Functional Mushrooms 101 With SuperFeast Founder Mason Taylor
My mushroom 101 with SuperFeast founder Mason Taylor, from Jing in your coffee to reishi before bed.
Ashwagandha is an ancient Ayurvedic adaptogen used for over 6,000 years to revitalise and rejuvenate. Ashwagandha benefits include supporting healthy sleep patterns, hormonal function and a healthy stress response whilst strengthening the body and bringing calm. We have ashwagandha tablets, ashwagandha powder and KSM-66 ashwagandha, a premium water-extracted form from Northern India. We also have adaptogenic herb blends combining ginkgo and bacopa, traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine with tyrosine and B6 to support brain health and cognitive performance. Adaptogens are also part of our longevity range for their role in healthy ageing.
We have medicinal mushrooms including wild-sourced, single-origin extracts following traditional Dì Dào principles from pristine mountain regions. Lion's mane is traditionally used to support cognitive performance, memory, focus and nervous system health. Reishi mushroom, known as the Mushroom of Immortality, is traditionally used to support calm, sleep and immunity. We also have turkey tail mushrooms, chaga and Mason's Mushrooms blends combining multiple species, with dual-extracted formulas rich in beta-glucans and triterpenes. Functional mushroom lattes feature lion's mane, reishi, maitake and shiitake with vitamin B3, available in delicious salted caramel blends enjoyed hot or cold.
