With growing interest in natural nootropics, adaptogens, and holistic wellness, medicinal mushrooms are gaining recognition as one of the most potent functional foods for cognitive longevity. Backed by scientific research and centuries of traditional wisdom, this book unveils the powerful neuroprotective, adaptogenic, and immune-boosting properties of fungi like Lion?s Mane, Reishi, Cordyceps, and Chaga. This book delves deep into the bioactive compounds found in medicinal mushrooms such as beta-glucans, hericenones, erinacines, and triterpenes and explains how they work to protect neurons, reduce inflammation, enhance nerve regeneration, and balance stress hormones. Apart from mechanistic studies, the book also highlights easy and practical ways to incorporate mushrooms into daily routine?through supplements, teas, tinctures, and delicious recipes. Thus this book aims to be a practical guide to unlock the full potential of fungi for mind and body. By bridging the gap between ancient healing traditions and modern neuroscience, this book serves as an essential reading for neuroscientists, nutritionists, health-conscious individuals, biohackers, and anyone eager to explore nature?s most powerful brain-boosting superfoods. 410 0$aNutritional Neurosciences,$x2730-6720 606 $aNervous system$xDiseases 606 $aCognitive neuroscience 606 $aNeuropharmacology 606 $aNutrition 606 $aFood science 606 $aLearning$xPhysiological aspects 606 $aMemory$xPhysiological aspects 606 $aNeurological Disorders 606 $aCognitive Neuroscience 606 $aNeuropharmacology 606 $aNutrition 606 $aFood Science 606 $aLearning and Memory 615 0$aNervous system$xDiseases. 615 0$aCognitive neuroscience. 615 0$aNeuropharmacology. 615 0$aNutrition. 615 0$aFood science. 615 0$aLearning$xPhysiological aspects. 615 0$aMemory$xPhysiological aspects. 615 14$aNeurological Disorders. 615 24$aCognitive Neuroscience. 615 24$aNeuropharmacology. 615 24$aNutrition. 615 24$aFood Science. 615 24$aLearning and Memory. 676 $a616.8 700 $aMoradikor$b Nasrollah$01855839 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9911039312803321 996 $aMedicinal Mushrooms$94454222 997 $aUNINA
