Research Contributions
Dr. Muszyńska's research has been instrumental in establishing mushrooms, notably Cordyceps Militaris and Lion's Mane (Hericium erinaceus), as valuable components in functional foods and medicines. Her work highlights the myriad benefits of these fungi, ranging from cognitive enhancement to immune stimulation and beyond.
The groundbreaking research on Cordyceps Militaris elucidates its bioactive components, such as cordycepin, polysaccharides, and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), showcasing its potential in immunostimulation, antiviral activity, and overall well-being. Similarly, her exploration of Lion's Mane underscores its neuroprotective and cognitive-enhancing properties, with a focus on erinacine as a key compound.
