Benefits and uses of Agaricus Muscarius are

• Chorea: Agaricus is recommended for involuntary limb movements or twitching that are not only erratic in nature but are unpredictable as well. The individual may say that it almost feels as if their limbs are detached from their body.
• Nervous System Disorders: Another use for Agaricus is for degenerative neurological disorders; specifically one which causes twitching and spasms throughout the body. It may also develop into dementia or even multiple sclerosis over time. The symptoms seem to travel down the body in an almost diagonal pattern, and there is often sharp or shooting pains associated with this as well. Agaricus may work as a homeopathic remedy to help with the symptoms and even with the disorder itself.
• Chilblains: In this instance, chilblains show up with burning and itching associated with them. The skin gets red and swollen as a result of this condition.
• Parkinson’s disease: The body becomes weak and the limbs start to tremble and twitch, slowly at first but then becoming more regular and violent over time. There may be a great sensitivity to touch and there may be a great deal of anxiety, fear, and despair. Agaricus is often looked to as a homeopathic remedy to help with this disease and the symptoms that an individual may suffer from.
• Alcoholism: Agaricus often helps relieve the symptoms and side effects of alcoholism that an individual may suffer through. This may be delirium, it may be an increase in appetite, and it may be a commonly puffy and red face.
