Elm oyster mushroom (Hypsizygus ulmarius) polysaccharides reversed signs of aging in mice by improving memory, reducing oxidative stress, and restoring mitochondrial function. Mice given daily doses of the extract had stronger antioxidant defenses, better cognitive performance, and improved brain enzyme activity.
