This mushroom has been used by monks for centuries, finally seeing "recent" science. There's a 2010 study about how it helped elderly Japanese men and women in cognitive decline after 16 weeks. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18844328/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18844328/ The other studies are mostly in rats/mice around the nerve regeneration, immune system, and anxiety/depression.

I mostly got into it due to recovery of a covid infection that turned into an extended one while I am young and healthy. I believe it has helped me significantly, but might be too early to generalize.
