Can I Add Reishi Mushroom Powder to My Coffee?
Reishi mushroom has long been revered as the Mushroom of Immortality and used for longevity, stress support and immune system strengthening. Acting as an adaptogen, it helps the body cope with internal and external stressors by normalizing and regulating nervous systems.
Reishi mushroom tea or coffee consumption may help alleviate symptoms of chronic fatigue by strengthening immune systems against common infections such as colds and flu. Reishi has also been proven to protect against common illnesses, like colds and flus.
Lion’s mane products often incorporate additional mushroom extracts, like maitake and chaga, that provide additional health benefits to consumers. Maitake can regulate blood sugar levels while helping counteract acidity found in coffee* while traditional Chinese medicine utilizes chaga for its anti-inflammatory properties and cardiovascular benefits*.
Reishi can help improve energy and concentration, particularly for those experiencing chronic fatigue that doesn’t respond to rest or diet alone. Studies suggest reishi may stimulate natural killer cells – white blood cells known as lymphocytes which aid the body’s defenses against cancerous tumors – to fight back and destroy cancerous growths.
Reishi powder can be added to hot water, coffee, smoothies and other food and beverages as a tasty supplement. For optimal results it is recommended that consumers select non-GMO reishi mushroom powder that is free from soy, dairy, fillers, preservatives flavoring tree nuts & has undergone third party testing to ensure quality standards have been met.
