This is a review of recent and previous literature on properties of medicinal mushrooms against deteriorating neurodegenerative diseases.

The next portion talks about regeneration of neurons and glial cells due to mushroom supplements, causing a change in biochemistry and possibly treating NDs like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.
