Lions Mane Mushroom

Lion's mane mushroom, also known as Hericium erinaceus, is a mushroom that resembles a white, fluffy lion's mane.

Studies have shown that lion's mane may have neuroprotective properties, helping to protect the brain and nervous system from damage.

Studies have shown that Reishi may have anti-inflammatory properties, helping to reduce inflammation throughout the body. Reishi may also have immune-boosting properties, helping to strengthen the immune system and reduce the risk of illness.

In one study, participants who took Reishi supplements for 12 weeks showed significant improvements in immune function.

CHAGA Mushroom

Chaga mushroom, also known as Inonotus obliquus, is a mushroom that grows on birch trees in cold climates.

Chaga may have anti-inflammatory properties, helping to reduce inflammation throughout the body. Chaga may also have antioxidant properties, helping to protect the body from damage caused by free radicals.

In one study, participants who took Chaga supplements for eight weeks showed significant reductions in markers of inflammation.

Turkey tail may also have anti-cancer properties, helping to prevent the growth and spread of cancer cells.

Cordyceps Mushroom

Cordyceps mushroom, also known as Cordyceps sinensis, is a mushroom that grows on the larvae of insects in the Himalayan region. But now through modern processes Cordyceps can be grown in liquid cultures without the need for insects.

As a little experiment we thought we would see how AI handled the topic of medicinal mushrooms and their benefits and so we let chatCPT write the above article.

And it seems even a very clever all knowing AI robot can agree that medicinal mushrooms are amazing  and a great way to stay healthy and also to help recover from illness.

We hope that a certain film from the 80s does not become a future road map in regards to the use of AI.

 I said to ChatGPT       

“I need your clothes, your boots, and your motorcycle.” 

ChatGPT                             

"I'm sorry, but that quote is a famous line from the Terminator movie franchise, spoken by the titular character played by Arnold Schwarzenegger. 

As an AI language model, I do not have a physical body and therefore cannot provide you with any clothes, boots, or motorcycles.

My purpose is to provide information and assistance through text-based communication.

Is there anything else I can help you with?"

We are OK for now it seems!
