Anyone whom has taken a psilocybin containing mushroom will tell you that mushrooms have strange and magical powers ranging from deep insight to madness, so it doesn't seem so far fetched that a mushroom can improve cognition. I have found Lions mane, reishi and chaga mushroom supplements taken in combination over a few days have a noticeable effect increasing my calm and keeping me focused. Apparently microdosing with psilocybe mushroom has a similar effect according to my psychonaut friends.

Or rather, if you disrupt your brain’s function on certain diverting ways you can get it to produce some wacky subjective effects. You can get some interesting patterns on your computer screen if you slowly unplug your graphics card while it’s running, too. Doesn’t mean you can make your computer smarter that way.
