Joseph and his brother Chris are experts on both functional and psychedelic mushrooms and their health benefits, as well as biohacking and cognitive wellness. They've witnessed first-hand the effects that mushrooms had while they used them to treat their father, and using mushrooms yourselves. With that, we talk about Joseph and Chris's grandfather who had succumbed to Alzheimer’s disease and their father suffered from the same fate. Then they discovered they were next after genetic tests showed they had the strongest risk factor gene for Alzheimer's (ApoE4). So we talk about some of the work they have done to avoid this potential genetic outcome. 

Joseph and Chris discovered the potential of mushrooms to improve brain function and structure against aging. They created First Person to introduce more people to the power of functional mushrooms. Their products have been formulated to avoid serotonin receptors, so they may work both independently and as a highly effective complement to existing psychedelic micro-dosing protocols.
