Autumn is a season associated with wind and dryness. Eating moisturizing foods like mushrooms is important to help counter these conditions and keep your immune system up and adaptable to the environment. Medicinal mushrooms are versatile and delicious and have a variety of medicinal functions, including antimicrobial, antifungal, detoxifying, and anti-inflammatory effects, liver protection, and may aid in stabilizing cholesterol and blood sugar levels. In addition, they are rich in antioxidants, stabilize the immune system, boost brain power, help balance hormones, and relieve digestive problems!
Some of our favorite mushrooms are Turkey Tail and Shiitake. What's your favorite mushroom?

The best way to stay healthy according to Chinese medicine, is learning about the nature of each season and living in harmony with its spirit. If we are living in harmony with the world around us, we see that nature is slowing down and contracting, preparing to rest so it is good for us to do the same. Sleeping a little longer, eating warming, nourishing foods, and moving inward – paying extra attention to our internal lives.

Longer cooking times and heartier ingredients are used in autumn to help nourish the body and support the immune system throughout the winter months. To support the digestive system, soups and stews are eaten as their long cooking times are warming and the foods are easier to digest. And because autumn is a season associated with wind and dryness, it is important to eat moisturizing yin foods like the snow-ear mushroom.

Here's an excellent recipe using snow-ear mushroom. Perfect for fall! https://www.chinesemedicineliving.com/eastern-philosophy/snow-ear-mushroom-the-natural-internal-moisturizer-for-our-bodies/

Our Immune Boost Protocol is designed to help you reclaim or maintain a robust immune system. Perfect for the seasonal trasition and as we move into winter and the typical cold and flu season.

🍃an increase in T Cells
🍃your body's return to homeostasis
