I've been to functional medicine clinics in three different cities. I have a Notion doc tracking every supplement I've ever tested. Mund was supposed to be number 47 on the list of things that didn't work. It's the only one with a star next to it. I helped my son with his fifth-grade math homework last Tuesday without zoning out.

I don't trust supplement brands. I run a healthcare company. I read every label and most of them are theater. I bought Mund expecting to write a teardown of it on LinkedIn. I haven't written it. I rehearsed an entire board deck in my head on a flight last week and remembered every slide.

I'm the guy who reads the studies before he buys anything. I scrutinized the ingredient list, googled every branded compound, and decided the formula was either real or extremely well-marketed. Sixty days in, my Oura sleep score has gone from yellow to green almost every night. I stopped second-guessing my own decisions in meetings about a month ago. I still don't know which one of those things sold me.

Look, I'm a hard sell. I've been pitched gut-brain products by every wellness influencer in my feed for three years. I bought Mund because a podcast host I actually respect mentioned he was on it. I figured I'd give it 30 days, half-expecting nothing. I ordered the same coffee at the same place every morning for two weeks and only noticed on day 15 that the second-guessing had stopped.

My therapist asked me if my brain fog could be physical. I'd never considered it. Forty days into Mund I'm pretty sure it saved me three more years of weekly sessions. I write code for a living and yesterday I caught a bug I missed three times last week. The pattern recognition is back. I don't know what else to call it.

Got divorced two years ago. Blamed the brain fog on the stress of it. Started Mund six months after the divorce was final and the fog kept going. Three weeks in, it actually broke. The stress wasn't the cause. I'd been carrying around a story about myself that was wrong.

I almost asked for a refund on day 18. Nothing was happening. I'd given up. Then on day 22 I sat through a partner meeting and contributed twice without preparing in advance. I emailed the team to cancel my refund request the next morning. I'm on pouch four now.

Started Mund the same week I started Wegovy. I assumed any change was the Wegovy. I came off the Wegovy three months later because of side effects. The cognitive change stayed. So whatever Mund is doing, it's not the GLP-1 effect.

I run a venture fund. I'd been telling my partners I needed a sabbatical. Pattern recognition felt like it had gone away. Three months on Mund and I'm running twenty deals a week again, same as I did in 2019. I haven't taken the sabbatical. I don't even need it now.

Honestly, I rolled my eyes when my COO sent me the link. Another gut powder, another vague promise. I bought one pouch to shut him up and prove it didn't work. Three weeks later I sat through a 90-minute investor call and didn't reach for my notes once. I don't know what's in it. I'm on my fourth pouch

My executive coach told me my responses in our sessions had gotten quicker. He said it casually. I haven't told him I'm on this. He's the third person to comment unprompted.
