The highest-grade mushroom coffee is created from premium, organic ingredients carefully sourced and assembled. Certified fair trade beans are used, without GMOs or pesticides being present; no roasting takes place either, ensuring an enjoyable lighter taste compared to regular coffee, while it also lowers calories and fat consumption making this beverage an excellent healthier alternative to its predecessors.
When searching for the ideal mushroom coffee, be sure to avoid products containing grain starch and brown rice fillers, which have an entirely different taste than actual mushrooms and contain few of their beneficial compounds. In addition, some companies use inferior ingredients like oatmeal to give their product thicker textures that taste more like mushroom than coffee.
Mushroom coffee is generally gluten-free, though you should check the label to be certain if you are sensitive. Many brands sold both in stores and online offer vegan-friendly varieties as well.
Create your own mushroom coffee at home using a blender and coffee grounds/instant coffee. Whisk in mushroom powder before pouring it directly into a cup or adding to a coffee machine for instantaneous cup. Many prefer this approach since it’s cheaper and allows them to control how many mushrooms they’re taking in at one time.
STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS

A sealed pouch prevents light from reaching its product; unopened bags of mushroom coffee powder could last between six and twelve months before opening is necessary for storage purposes.
Mushroom coffee may provide cognitive advantages, but it should not serve as a replacement for eating healthily. Instead, individuals should strive to consume whole foods that limit added sugars and low-quality dairy.
