Mushroom supplements--Which ones are good for energy and/or cognition.

I have seen a few of you talk about them, both in pill and powder form, so can you recommend any? I recall Lion's Mane, for example, being discussed in the past, but I want to know more about it and other shrooms, especially from personal experience.

K thnx bye xoxoxox

I've used lion's mane and a couple of others. I felt like it did help with mental sharpness.

Paul Stamets has been the guy on this subject for some time.




He may have done something more recently and/or something shorter, but I remember this being a good watch.

Not for a while. I'm not very good at remembering to take pills and supplements. I just rediscovered that I had it about a week ago.

huh, I didn't associate mushrooms with that agenda. Can you explain? I was under the impression mushrooms were a thing all over the world for a long, long time.

Is that legit? You take some? I see talk of "psychedelic" when I searched for it.

So do you feel strongly there was difference between when you took it consistently and since you have not?

I noticed enough difference that I finished an entire container and ordered another.

Then I lost the habit for reasons unknown.

Agreed. Though I have been chagamaxxing the last 2-3 years by capsule form and extract for the kids.

May want to steer clear of Lions Mane if you like having a libido. If that doesn't matter to you, supplement away.

Find a cow pasture and look for the mushrooms growing out from their poop.
I probably banged your mom.

Likely very small if any "benefit" besides being a little bit healthier than not taking them, and this is over time.
Most if not all supplements, you wont "feel" anything, and if you do, its placebo

Perhaps with exception of high dose niacin, beta alanine and caffeine

for myself, Ashwaghanda has had very noticeable impact, as have Zinc, Magnesium, and B6 in addition to B3 (Niacin).
