Enokitake Mushroom and Its Active Component, Adenosine, Which Restores Testosterone Production in Impaired and Fatigued Mouse Models

mycolabadmin

Enokitake mushrooms and their active compound adenosine can boost testosterone production in mice experiencing fatigue and aging-related decline. The study shows that consuming adenosine-rich mushrooms may help restore testicular function and provide anti-aging benefits. This finding suggests that commonly available edible mushrooms like enokitake could be a natural functional food for managing fatigue and age-related hormone decline. However, human studies are needed to confirm these effects.
