Anyone heard of this? Had a patient who is taking it and wanted to know what I thought about it. Of course I stared at him blankly. Was a great ice breaker for the appointment...

Looked it up later and it's a mushroom that supposively helps with cognition? Seems like hooplah.

BTW I'm primary care.

Cheers.

Never seen it personally, but a quick pubmed search yielded this brief review:

Like most supplements, the level of science here is pretty comical, but this should give you an idea of what they are talking about.
