In today's episode we go deep on the medicinal benefits of many varieties of mushrooms with Dr. Mason Bresett who is the medical advisor of Real Mushrooms. Mason also has his own naturopathic practice in Sarnia, Ontario – The Health Creation Lab. He uses medicinal mushrooms, herbal medicine, hydrotherapy, acupuncture, nutrition, and mind-body medicine in his clinic to support his patients. He provides cutting edge research and education for Real Mushrooms Practitioners – a group of health care professionals (MD’s, ND’s, DC’s, etc) using Real Mushrooms products in their practices. He actively works with medical doctors and oncologists setting up research studies using medicinal mushroom extracts.
We discussed the medicinal properties of some of the big players in the culinary and medicinal mushroom arena, including Lion's Mane, Reishi, Chanterelles. We also discussed some of the regular mushrooms you see in the grocery store, like white button and cremini.
Are you aware that Lion's Mane can enhance brain health?
Or that there are even benefits in your regular white button mushrooms?
Or that there is a reason you should buy mushrooms organic?
This and so much more is discussed in this fascinating episode.
