Defense Blend

A preclinical study found that a blend of mycelial extracts from meshima (Phellinus linteus), reishi (Ganoderma lucidum), and chaga (Inonotus obliquus) significantly protected brain cells from glutamate-induced toxicity and inflammation. The mix, called GMK, reduced stress in brain cells, lowered inflammation, and boosted brain-supporting compounds, helping protect against aging and damage.
