Mushrooms and evidence-based science
Mushroom World
What is actually known about mushrooms: which species are edible and which are dangerous, what human clinical trials have shown, and what to know before buying supplements.
Every entry is built on peer-reviewed work and links to the primary source. No miracle promises — only what the data supports.

About the project
Mushroom World is an independent reference about fungi. We collect and adapt open material, base entries on peer-reviewed publications, and present them in a readable form. Articles and research reviews are currently available in Russian; the species catalog and the seasonal calendar are being translated.
