If you know how to distinguish a pale grebe and a fly agaric from a russula, this is not a reason to call yourself a mushroom picker.
Indeed, in addition to these two “recidivists”, about 80 species of poisonous mushrooms grow on our lands. And 20 of them are especially life-threatening. For reference: according to the strength of the impact on the human body, poisonous mushrooms are divided into 3 groups.
Representatives of the first (yellow-skinned stove, tiger row) cause gastric and intestinal disorders, which manifest themselves already 1-2 hours after eating.
The second group of mushrooms strikes at the nerve centers, provoking severe vomiting, loss of consciousness, hallucinations. The red and panther fly agaric have a similar effect.
The third group includes super-aggressive fungi that affect the human liver and kidneys. Even timely medical care will not restore the disabled organs and systems, and therefore, after poisoning with such mushrooms, people most often do not survive. Killer mushrooms – pale toadstool, fetid fly agaric, orange-red cobweb, false mushrooms.
By the way, one accidentally plucked pale toadstool can ruin the entire basket, and therefore it is better to put dubious mushrooms separately from those that you are sure of.
