Mushroom coffee is an emerging health trend that promises to deliver all the benefits of medicinal mushrooms directly into your cup of coffee. Packaged mixes combining mushroom extract with regular coffee are sold as ready-to-drink drinks that can quickly be mixed over hot water for easy drinking, promising immunity boosting benefits as well as reduced stress, increased energy, and focus. Some animal studies support its anti-inflammatory and immune enhancing qualities while more human trials remain lacking; also some mushrooms contain hallucinogens like Psilocybin which alter perception and may lead to other unwanted side effects or alter perception altogether.

Mushroom coffee uses medicinal mushrooms such as lion’s mane, reishi, turkey tail and chaga to provide its beneficial compounds that can then be added to regular coffee beans as a powder mix. Most mushroom coffee varieties also typically feature lower caffeine levels making it an excellent alternative for those unable to tolerate caffeine’s stimulation of their morning java cup!

Though most can enjoy mushroom coffee without issue, it is wise to be aware of potential side effects for some individuals. This includes those who do not appreciate its taste as well as those who are allergic or intolerant of certain ingredients in it. Also keep in mind that taking medication for high blood pressure or diabetes could interfere with its effects as the medicinal mushrooms contained within it could interfere with prescribed drugs.

Potential causes of mushroom coffee headaches include reactions to its ingredients or ingredients in it, or low caffeine tolerance. Reishi, for instance, can elicit an allergic response in some individuals which results in dry mouth, dizziness, rash and headache symptoms. Furthermore, some varieties of mushrooms used can become contaminated with mold which also increases headaches.
