Nope, not at all! While the mushroom concentrates themselves can be earthy and bitter, we take pride in the fact that our products are meticulously formulated to address this; resulting in super smooth, flavorful beverages that consistently receive praise for great taste. No muddy flavor here.

All mushrooms serve a function, either as nourishment or as part of the ecosystem. Functional mushrooms are mushrooms with specific benefits to health. Functional mushrooms have studied benefits in the body. Most of these mushrooms work best as part of your daily routine. They contain beneficial polysaccharides, known as beta-glucans, and many contain beneficial triterpenes as well. Each functional mushroom has a slightly different set of actions in the body. In addition, they are antioxidants, adaptogens, and balance the body and the immune system. 

Mushrooms are food and have been consumed as both food and as medicine for many millennia. That being said, mushrooms are extremely safe in very high amounts, even in amounts 10 times higher than what is found in one of our servings! 

Sometimes people ask us if our mushrooms are the psychedelic (or magic) kind. They're not! But we think they're pretty magical nonetheless. Medicinal mush- rooms (sometimes called functional or adaptogenic) support overall wellness including brain function, immunity, and emotional calm and well-being. Each medicinal mushroom has a different positive effect. Most are potent antioxidants and create homeostasis, or balance, in our body, mind and immune system. Yay!
