Host Defense Stamets 7 Mushroom Powder, Immune Support, 7 oz

Best mushroom product, made by reputable company that I can trust. I prefer the powder, and I add it to chocolate blueberries smoothies. It has an earthy taste, which I like. Endless health benefits! Pure ingredients!

This is part of my daily regimen, in place of a multi-vitamin. As a post-menopausal woman, I take separate D3, calcium and magnesium, but I feel this product helps keep my immune system up, and I rarely get sick!

Product is as described

It really does help me feel better and gives me a boost of energy to my day. I use it everyday in my energy drink, I take 2 tsp. For my Ehlers-Danlos symptoms and it works miracles. It can make me feel anywhere from 9-14% better which is huge for me and I cannot live without it. I now prefer my energy drink with my 1 tsp mixed in rather than it not because I like the taste. It’s kind of earthy, and it’s not that hard to mix in. I either mix it in a shaker bottle or closed lid bottle, or I use an electric frother to mix it up. I don’t find that there’s an aftertaste. I’ve been taking it for over 2 years straight and I definitely have seen the physical benefits overtime as well. My body feels less like a puppet on strings and more like I can feel my limbs connected to me (the ehlers danlos connective tissue issues). I religiously use this and probably always will.

We mix this with high quality cinnamon and other Stamets products so we can dip it for daily mushroom coffee. My wife is convinced of certain hair health benifits from daily consumption. If I'm honest, I am as well. Well being is a state that one must ponder to recognize. I'm 70 yrs old in a month and do very well as a person not beholden to modern doctors and the litany of pharmaceutical chemicals that constitute their normal treatment. Paul Stamets is the man!

Stamets is a name I trust above all others when it comes to mushroom products. This daily immune support mushroom mycelium powder is everything I’ve come to expect from the Host Defense brand with one very notable exception: they are still packaging their products in plastic containers. As a health forward shopping looking for a natural, holistic experience in the products I choose it’s seems counterintuitive to be buying products I will consume that are contributing to the microplastics contamination and the huge plastic pollution issue earth is facing. It seems so at odds with everything I feel this brand’s mission is. That being said, the product itself is fabulous. Mixes easily into my morning coffee or tea with no notable flavor change or odd texture. I’ve noticed that if I take this during summer festival season I don’t pick up viruses like I used to. (Paired with stringent handwashing of course!) I do a lot of large conventions as well and anytime I’m going to be around a large crowd I take this for a couple of weeks before, during, and after the event. Works so well for me! Almost a perfect rating, but the plastic issue really is a glaring oversight in my opinion. Still, I would absolutely recommend this product for those wanting a natural immune booster.

As I approached my 60th birthday last year I decided it was time to make some lifestyle changes. I needed to shed extra mid-life poundage and supplement my immune system and brain health (post-menopause brain fog). I committed to eating a clean, nutrient-dense diet (all the time, not just some of the time) and this product was part of those changes. I verify all of my supplements in my SuppCo app to insure a high Trustscore. This scored at the top so I added it to my monthly auto-ship. I put ½ tsp in my morning coffee, which is also the vehicle for my grass-fed collagen powder and daily creatine. It adds an earthy flavor to my coffee, but is not off-putting and dissolves reasonable well--I use a frother to mix my coffee before adding my regenerative farm half & half and a ½ tsp of honey (I tried to give up sugar entirely, but just couldn't give up the titch of honey in my morning coffee). This container lasts a month with both my husband and I using it daily. I feel considerably better than I did a year ago, but it's hard to quantify how much is attributable to this particular product as I've lost 50 lbs as well. That being said, my brain fog has improved significantly and I feel better overall. It has a pleasant smell and I don't mind the earthy flavor dimension it adds to my coffee (look at all the folks drinking mushroom coffee, it can't be all bad). It's a bit on the pricier side, but I think the quality makes it well worth the cost per month.

I trust Host Defense mushroom products. .Stamets 7 covers a lot of bases and I find this is a great blend. I add them in yogurt, smoothies and my morning cacao drink. Can’t go wrong with this great product!
