Join this webinar to learn how medicinal mushrooms can be useful in all areas of brain health and emotional wellbeing. Medical Herbalist and Naturopath, Sophie Barrett will look at the key medicinal mushrooms which can be used safely in clinical practice to effectively support adults and children with cognitive health challenges due to their neuroregenerative and neuroprotective effects.

Learn how different strains of medicinal mushrooms are powerful naturopathic tools in supporting stress, focus and concentration and how they can also play a vital role in supporting brain and cognitive function. With cases of anxiety, depression and ADHD on the rise, modulating the gut-brain axis as well as the hormonal and nervous systems is crucial for the prevention and therapeutic management of mental health challenges.

Medicinal mushrooms have been valued as food and health supplements for millennia and now there is much scientific evidence and clinical studies to support their use as both prebiotics and as adaptogens which can modulate the nervous and endocrine systems.
