The Benefits of Lion's Mane Mushrooms and Mycelium
Mycologist Paul Stamets discusses the benefits of both Lion's Mane mushrooms and mycelium, particularly in their ability to regenerate myelin sheath and improve cognitive function. He also emphasizes the importance of preserving the knowledge of experienced mycologists to avoid losing vital information in the field.

Summary
Mycelium is emerging as a reservoir of bioactive molecules that supersede the benefits of mushrooms. The mycelial form has a more active gene expression and is capable of articulating new gene expressions that make it a fertile ground for learning and adapting to new environmental changes.

Lion's Mane mushroom, a legal mushroom with a history of thousands of years, has been found to have neuroregenerative properties especially through compounds like aeronasines which are found in the mycelium. Studies have also demonstrated the effects of aeronosines on mild cognitive dysfunction.

Lion's mane mushrooms have been shown to aid in the regeneration of myelin, the conductive sheath on the axons of nerves, in mice with amyloid plaque formation, resulting in improved behavior and cognitive function.

Summary
Lion's mane mushrooms have been shown to aid in the regeneration of myelin, the conductive sheath on the axons of nerves, in mice with amyloid plaque formation, resulting in improved behavior and cognitive function. The preservation of knowledge and intellect is important to our culture, and lion's mane mushrooms may be an important tool in preventing cognitive malfunction such as Alzheimer's disease.
