Good stuff

I am not new to the benefits of consuming mushroom extracts whether its powdered, capsule or gummie form and have primarily ordered the ‘Grass & Co. BIOME - Organic Chaga Mushroom Powder’ since it’s rich in antioxidants and also provides anti-inflammatory support. I've been adding half a teaspoon of this mushroom extract to my morning coffee. The first thing you'll notice is the dramatic change in colour it brings – think turning your regular cup of coffee into something resembling hot chocolate. But what's really impressive is how well it blends. No lumps, just a smooth mixture. Regarding the taste - The ginger in this powder makes itself known, adding a kind of fiery zest to your drink. As for the turmeric and black pepper, they seem to take a backseat, as I couldn't really pinpoint their flavours. And a big plus – there's no lingering unpleasant aftertaste. As for the benefits, it might be a little early to speak on the anti-inflammatory effects – these things often need a bit of time, say around 30 days, to really show their impact. But in the meantime, if you're considering dipping your toes into the world of mushroom supplements, I'd definitely recommend doing a bit of homework on Chaga mushrooms. They're quite the topic in the wellness community, and it's always good to be informed about what you're adding to your diet.

First off, the combination sounds like a superhero team-up for your insides – Chaga Mushroom, Turmeric, and Ginger, all known for their anti-inflammatory prowess. It's like they've joined forces to combat the nemesis of inflammation, with me reaping the benefits without having to don a cape. As a dad chasing around a small human who believes sleep is for the weak, and as someone who occasionally attempts to relive his youth on the football pitch, my body often feels like it's been through a tumble dryer – on the high setting. That's where this powdered concoction comes into play. Mixing it into my morning cuppa or a smoothie gives me that gentle kick-start, not unlike the mild shock of stepping on a forgotten Lego piece, but far more pleasant and with lasting benefits throughout the day. Pros: Taste: Surprisingly palatable. Mixing it with a smoothie or even just hot water and a bit of honey creates a comforting beverage, not unlike a warm hug from the inside. Ease of Use: As simple as adding a spoonful to your drink of choice. No complicated rituals or brewing required. Health Benefits: The anti-inflammatory properties are a game-changer. Well, not literally a "game-changer" (I promised I wouldn't use that term), but let's just say I feel less like an old creaky door and more like a well-oiled machine. Cons: Availability: It can be a bit of a treasure hunt to find it in stock, presumably because it's as popular as the last roast potato at Sunday dinner. Cost: Quality comes at a price, and this blend is no exception. However, considering it's like getting three health heroes in one, I'd argue it's worth the investment. Final Thoughts: Organic Chaga Mushroom Powder with Turmeric & Ginger is not just a mouthful to say; it's a cupful of goodness. It's become a staple in my attempt to keep up with life's demands, providing a much-needed boost without the need for a midday crash. Whether it's placebo or genuine magic, I'm not entirely sure, but I'm too busy enjoying the benefits to really question it. If you're in the market for a natural boost with a side of tasty, this might just be your next best friend.

I've had Chaga Mushroom Powder before, which I liked the flavour of, but back then I had to use a cafetiere to make the drink. This one is a high strength, finely ground instant powder that you can make into a drink or sprinkle onto food. This is full of health promoting ingredients and historically, I know I see benefits with this combination of ingredients. I initially tried this as a drink on it's own, you use less than half a teaspoon a day (just 2g) but this really didn't taste very nice to me with just hot water. I think it was the addition of the tumeric that I wasn't keen on having this way. This morning I put it in my morning coffee and that actually improved the taste of my coffee so that will be the way forward for me. I would also be happy adding it into my dinners, it would just mix right in there with other seasonings as it's just a small amount you take each day. They also warn you on the packaging not to exceed the recommended serving of 2g per day which is a really small amount so this 100g pack should last 50 days. So for me this is a good, health promoting way to add these ingredients into my diet. It has no additives, mycelium, grains or any fillers. They use their own organic mushrooms, it's GMO free, Gluten free and vegan friendly and it's finely ground into a fast absorbing powder which is simple and convenient to use. They don't mention the word organic on the packaging but the company claims to grown their own mushrooms on natural substrate. I am aware that some products can be organic but it's a costly process getting certified so perhaps this is the case here. I've checked out their website and it comes across as a very open and ethical company to me which I would be happy to purchase from in the future.
