Experimenting With Four Sigmatic's Lion's Mane & Chaga Mushroom + Instant Coffee Mix

excuse my messy room

I love coffee.

A lot.

The taste. The smell. The extra punch in the morning/afternoon. I drink coffee pretty much every day and it makes my tastebuds and brain happy. At least for a short time, until my beloved coffee stops loving me back. It eats away at my stomach, I have to poop (yes, girls poop), and I get really jittery after a big cup.

Tea Time

I thought switching to tea would be a good solution and I tried to switch it up for a while. It was a fairly successful experiment, I like tea and sometimes I do opt for tea over coffee. However there are some downsides.

• Not as much caffeine (Less jitters, but also less juice)
• Unhappy Tastebuds (Not totally unhappy, but as previously discussed - I love coffee.
• No coffee smell.

Cut to Another Tim Ferriss Recommendation: Four Sigmatic Mushroom Coffee Mix

excuse my messy desk

In case you haven't noticed, I'm in love with Tim Ferriss and his big bald head. Sorry, @makaylafitz.
I think he's the bee's knees and have found many of his recommendations to be super helpful. (See: Journaling practices and Deviant For A Day Mentality.

Most recently I've taken up his suggestion to try Four Sigmatic's Mushroom Coffee Mix as a cognitive enhancer. Apparently, this stuff is supposed to "light you up like a Christmas tree", so of course I had to try it.

Cut to 1:00 for review of Lion's Mane Tea & Lion's Mane/Chaga/Instant Coffee Mix.

If I can get more work done in less time I'm all about it, and hopefully that's what this mushroom coffee will do for me. Today is Day 1 of Four Sigmatic's Lion's Mane & Chaga mixture and I've definitely ticked a few things off my to-do list with pretty much zero side effects from the coffee. No messed up stomach, no jitters and it tastes like coffee! I only did half to start out with today, just to see how I react. I definitely feel the juice today (I finished my cup about 25 mins ago) but we'll see how long it lasts!

Check out Four Sigmatic's Products and let me know if you've tried this coffee mixture or have experimented with other cognitive enhancers/smart drugs!
