Can Reishi Cold Brew Coffee Improve Gut Health?
Medicinal mushrooms have become the go-to superfoods for health enthusiasts due to their immune-enhancing, stress-relieving and gut health-supportive qualities. Enjoying functional mushrooms like Chaga, Cordyceps, Lion’s Mane or Turkey Tail in your coffee is a fun way to reap their benefits without experiencing caffeine withdrawal symptoms!
This mushroom coffee blend from RYZE features fair trade cold brew, coconut milk, and reishi extract – an ingredient with proven relaxing and energy boosting effects which may also serve to lower inflammation levels and ease stress levels. Reishi has long been used as an adaptogen that may alleviate inflammation as well as stress.
Other ingredients found in this elixir include l-theanine, an amino acid that’s been associated with increased mental clarity and focus. L-theanine makes an excellent addition as it can ease caffeine’s side effects by counteracting any potential jitters while helping balance energy levels throughout the day.
Reishi mushrooms found in this drink may help promote optimal immune health by providing beta-glucans that can reduce inflammation in the body while simultaneously strengthening immunity. They have even been found to aid recovery after radiation treatments for cancer patients due to their immune-enhancing benefits.
Make this nutritious treat even more protein-packed by mixing cold brewed coffee, Reishi mushroom powder, cacao powder, cinnamon, grated ginger and coconut butter into a blender until creamy – enjoy with an additional spoonful of Chia seeds to boost protein.
