    The New Science of Psychedelics for Brain Health 🧠✨ For thousands of years, humans have turned to psychedelic plants and fungi—from psilocybin mushrooms to peyote cactus—for healing, ritual, and transformation. But now, cutting-edge neuroscience is uncovering how these substances may do more than alter consciousness—they may rewire the brain and reduce inflammation in ways that could benefit mental health, cognition, and even longevity.
