Ep. 43: Ian Mccall - Psychedelics in Sports
Manage episode 282942175 series 2797461
Ian Mccall is a former UFC featherweight contender who now in retirement is a leading advocate for the use of psilocybin mushrooms and other psychedelics in medical form for athletes. He was key in facilitating a study between the UFC and Johns Hopkins University with an eye toward seeing if the drugs can be helpful for fighters dealing with brain issues, and what hopefully is the very beginning for all major sports organizations to start exploring these alternative treatments for what is one of the most detrimental aspects to these sports, brain injury.
I really enjoyed this conversation and I hope it helps illuminate to those who are unaware or misinformed about the powers of these amazing fungi, outside of their recreational uses.
