Posted on June 28 2023,
If we had to choose just one supplement to benefit the collective as a whole, it would have to be medicinal mushrooms. There’s a reason they’re one of our best-selling products and most popular recommendations here at Roberts Creek Well-being!
For those new to the world of functional mushrooms, we’re so glad you’re here! Medicinal mushrooms are a powerful classification of fungi that work on a cellular level to balance various systems and return the body to a state of homeostasis. From bolstering immunity and boosting brain health, to soothing stress and promoting vitality, there’s a mushroom ally for all sorts of ailments and imbalances. And the beautiful thing about functional mushrooms is that almost anyone can benefit from their medicinal properties, no matter age, health circumstances, or wellness goals.
Today, we’re sharing a guide to Summer Support with Medicinal Mushrooms – because we could all use an extra helping hand during this busy, beautiful season.
Boost Energy For Your Favourite Summer Activities

Create Calm Amidst the Chaos
While the endless hours of sunshine, exciting travel plans, and increased social engagements can make Summer feel extra joyous, this time of year can also be over-stimulating for many.
