Genius Affects of Smart Shrooms

Mushrooms more closely related to humans than plants. Yep, you read that right! In fact, only a few tiny changes in our DNA structure set us apart, giving us our variations in eye, skin, and hair colour. Because of these similarities between humans and mushrooms, our health can truly benefit from the fungi kingdom.

So let's get into the good stuff! There is an abundance of medicinal mushrooms that hold many beneficial properties. Today, we'll focus on 7 different mushrooms.
