Mushroom coffee is a trendy new way of drinking coffee that claims to help users boost energy, relax more easily, and feel less anxious. Though these promises might sound promising, there’s little scientific proof supporting them; experts warn against trying mushroom coffee if you have medical conditions that affect caffeine absorption such as kidney issues; therefore consuming mushroom coffee might not be appropriate for everyone.

Ryze mushroom coffee features an organic mushroom blend (cordyceps, lion’s mane, reishi, and shiitake), organic arabica coffee from Brazil, MCT oil powder and is available as single serve packs on its website, Amazon and select retailers – with money-back guarantees offered for customer satisfaction.

Critics of Ryze’s mushroom coffee have expressed some concerns regarding its safety and efficacy, given the mushrooms used in its blend are likely safe at the amounts found herein; however, there has yet to be sufficient research done on how effective they would be as supplements. Furthermore, its proprietary mix is difficult to compare directly with individual mushroom sources in terms of specific nutrients provided.

Ryze Nutrition Facts do not disclose the percentage of beta-glucans present in their blend – an indicator for immuno-supportive polysaccharides – while competitors such as Om Mushroom Superfood provide this data. Furthermore, it’s impossible to tell how much fiber or protein ryze Mushroom Coffee contains because the final product contains whole mushrooms that lose some nutritional value during processing.

Even though ryze’s mushroom coffee is vegan-, gluten-, and keto-friendly, it contains dairy. Milk adds creaminess while masking the flavor of mushrooms; however, adding milk may cause digestive discomfort in people with sensitive stomachs or food allergies.

At Ryze’s mushroom coffee, one potential drawback may be its 48mg caffeine per serving – this might be too much for some individuals. While its benefits outweigh this aspect of coffee-mungus drinks, too much caffeine consumption may result in jitteryness or increased anxiety for sensitive individuals.

Be mindful that mushroom coffee should not replace healthy eating, exercise and sleep practices. People may experience some form of discomfort after drinking mushrooms as FODMAPs may contribute to bloating and gas production for those suffering from IBS. Dehydration can occur when drinking too much ryze mushroom coffee, and this could be dangerous for those with medical conditions. Overall, Ryze’s claims about “supercharging your health” are overblown and do not hold up under scrutiny. Furthermore, pregnant and breastfeeding women should wait to see their healthcare provider about taking supplements such as mushroom coffee until discussing any concerns with them about possible risk to them and any recommended courses of action that might best fit.
