Mushroom coffee is a growing health food trend.

Of course, pieces of mushrooms do not float in it, just mushroom powder is mixed with ground coffee, and a drink with a mild earthy taste is obtained, which, according to nutritionists, is very useful, since mushrooms have been used in medicine since ancient times as a healing agent and adaptogen. “There are thousands of mushroom species, and their purported benefits range from supporting liver and heart health to boosting energy and more,” explains allergist and immunologist MD Heather Modey. The most striking properties of medicinal mushrooms: - normalize blood sugar levels; - support for liver function and the balance of "good" cholesterol; - mushrooms are prebiotics, "food" for beneficial microflora; - antiparasitic properties (for example, in maitake mushrooms); - support for cognitive functions, including memory and concentration; Mushroom coffee is also great as a transition drink if you're looking to cut back on caffeine.
