Mushroom tea has transcended health food trends into an official category of medicinal and healing foods. Not only can it provide natural energy boost and immune support, it may also offer anti-inflammatory benefits. By including mushroom tea in your daily routine it may help increase energy, improve sleep quality, aid digestion, lower stress and protect against cancer and heart disease.

Nature’s Rise conducted a recent study indicating that starting your day right with mushroom tea may have positive results on overall immune function. Participants were instructed to consume one cup of mushroom tea every morning for six weeks and to maintain a journal detailing symptoms, feelings of wellbeing and energy levels as well as undergo blood tests to measure immunity at both ends of their study participation. Results of the study demonstrated that participants who consumed mushroom tea every morning experienced higher energy levels, improved focus and concentration, reduced stress and anxiety, as well as an overall boost to mood and wellbeing. Additionally, blood tests conducted showed an improvement in immune system health due to drinking mushroom tea daily.

Mushroom tea contains abundant raw nutrients and free radical-fighting antioxidants, making it a powerhouse of raw nutrients and free radical fighters. Mushrooms act as adaptogens which can modulate immune responses to stressors in everyday life and therefore are helpful for improving cognitive function, supporting nervous system health, reducing inflammation and providing relaxation benefits. They’re packed full of amino acids, fatty acids, fiber and many essential vitamins and minerals such as B complex, beta glucans and polyphenols which may all contribute.

Mushroom tea can be found at many specialty shops and natural stores as well as online retailers, with powdered options that mix directly into hot water without the consumption of the actual mushrooms themselves and can even be added directly into smoothies or coffee beverages.

Tamim Teas’ mushroom tea blends are caffeine-free, so can be enjoyed anytime throughout the day. However, certain teas provide an energetic or focus boost which makes them especially suitable for use during morning, midday, or evening consumption. Meanwhile other blends offer soothing and comforting qualities, making them suitable for pre-bedtime tea or meditation purposes.

Notably, as with other medicinal mushrooms (whether taken as capsules, tinctures or tea), mushroom tea’s benefits can only be fully appreciated when consumed on a consistent and regular basis. Therefore, making it part of your daily ritual and creating a healthy ritual around its consumption are highly recommended. Your optimal nutritional intake from mushroom teas lies in their full spectrum of nourishing properties; our mushroom teas have all been designed with this in mind so they can easily fit into everyday life.
