Gisele Bündchen says baby sleeps through the night as she regains control of her routine While many new moms struggle with sleepless nights, Gisele Bündchen revealed a parenting milestone that brought her some much-needed peace: 'Little one is sleeping through the night,' she said, beaming. That small victory has helped the 44-year-old regain a sense of structure. 'As any new mom knows, it's incredible how much sleep — or lack of it — can change everything!' she added. After stepping back from work following the birth earlier this year, Gisele shared that she's now 'back in control of [her] routine' and feeling 'more comfortable in [her] own skin.' Embracing motherhood with all three children, including Tom Brady 's kids Beyond her infant son — whose middle name is reportedly River — Bündchen continues to cherish her role as a mother to Benjamin, 15, and Vivian, 12, her children with ex-husband Tom Brady. 'Being able to be home with my kids and enjoy every moment with them is priceless,' she said, emphasizing how much joy she finds in everyday life. Whether it's spending time outdoors or simply being present, Bündchen added, 'Spending time with them is what makes me happiest.' The Brazilian-born model made her return to the spotlight this month with the Vogue France shoot, calling the experience a refreshing break from baby duties. 'Getting my hair and makeup done feels like I'm on vacation,' she joked. 'With a baby, the nights are so short that I've barely brushed my hair in the last few months!' Since her high-profile divorce from NFL legend Tom Brady in 2022, Bündchen has leaned into a quieter, more intentional life. She told fans earlier this month, 'I've been quiet over here but very busy living life. Sometimes, the most beautiful moments aren't shared — they're simply lived.'

WIRED's Guide to Mushroom Supplements (the Functional Kind)
All products featured on WIRED are independently selected by our editors. However, we may receive compensation from retailers and/or from purchases of products through these links. From ancient remedies to your Amazon cart, mushroom supplements have traveled a circuitous road. They nourish the body, enhance the mind, and occasionally poison the unlucky. Their biochemical adaptability has intrigued Eastern cultures for centuries. The West has been slow to embrace mushrooms until the 21st century, propelled in part by endorsements from celebrities like Gisele Bündchen and Gwen Stefani. Today, in a zeitgeist fixated on biohacking and self-optimization, mushrooms are now tools for functional wellness. Gone are the days of foraging and sautéing. Instead, we embrace microdosing. We're enjoying lion's mane in our adaptogenic lattes and mixing cordyceps into our post-workout smoothies, aiming to enhance our brains and upgrade our immune systems. Researchers are also exploring their potential applications, ranging from cancer therapies to supportive treatments for COVID-19. Power up with unlimited access to WIRED .

Functional mushrooms, often referred to as medicinal or adaptogenic, offer more than just nutritional value. The excitement surrounding them isn't due to recent studies; their advantages have been recognized for years. What has shifted is the way they are presented, allowing for simpler integration into contemporary lifestyles without the need for cooking. Brands like RYZE and PlantFusion have played a significant role in transforming these fungi from traditional remedies to nootropic supplements. 'One of the OG brands was Four Sigmatic,' recalls Brigitte Zeitlin, a NYC-based nutritionist who has swapped caffeine for mushroom coffee and matcha tea. 'When they first hit shelves, people were like, 'Wait, we drink mushrooms now?'.' 'If you don't like the taste or can't find quality mushrooms at your store, supplements are a great second option,' she adds. 'Some people hate swallowing pills or are already taking too many, so powders are a great alternative because they're already broken down.' For as long as humans have been getting sick, they have relied on fungi as a means of healing. Hippocrates is said to have used amadou, a spongy fungus, to reduce inflammation. Ötzi the Iceman had amadou in his supplies (probably for fire-starting), along with birch polypore, which was likely used to fight intestinal parasites. Native American cultures pressed puffball mushrooms onto wounds to halt bleeding and aid healing. Additionally, they used tiger milk mushrooms to treat asthma. East Asian traditions have long used Phellinus fungi to treat digestive issues. Ganoderma lucidum —commonly known as reishi or lingzhi—was first recorded in the Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing , the oldest Chinese pharmacopeia written over two millennia ago, where it was classified as a tonic for anti-aging and boosting qi. In modern-day China, reishi is often recommended to support immune health in patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiation. Inonotus obliquus —better known as chaga—has been a staple in traditional medicine among Indigenous communities across the world. Notably, native Siberians would grind up chaga and add it to teas, soups, and stews, believing it to ward off degenerative diseases. It was also a remedy for ulcers, liver ailments, and tuberculosis. Russian First Nations used it to slow the growth of visible tumors. Today, hunters in rural Russia still consume chaga to boost endurance on long treks. Nutritionists agree: food first. Whole mushrooms like maitake, shiitake, and lion's mane offer fiber and nutrients you won't get from supplements. Toss them into stir-fries, omelets, or soups. While supplements don't always deliver the same results, here are some of the health benefits seen with regular intake. A review of 17 cancer studies shows that consuming about 1/8 cup of mushrooms a day may lower your risk of cancer by as much as 45 percent. Fungi are packed with ergothioneine, an amino acid and antioxidant that slows cellular damage. Shiitake, oyster, maitake, and king oyster have some of the higher amounts of ergothioneine, but any variety of mushrooms is better than none. In a study in Singapore, participants who ate more than two cups of mushrooms (golden, oyster, shiitake, and white button) a week had a 50 percent lower risk of developing mild cognitive impairment. Unlike many foods that are broken down by stomach acid, the polysaccharides in fungi remain intact as they pass through the stomach. This allows them to reach the colon, where they can prompt the growth of healthy bacteria. Certain shrooms also provide vital nutrients that can support your overall well-being. Cremini and portabella are high in selenium, a mineral that produces antioxidant enzymes to prevent cell damage. Maitake mushrooms are a great source of vitamin D, and incorporate Shiitake into your diet for vitamin B6. Photograph:From nootropic lattes to adaptogenic powders, certain species have become stars in the wellness space. Here's what the research and experts have to say about the fungi dominating your feed. Chaga, a white-rot fungus that thrives on birch trees in northern climates, is recognized for its abundant antioxidants. 'If you have autoimmune issues like Hashimoto's or psoriasis, Chaga mushrooms are awesome because they reduce inflammation,' says Zeitlin. Though much of the research has been conducted in vitro or on animals, Chaga demonstrates promising antimicrobial, anti-diabetic, and anti-inflammatory effects. Cordyceps is a parasitic fungus that sprouts on larvae of insects. In wellness marketing, it's the performance mushroom and a favorite among athletes. Research suggests cordyceps may help improve stamina and post-workout recovery by boosting ATP production and oxygen efficiency in cells. But many of those claims are based on early-stage research and lab models. Marketed as brain food, lion's mane is rich in terpenes like hericenones and erinacines that boost the production of the Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), a protein vital for the maintenance and regeneration of neurons. Preliminary research also indicates it may aid in nerve regeneration, reduce the risk of cognitive decline, and alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression. It's important to note, though, since it might contain phytoestrogens that could activate estrogen-sensitive cells, those with a history of breast cancer should consult a physician before using it. Maitake (also known as hen-of-the-wood) contains beta-glucans that have been shown to activate lymphocytes, natural killer (NK) cells, and T-helper cells. Researchers are investigating its potential to help regulate blood pressure and blood sugar, particularly in individuals with metabolic issues. Zeitlin recommends maitake—and shiitake—mushrooms for those who have a history of chronic illnesses. Reishi is studied for calming effects and possible support for blood sugar and lung function, thanks to its high polysaccharide content. "Reishi mushrooms are [for] a general wellness boost," Zeitlin says. "If you're feeling stressed out, you get colds frequently, or it's spring season and your allergies are running amok, Reishi mushrooms are a supportive move." Behind their umami-rich bite is a potent wellness profile: these mushrooms deliver lentinan, an immune-boosting polysaccharide, and eritadenine, known for supporting heart health by lowering cholesterol. Shiitake also reduces inflammation markers like CRP (C-reactive protein) and IgA (Immunoglobulin A). Plus, they're packed with B vitamins to support energy, metabolism, and cardiovascular health. This colorful mushroom gets its name from its resemblance to a turkey tail's feather, and it's one of the most researched macrofungus in oncology. Turkey tail is rich in protein-bound polysaccharides (PBPs) that stimulate immune responses, particularly in the function of T-cells and NK cells. Courtesy of Four Sigmatic Like most supplements, timing your mushroom intake depends on the specific variety and what you're hoping to get out of it. Let's start with mornings. If you're caffeine-sensitive, mushrooms can be an energizing swap. Lion's mane is a go-to for AM focus (especially during workdays) for its ability to support brain health, and cordyceps is a popular pre-workout boost. 'Caffeine works by blocking the neurotransmitters that make us feel tired,' says Zeitlin, who regularly drinks mushroom coffee. 'It doesn't give us energy, it just stops the sensation of tiredness.' Chaga acts as a multitasker; it provides calmness without sedation, allowing it to enhance your morning coffee or offer an afternoon boost. Its earthy, mildly bitter taste has a coffee-like mouthfeel, contributing to its popularity. If you're looking for immune support, incorporate turkey tail in the morning to prepare your body for a day of commuting. Finally, reishi is typically consumed in the evening to help relax the body. In most cases, yes—while consuming mushrooms poses minimal risk for most people, unless you're allergic. Toss them into stir-fries, omelets, or soups. Concentrated mushroom supplements operate in murkier territory. The supplement industry is under-regulated in the U.S., and that lack of oversight extends to functional fungi. Labels may not always reflect what's inside the package. 'If you're going the supplement route, look for products with natural ingredients and some sort of third-party regulation,' says dietitian Laura Wargo. 'That gives you a clearer idea of what's actually in them.' Be sure to take them with food to avoid any gastrointestinal discomfort. 'Natural food is more bioavailable, and taking supplements with a meal can support better digestion,' Wargo says. If you can eat your mushrooms, eat your mushrooms. Supplements are great insurance, but not a replacement for a well-balanced diet. Supplements are great insurance, but not a replacement for a well-balanced diet. Think purpose over timing. Different mushrooms shine at different times, but no matter when you take them, consistency is key. Different mushrooms shine at different times, but no matter when you take them, consistency is key.

Gisele Bundchen Says Her 3-Month-Old Is Sleeping Through the Night
When you're the mom to a newborn, catnaps beat catwalks every time. In a new cover story for Vogue France, Gisele Bündchen spoke about sleep and regaining a sense of balance after giving birth to her son, whom she shares with partner Joaquim Valente, earlier this year. After months of sleepless nights, the 44-year-old supermodel says her little one is now sleeping through the night, a milestone which she says makes all the difference. 'Now that my little one sleeps through the night, I am getting control of my rhythm,' Bündchen remarked. 'Like every new mom knows, how the sleep, or the lack of sleep, can change everything.' Bündchen, who is also a mom to Benjamin and Vivian, whom she shares with her ex-husband Tom Brady, expressed appreciation for being able to be present for the early stages of her baby's life. 'I feel very grateful to be able to be at home with my kids and enjoy each moment with them. It's priceless," she continued. The model shared that her outdoor shoot with Vogue France was rewarding but not enough to compete with being a mom. 'It was amazing,' she said, 'but I was still eager to get back to my little one." Bündchen has not publicly disclosed the full moniker of her youngest child, whose middle name is River, according to People. She has also reduced her presence on social media, although she did make a point of publicly celebrating Mother's Day on the platform. At the time, she shared a glimpse of her son in a post, celebrating the day alongside a caption that reflected her mindset of embracing the early stages of her little one's life. "I've been quiet over here but very busy living the most beautiful moments aren't shared — they're simply lived," she captioned the post, which featured a selfie photo of her holding her son, with only the back of his head and onesie visible. "Lately, I've been embracing the slower rhythms, the real connections, the beauty in the lessons that come with being present," she continued. "Today, on Mother's Day, I specially miss my mom, but my heart is full. Being a mother it's been my greatest gift, a journey that humbles me, teaches me, and fills me with gratitude every single day." This article was originally published on
