    They’re referencing the study, but not making any specific claims in the title other than “people are using a psychedelic alternative mushroom that’s more toxic than fentanyl.”

      It’s more toxic than fentanyl, yes… that’s the claim? I’m confused haha.

      Are you saying the headline is not about toxicity?

        When I hear “psychedelic mushroom alternative” I think 4-aco-dmt (a psilocybin analogue), or some other psychedelic that’s cheaper or easier to get than shrooms. It’s surprising to me that it’s referencing a totally different drug with totally different effects. I’d be about as surprised if someone called alcohol or weed a “psychedelic alternative”
