A very late reply, but I couldn't resist the urge to not reply.
Some years ago, I think I was in 7th grade or 8th, our family had these DXNstuff that were widely promoted in the middle east. Worse than the food supplements, was the actual mushroom itself. Some huge mushroom that had to be soaked in Tea. Every night my mom used to replace the tea and the whole kitchen stunk when the lid of the mushroom dish was opened. The soaked tea was taken as a food supplement and the new tea was poured in to soak over night in the mushroom.....the mushroom let out layers that were passed on to friends which was another mushroom to stink up their house. I was relieved when that fad wore out and people stopped using that thing. But moved on to the DXN tablets.
I wouldn;t say I don't believe in food supplements - Chyavanprash, Safi, Gulkhand, all that are good for health but this DXN always makes me think of that mushroom. and its stink!
