Hi All,
I'm going to try something new! I was recently introduced to the research about Lion's Mane Mushrooms that indicate that ingesting them regularly can help improve cognitive functioning - especially in people dealing with mild impairments. There is even some thinking that these little guys can help your body to regenerate the myelin sheath of axons and promote neuroplasticity. I've been improving significantly over the last year with the various hormone treatment I am getting. But I'm still not close enough to 100% yet and I'm hopeful that these little mushrooms will help give me an extra edge. THESE ARE NOT HALLUCINOGENIC MUSHROOMS!! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/paul-s...b_1725583.html http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23510212 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18844328 http://www.superfoods-for-superhealt...ions-mane.html http://www.mushroom-appreciation.com/lions-mane.html Mark has posted this about the subject before: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12675022 |

This is where I got mine from: http://www.mushroomscience.com/produ...mane-mushroom/
But there are several different manufacturer's that sell them. You just have to pay attention to who's making them and how they're doing it... because apparently some methods get better results than others. |

BTW cubensis mushrooms give me super focus, fluid and clear mind, plus increased creativity and energy, neurogenesis It happens probably because brain gets hyperconnected and calms down brain. I never tried lions mane mushrooms. Is there evidence that they do work?

Cubes, magic muschrooms, shrooms or cubensis mushrooms are illegal in most of the world. Only legal in Brazil, Netherlands and Austria.
Psychedelics are generally considered a risk for people who have brain injuries.

Why psychedelics are bad for people with TBI? Psilocybin has very interesting properties such as neurogenesis and creating hyperconnected brain what could be useful with TBI. |
