FreshCap Mushrooms Ultimate Mushroom Complex – Coffee Mix 12:1 Fruiting Body Extract with 29% Beta-Glucans – Ayurveda Clean Energy, No Jitters, Focus & Immune Support

I was expecting a not so pleasant flavor, but it reminds me of quality cocoa. I drink it with cream and sometimes a dallop of butter. I have no jitters or upset stomach with this like coffee gives me. Delicious, and feels like it's doing something good.

This is my new favorite “healthy” thing! I usually drink it in the evening because I add some 15ml heavy cream and 2 pyure sweetener packets with a splash of vanilla extract and it reminds me of a mocha. So good. I don’t drink it daily like I should so I can’t really praise any benefits from it but I do feel I have more energy the next day and better focus.

It's good stuff. I got the smaller bag they had. It Said 15 servings, I'm pretty sure it was only about 9 servings. Lolol. I know how little 2 tea spoons are. Just go with a bigger bag.

I love both mushrooms and coffee. This is the best of both worlds! Delicious taste and it makes me feel more productive and "with it". I only wish it wasn't so expensive for the small bag you get.

Been using this for over a year and have seen results after first use. It will help you focus, makes you more alert, and also helps you go number 2! Just be careful and start lower than recommended dose. I had to build my tolerance up. Strong, pure ingredients that mixes well in hot water. The smell or taste doesn't affect my drink i mix it in.

This is the second mushroom coffee I’ve tried and the taste is not it. Adding a dash of creamer helps but I’ve had better. It for sure still provided the benefits of the mushroom coffee, but the taste is yuck.

I ordered the 15 cup size of this mushroom coffee to compare it to the K-cup mushroom coffee I’ve been drinking the past few months. Although I like the brand I have, it was still causing occasional jitters and does not list how much caffeine it contains. I chose this brand because it contained more mushroom supplements than my current coffee, and listed the amount of caffeine. The coffee reviews said it did not cause jitters. Also, it had a much higher overall rating than other mushroom coffee brands. What I failed to notice is the reviews of this product are intermixed with reviews of multiple other products sold by this company. I later realized most of the positive reviews were for a supplement pill, not the coffee. First buyer beware. I also did not see the size of the 15 cup bag. It is incredibly small. A total of 1.85 ounces. It equates to fifteen 6 ounce cups of coffee. Not a very good value for the price, but I chalked that up to my lack of attention. Unfortunately, I opened the bag to make a cup of coffee when it arrived. I otherwise would have returned it. I flipped it over to read the directions- two scoops (3.5 grams) mixed with 6-8 ounces of boiling water. I reached inside the bag to find the scoop. No scoop provided. I re-read the directions to see if they provided some measurement of the “scoop”. Is it a teaspoon? Tablespoon? No clue was revealed. I jumped onto my phone and spent the next 10 minutes on a baking measurement calculator. I calculated that the powdered coffee was about the consistency of flour, and based the conversion of 3.5 grams upon that. A teaspoon equaled about 4.2 grams. Given that I desperately wanted coffee and was 15 minutes into this impromptu science experiment, I called it good enough. I measured two teaspoons into a mug and boiled 12 ounces of water. As I continued looking at the back of the bag while waiting for my electric kettle to boil, I noticed a child safety warning to keep the product out of reach of children. Although this makes sense with caffeine, I couldn’t recall seeing similar warnings on caffeinated products. I subsequently saw the California label underneath (see photo) stating that this product may contain hazardous chemicals and carcinogens including lead! 😱 (After doing some research, I learned that lead is an ingredient found in instant coffee that “may be” safe in trace amounts. I’m personally not comfortable with “may be”.) I almost didn’t make the coffee after reading this, but I decided to try it with the knowledge I would likely end up throwing it out. The taste was subpar compared to the brewed mushroom coffee I’ve been drinking. The instant coffee taste so overwhelming that I added a 3rd packet of sweetener to mute it. Not good quality. I finished most of it, except for the thick residue it left at the bottom. It did not make me gittery or result in a crash a few hours later. I guess it was effective in that regard. Lead aside, I probably would not purchase this item again due to the poor taste, inconvenient measuring, and high price point. The only positive was the lack of jitters and maybe the potential mushroom benefits. I can’t speak to that since I will not be drinking this again. However, in my personal opinion? A food product with a warning stating it contains hazardous chemicals including lead negates other potential positive health benefits. I am disappointed these warning labels were not listed on Amazon before I decided on this purchase. I wrote this review because it’s what I would have liked to have known prior to purchasing. My hope is to help other consumers make an educated purchase decision.

I, too, have had neuropathy, not from Diabetes, but because of 4 herniated discs to my back, since the 90's. The neuropathic pain worsened to the point that I would have, what I called, "wheelchair" days, where I literally had to get around at home in a wheelchair. They've tried me on everything from antidepressants to seizure medicine; the last medication which I took was the Lyrica, which, not only did not help me but also gave me some side effects of confusion and forgetting things. I'm a nurse and I could not risk many mistakes at work with my patients. I'm also a research nurse, (by nature), though I did work as a research nurse for a number of years. I've tried just about every natural/homeopathic and home remedy that is out there but to no avail. Finally, my pain was so severe that while I was at the local nutrition store where I regularly shop, I asked if there was anything new with respect to neuropathy, and the young man asked me if I had ever heard of Lion's Mane mushrooms and how it works on nerves. I came home and researched it, then decided to try it; I ordered the Lion's Mane mushroom in powder form (they didn't have the powdered form at the nutrition store). The first 7 days, I didn't think that the pain to my feet could get any worse than I had been experiencing, but it did. I was ready to quit taking the mushroom powder, but then, I thought it through, as what I had read about how the mushrooms work to regenerate damaged nerves, so I continued to take them. By day 8, the pain subsided, but knowing what I do know about neuropathy, in that neuropathic pain can be very unpredictable, I started to chart the presence, level, and frequency of pain on my calendar. I started taking the mushroom powder, faithfully, on Feb. 11, and besides the 7 days of increased pain, I have not had any more neuropathic pain. I am back to walking, 2-5 miles with my husband. I do, also have CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome) from an injury I sustained to my left foot/leg in 2011; I lost 20% use of the peroneal nerve, for which I have a permanent spinal cord stimulator implanted, and also use Lidocaine 5% patches to that foot. I am hopeful that with continued use of the mushrooms, it can regenerate the peroneal nerve so that I will no longer have to use the AFO brace that I have to wear, 24/7. I've also, always, struggled with retaining information and with short-term memory ever since I was given a medication, Stadol many years ago. At one point, back in the '80s, I had a medical workup for MS, because of some of the symptoms I was having. My brain MRI showed that I had amyloid plaques in my brain; I then had to have yearly MRI's to monitor progression or increase in the number of amyloid plaques. Since I've been taking the mushroom powder, I have noticed that my memory is quite improved; I can retain information and I feel that I am more focused and have greater clarity. The "icing on the cake", for me, has been with respect to my bladder issues. I'm 65 years old and had been experiencing issues commonly seen with older women, like not feeling like I was completely emptying my bladder, plus, I was also experiencing some leakage when I'd wait too long to urinate. In fact, I had been seen by a Uro-Gynecologist because of my symptoms and he had scheduled me for a cystoscopy. Because my husband got sick and ended up having to have surgery (it was scheduled on the same day as my cystoscopy), I decided to wait to schedule the cystoscopy until after he recovered from his surgery. So, now that all my symptoms are, I am rethinking whether I still need to reschedule. All of that is completely gone! Gone! I will definitely continue taking the mushrooms and make them a daily part of my health regimen. I'm a missionary nurse and so I'm always sharing helpful information with others. As a person who has suffered from neuropathic pain since the '90s, I share my experience with everyone, especially those who have had neuropathic pain.
