Exploring the Health Benefits of Mushrooms and Microbiome Support

Mushrooms like lion's mane, turkey tail, and agarikon have shown to be beneficial for the microbiome by upregulating beneficial bacteria and down regulating harmful ones. In a study with amoxicillin patients, turkey tail mushroom mycelium helped in recovering and upregulating beneficial bacteria. Depending on the target, oral ingestion of mushroom extracts can enhance general immunity support and stave off pathogens by supporting immunity at the entry point through mucosa.
