The Fitnessista Podcast: Healthy In Real Life


Aug 8, 2018

Don’t fear the fungi! Mushrooms are medicine, and they’ve been used to heal, nourish and nurture the body, mind and spirit for millennia. From the common button mushroom to exotic varieties like shiitake and enoki, mushrooms have the power to change our lives.

 
In this episode, I'm chatting all about mushrooms with Stepfanie Romine. She's an author and trained journalist who has been writing about health, wellness and food for a decade. 
 
She's the author of the new book Cooking With Healing Mushrooms: 150 Delicious Adaptogen-Rich Recipes that Boost Immunity, Reduce Inflammation and Promote Whole Body Health. It includes 150 recipes — like Creamy Old Bay Oyster Mushroom Scallops, Raw Adaptogenic Mushroom Fudge, No-Bake Pumpkin Chaga Cheesecake and Miso-Mushroom Stew — designed to help you integrate the curative power of mushrooms into your daily diet.
 
In this episode, you'll learn:

- What are medicinal mushrooms and how do they work?

- The most popular types of healing mushrooms and their benefits

- The top mistakes people make when using mushrooms

- How often to use them and where to buy
