Description

The one and only resource on using adaptogenic mushrooms to boost immunity and promote whole body health the natural way. Adaptogenic mushrooms are one of today's buzziest superfoods, known for their ability to restore skin's youthful glow, increase energy levels, reduce brain fog, keep your hormone levels in check, and so much more. In Healing Mushrooms, you’ll learn about the ten most powerful mushrooms you can add to your daily diet to maximize your health gains. Though some of these mushrooms, like Tremella, Cordyceps, and Reishi will sound exotic, they're all easy to source online in extract form and easier to use in recipes. Even more familiar mushrooms, like Shiitake, Oyster, and Enoki, are full of seriously healing potential--you just have to know how to use them. Packed with practical information, fun illustrations, and 50 mushroom-boosted recipes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner (and even dessert!), Healing Mushrooms unlocks the vast potential of this often-overlooked superfood category and will be the go-to resource for adding mushrooms to your health and wellness regimen.

  • I Love Healing 'Shrooms!
Format: Paperback
Healing Mushrooms begins with a little background about the life of the author Tero Isokauppila; How he grew up in a country and with a family in which gathering mushrooms was the norm. The first half of the book is comprised of scientific information such as chemical compounds found within mushrooms (i.e. Beta-glucans, terpenoids), a mushroom’s anatomy, and a detailed profile for each of the ten mushrooms he has selected as fundamental. The rest of the book is a wonderful compilation of facts, tips and unique recipes that I am so excited to being working through! I have been consuming Four Sigmatic products since 2014 but I have mostly done so by tea, chia gel, broth, or smoothie-- what a treat to have so many creative and healthful recipes available! This book comes with a shopping/sourcing guide which directs you to the most reputable companies and also teaches you what to look for when trying to determine the highest quality products. Tero’s vision to offer these mushrooms in a more recognizable and user-friendly form really is brilliant. Prior to finding Four Sigmatic, I had only heard of using mushrooms for culinary purposes, as a psychedelic, and of course all of the worst-case scenario foraging incidents! By making these healing mushrooms available in a dual-extracted powder form and providing loads of information (educating to dispel mycophobia!), videos, enthusiasm and passion…they have made me a fun-gal! I would truly recommend this book to anyone…and will be purchasing it for many friends in the future as gifts! It provides a lot of key information in an easy to read and enjoyable format. Be sure to also check out Mushroom Academy on their website to learn even more! ... show more

  • Straight-forward, useful guide and recipe book
Format: Kindle
"[Human] beings and mushrooms share roughly 85 percent of the same ribosomal RNA and almost 50 percent of the same DNA." - Healing Mushrooms If that doesn't make you want to find out more about mushrooms and their medicinal properties, I don't know what will. My mind is still blown by that little factoid. This book is a quick read, since it is mainly a recipe book--but don't skip the introductory chapters, as they teach you all about the kingdom of mushrooms (yep, shrooms have their own kingdom) and list profiles of what I guess you could call the mushroom super stars. The recipes are sorted by medicinal goal--regulate blood sugar, gut health, hormonal balance etc.--offer a variety of options for both savory and sweet cravings, and address various dietary preferences and needs. Note that all recipes are meatless, though, but that doesn't mean you can't add chicken to that 'shroom salad or bacon bits to those maitake muffins, for example. I also really appreciate the shopping guide that explains what to look out for when buying mushrooms, be it fresh or dried, to make sure you are able to identify quality products. The only criticism I have is that the all photographs were listed at the end. It might be just the case for the Kindle edition, but I'd like it better if the photos were placed alongside their recipes. All in all, a great book to start your journey into the (healing) world of mushrooms! ... show more

  • Informative, fun book!
Format: Paperback
I first heard about Four Sigmatic products through Sid Garza-Hillman and kind of wrote it off as just another wacky trend. Later on, I heard Tero talk about how he got interested in mushrooms and their healing effects on the Rich Roll podcast. I was intrigued so I decided to find out more by getting this book. It's really opened my eyes to the mushroom world, so to speak. Not only does he cover the basic knowledge about mushrooms and their medicinal properties, but the information about the extraction process and how to ensure you are getting a quality product is vital in my opinion. I haven't yet tried any of the recipes in the book, but I definitely plan to! I like that they incorporated recipes so you can see how exactly to incorporate mushrooms into your normal diet. Overall, a fun book to read by a fun guy (had to throw that in there) and a resource I know I'll come back to repeatedly. ... show more

  • Healing Mushrooms was a fun and informative read
Format: Paperback
Healing Mushrooms was a fun and informative read! The style and language is easy to follow. From start to finish Tero provides interesting information that is easy to swallow and get a grasp on. The health benefits of mushrooms are incredible and so much fun to learn about. I have been drinking Four Sigmatic for the last month and I'm obsessed. This book will be my basic reference guide, until I memorize everything on my own :) The only reason I took one star away is because some of the ingredients in the book are expensive and seem hard to find, not what your average person would have in their kitchen. I am excited to slowly plough through them all! ... show more

  • Great book!
Format: Kindle
As a Four Sigmatic fan and user of the products, I was excited to read Tero's book. I found the writing easy, quite simple to understand for a newbie in the mushroom world and much of the information on the 10 mushrooms reviewed is a great resource to get started, and a confirmation of what I've learned through the websites Academy. There is a brief part in this book regarding resourcing your mushrooms that I think is worth mentioning and that is the dual extraction process and the benefits from that as well as what is required to make a capsule a capsule and that means additives. This differentiation between a powdered mix and a capsule is really good to know when you go shopping for your mushroom supplements. I think this book is intended for people who have never used mushrooms medicinally and for those who would like to expand their knowledge and recipe collection cooking mushrooms. Looking forward to trying the many mushroom recipes. ... show more
