poisonous mushroom. Today, there are numerous historical records and anecdotes of the beneficial effects of A. muscaria species, especially in the area of alleviating anxiety, pain, inflammation, and mitigating chronic neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, as well as the effects of traumatic experiences. This paper will present the history of the use of the aforementioned species, with particular emphasis on the active ingredients found in this mushroom, the various methods of preparation, and the effects of preparations from the A. muscaria species.
