7 Functional Mushroom Coffee Benefits for Your Morning Cup

If you're a coffee connoisseur like me, chances are you've probably tried several brands of coffee that vow to provide you with the nutrients you need to have a healthy start to your day. And sure, they may do that, but they often end up being too acidic. Thankfully, there’s a solution. 

Functional mushroom coffee has provided me with the perfect balance of energy-, cognitive-, and immune-supporting nutrients. Starting my day with functional mushroom coffee has allowed me to take advantage of the adaptogenic, functional mushroom benefits without having to sacrifice taste. And with a rich, aromatic, well-rounded coffee, I appreciate the benefits of functional mushroom coffee even more.

Functional Mushroom Species and Their Perceived Benefits

Not every functional mushroom is said to offer energy-supporting benefits—some may be used to calm you or for stress-relief. It’s important to know the benefits associated with each type of functional mushroom species so you can take an informed approach to new habits for wellness.
