Certain mushrooms stand out for their ability to calm inflammation gently and effectively without harsh side effects.

Joshua Quartey, Pro-boxer update
Quartey in Action
Joshua Quartey made light work of Togolese southpaw, Kokou Vinyo De Souza, in Lome on May 17, to make it three straight wins to begin the year. He sets sights on accomplishing his big career dreams. Significantly, the win puts him number one in Ghana’s national middleweight ratings, ahead of very good contenders like Henry Malm, Derrick “Show Love” Quaye, Shakul Samed, Mustapha Kamoko and Ebenezer Sowah.
The 6th round KO victory, at the Terrain du Lycee Agoe in the Togo capital. It followed two previous stoppage wins, in the same city in February and April, marking a perfect rebound from a disappointing end to 2024. That was when he caved into a first career defeat.
