Reishi mushroom has become one of the most-studied edible mushrooms, yet does not produce any psychedelic effects. Instead, it acts as an adaptogen, aiding your body to cope with stress by naturally regulating hormones and cortisol levels, helping improve sleep quality while simultaneously decreasing cortisol levels – something many use prior to stressful events or before major exams.

This blend includes extracts of reishi, cordyceps and turkey tail mushroom extracts as well as botanicals like rooibos tea, turmeric, ginger and cinnamon for optimal focus and mood support. Free of caffeine or preservatives, its powder can easily mix with hot water or milk, with additional honey or maple syrup adding additional flavor if desired. Each serving provides several grams of reishi.

Side effects

Some mushroom products can cause unpleasant side effects, including digestive discomfort or allergic reactions. If you experience any concerns before taking mushroom supplements, consult with a healthcare provider first. Mushroom supplements may interact with medications like immune-boosting drugs and anticoagulants; also avoid mixing mushrooms with stimulants as this could overstimulating your immune system leading to imbalance or an autoimmune reaction.

Reishi mushrooms (Lingzhi or Ganoderma lucidum), are fan-shaped and known by various flowery names such as “soul mushroom,” “king of mushrooms,” and “queen healer.” Renowned for their immunomodulatory properties, Reishi has been studied extensively for their ability to increase white blood cells and improve immunity function while combatting fatigue as well as helping cancer patients’ immune systems bounce back after chemotherapy and radiation treatments.

Reishi mushrooms contain beta-glucans and triterpenes, such as turkey tail and maitake, which have also been studied extensively to provide various health benefits, such as reduced inflammation and heart health support, fatigue management, depression treatment, diabetes care support and even treating obesity.

Functional mushrooms such as chaga and lion’s mane are known for promoting healthy digestion and gut microbiota, helping manage diabetes by lowering high blood sugar levels, as well as being rich in antioxidants that protect cells against free radical damage from disease-causing free radicals.

Mushrooms can be eaten either whole or made into tea. Additionally, capsules and tinctures may contain mushrooms. Making mushroom tea at home with dried mushrooms, boiling water and strainer is simple – creating different variations can easily be mixed for an enjoyable blend.

Mushroom tea should be consumed any time of day, though its best results can be achieved in the morning or afternoon. Some mushrooms such as lion’s mane and cordyceps can increase energy levels and should not be combined with other stimulating medications as doing so could result in overstimulation and cause feelings of unease and nervousness.
