RYZE mushroom coffee offers an alternative to conventional black coffee by combining organic arabica coffee with adaptogenic mushrooms for an energy boost and stress relief, according to its maker. Keto-friendly and free from gluten, sugar and dairy, making it suitable for vegans or lactose intolerant individuals.

Cordyceps, Shiitake and Turkey Tail mushrooms are included in the RYZE formulation to act as adaptogens, helping balance hormone levels and support immune function. Furthermore, they’re rich in antioxidants which protect against oxidative stress and reduce inflammation.

RYZE also contains organic instant coffee and MCT oil – two key components for creating creamy beverages with earthy mushrooms. MCT oil comes from coconut or palm kernels produced using sustainable practices and is more eco-friendly than palm oil which comes from trees often cut down for its fruit.

RYZE’s MCT oil comes from coconuts grown in Thailand, where local farmers work together with RYZE to ensure its extraction does not negatively impact the environment – an impressive achievement in comparison with conventional MCT oils which often come from deforested rainforests in Indonesia or Malaysia.

Consumers looking to avoid MCT oil may prefer the stevia-sweetened variety of RYZE Mushroom Coffee. This option comes in both single-serve and two-bag formats; however, it may be significantly more costly than its unsweetened equivalent. Furthermore, pregnant and breastfeeding women should note that stevia may interfere with blood sugar levels and lead to hypoglycemia – making stevia unsuitable as a sweetener in these instances.

Although RYZE makes legitimate health claims, it remains uncertain whether its mushroom coffee actually provides its promised benefits. Some mushrooms such as cordyceps have been known to cause gastrointestinal upset in certain individuals; such symptoms could include stomachache, bloating and diarrhea.

Other mushrooms, like lion’s mane and turkey tail varieties, may offer cognitive improvement and natural energy boosting properties; however, this information has yet to be thoroughly researched in order to confirm its benefits for general consumption.

Many people opt for RYZE mushroom coffee as it offers them a convenient and time-saving way to access caffeine in the morning without needing to make coffee or grind beans themselves. But others may prefer purchasing another product for its taste or because they need greater control over how many mushrooms are being taken in, in which case options such as Four Sigmatic Think, Wunderground Organic Brainchild and Pure Shrooms Mind & Body ground coffees could provide greater variety while coming with lower price tags than RYZE.
