A 41-year-old woman with Long-COVID experienced severe symptoms including fatigue, depression, anxiety, headaches, and brain fog that didn’t improve with traditional treatments. She decided to try psilocybin mushrooms and MDMA with guidance from a therapist. After multiple dosing sessions over several months, she reported roughly 80-90% improvement in her symptoms and was able to return to work and resume her studies. While this single case is promising, more research is needed to determine whether these psychedelics are truly safe and effective for Long-COVID.

This review examines whether germs like bacteria, fungi, and viruses might play a role in causing Alzheimer’s disease. Scientists have found that certain bacteria from the mouth and gut, fungal infections, and cold sores (herpes viruses) appear more frequently in Alzheimer’s patients and may trigger the brain changes that damage memory and thinking. While the evidence is promising, researchers still need to determine whether these infections actually cause Alzheimer’s or simply make it worse once it develops.

Researchers tested an edible mushroom called Cordyceps militaris to see if it could fight SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Using computer modeling and laboratory experiments, they found that a compound in the mushroom called cordycepin strongly attached to the virus’s spike protein and reduced viral numbers by about 50% in cell cultures. The study supports traditional uses of this mushroom and suggests it could be helpful in managing COVID-19 as the disease becomes endemic.
