Ashley On - Mushrooms for Brain Health with Chris & Joe Claussen from First Person

Ashley On - Mushrooms for Brain Health with Chris & Joe Claussen from First Person

Brothers Chris and Joe Claussen’s journey into cognitive health and wellness began 25 years ago when they witnessed their grandfather succumb to Alzheimer’s disease. Eventually, their father suffered from the same fate, and they discovered they were next after genetic tests showed they had the strongest risk factor gene for Alzheimer's.

Prior to their father's passing, Chris and Joe experimented by giving their father mushrooms and for the first time in over a year, their father miraculously got up on his own, hugged their mother, and said “Honey, thank you for taking such good care of me.”  Chris and Joe were so amazed by this that they created First Person to introduce more people to the power of functional mushrooms for brain health.
