I have been reading a lot recently about the growing trend of taking mushrooms to deal with certain health conditions and there is a lot of information available as to the benefits and power of these individual mushrooms.

I have tried Lions Mane, a mixed blend for the immune system, Turkey tail amongst others, I paid a lot of money after doing my research and realising that many cheaper versions are often packed with grain spores so the active product is quite minimal.

I really wanted Mushrooms to work for me, but I noticed I was getting really bad palpitations after taking them, only a fraction of the capsule was tolerated. At first I didn’t relate my racing heart to the mushrooms, but later did a search on Google to discover it’s a common side effect.

I have to say that at times I felt quite poorly, dizzy, almost blacking out! This was my experience, but please be careful, mushrooms are very powerful.

I still believe in their power, but sadly I don’t think they are for me!
