Mushroom herbal tea is one of the easiest, and most delicious, ways to incorporate functional mushrooms into your daily diet. Made by steeping hot water with mushrooms like chaga or reishi for maximum health benefits.

Chaga Mushroom

Chaga (Inonotus obliquus), one of the premier medicinal mushrooms, is enjoying an increase in popularity. This slow-growing fungus that infiltrates birch trees in temperate and boreal forests worldwide is famed for its health-promoting benefits – specifically immunity support via antioxidants and proven antiviral and antitumor activity.

Chaga contains B-complex vitamins that aid with energy metabolism and nervous system function, in addition to essential minerals like potassium, calcium and magnesium – essential components of bone health and immune function. Furthermore, its rich nutritional profile contributes to healthy digestion, stomach flora balance and overall gastrointestinal wellbeing.

This potent fungus has long been utilized as part of traditional herbal medicine due to its therapeutic and healing benefits, and today is widely utilized for wellness teas, tinctures and supplements.

Our Chaga mushroom herbal tea combines prebiotic chicory root and deep roasted ramon seeds for an invigorating and tasty blend to support immunity, increase endurance, and strengthen immunity. It features a bold earthy flavor as well as adaptogens which help adaptogens adapt to stress while strengthening immunity.

Chaga is an incredible source of natural anti-oxidants, boasting more than 40 different polyphenols (including beta-D glucans ). These anti-oxidants neutralize free radicals in your body to fight oxidative stress, cell damage and ageing. Our Chaga herbal tea also features adaptogenic ashwagandha which strengthens immunity while supporting cellular rejuvenation. Making it the ideal herbal tisane to support you during times of increased stress or fatigue.

Lion’s Mane Mushroom

Lion’s mane has long been prized as a healthful ingredient, from ancient folklore to modern chemical research. A fungus which biosynthesizes over 70 different secondary metabolites – many beneficial compounds!- that may boost immunity, enhance cognitive performance and memory retention, protect against dementia and nervous system injuries and protect against nervous system injuries while simultaneously alleviating digestive discomforts.

Lion’s Mane is a natural nootropic-like aid that enhances mental focus and concentration, reduces symptoms of depression, boosts mood and relieves mild anxiety. Furthermore, this substance also supports nerve cell health, inhibits tumor growth, protects against diabetes and oxidative stress as well as chronic pain relief while aiding skin healing processes and may help regenerate brain neurons.

Researchers discovered that Lion’s Mane mushrooms contain compounds which stimulate hippocampal neurogenesis–the formation of new brain cells. Lab experiments confirmed this finding: hippocampal neurons developed larger growth cones due to this compound, helping brain cells branch out and connect with each other more easily, essential in maintaining a healthy nervous system. Furthermore, Lion’s Mane mushrooms encourage NGF production which promotes the growth and maintenance of neurons involved with memory, cognition and learning processes.

People taking 3 grams of Lion’s Mane mushroom extract for 16 weeks improved their performance on cognitive tests more than those taking placebo, and reported improved perceptual abilities and less numbness in their hands and feet.

Studies have also demonstrated the benefits of Lion’s Mane for slowing the spread of H. pylori bacteria and strengthening of stomach mucous layer to protect against ulcers and other digestive issues, thus protecting against ulcers or other forms of digestive distress. Furthermore, Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners use it to treat conditions associated with low life energy or Qi (pronounced ‘chee”).

Lion’s Mane consumption can bring many health advantages. One way to enjoy its goodness is through herbal tea. Look for brands which use whole mushroom extract, organic grow methods, log grown methods or both for maximum effect.

Reishi Mushroom

Reishi mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum) is an adaptogenic herb known as the “Mushroom of Immortality.” It works to strengthen immunity, relieve stress and depression and promote healthy blood pressure levels by acting through its active compounds; chief among them lucidine which mimics carbs found in skin to aid with water-retaining processes while simultaneously helping keep you looking youthful and hydrated. Furthermore it contains forms of lysine essential in producing collagen to make your skin elastic and help make you younger looking!

Reishi mushrooms offer numerous health advantages, from anti-inflammatory effects and liver health to decreasing anxiety levels and helping balance moods. Furthermore, Reishi acts as an antioxidant protecting your body against damage caused by oxidation.

Reishi mushrooms have long been consumed as part of a medicinal drink; however, other methods of consumption such as capsules or tinctures provide easier dosing options. Tinctures are made by steeping Reishi in alcohol to concentrate its beneficial compounds such as polysaccharides and triterpenes; Reishi extract powders provide another simple means of consumption as they can easily be mixed into foods and drinks.

Reishi contains polysaccharides believed to contribute to its anti-cancer properties. According to several studies, Reishi extract has been shown to inhibit tumor growth and kill cancer cells in laboratory studies, potentially improving overall cancer survival while decreasing side effects associated with chemotherapy treatments.

Reishi’s multifaceted actions may prove effective against neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, as well as fatigue and inflammation related to ageing. Studies have even proven it can extend the lifespan of laboratory mice by 9-20%!

Reishi can be found growing wild throughout Asia’s forested areas, especially China, Japan and Korea. It thrives at the bases of deciduous trees like oaks and maples but may also grow elsewhere within forests. Reishi mushrooms can be harvested year round as sacred mushrooms in Chinese culture.

Astragalus Root

Astragalus root has long been used in mushroom herbal tea blends as an immune-enhancing herb. A natural antiviral, this powerful plant antioxidant also has been demonstrated to reduce oxidative stress and support healthy liver function while its saponins and polysaccharides help strengthen immunity while potentially helping prevent cardiovascular disease.

Astragalus is considered a tonic in Chinese medicine, meaning that it helps strengthen and promote overall well-being by strengthening liver, lungs and kidneys as well as strengthening immunity. Traditional Chinese Medicine recognizes astragalus as an energy booster by tonifying what’s known as protective or “wei qi,” providing energy boost and stamina enhancement benefits.

Also an adaptogen, maca is often used to balance hormones and increase resistance to stress. It may help treat chronic fatigue as well as symptoms caused by deficiency of Qi energy.

Astragalus is well-known for its antioxidant properties, but also for its ability to prevent and slow tumor growth. Studies have demonstrated how its saponins and polysaccharides can reduce inflammation while simultaneously inhibiting cancer cell proliferation and multidrug resistance in liver cancer cells.

Astragalus can be found in liquid tincture or powder form supplements. When selecting an astragalus product, look for one with high quality extract containing polysaccharides and astragalosides of high concentration; additionally test for heavy metal, pesticide residues and mycotoxin (ochratoxin A). Trustworthy premium manufacturers will be able to provide certificates of analysis on any astragalus they supply; Astragalus should generally be safe for most people although interactions may occur with certain medications and interfere with autoimmune conditions – to experience full benefits it’s best taken regularly over time.
