Turkey Tail Mushrooms
Watch the video for Turkey Tail identification assistance.
🦃 And, here is a little blurb on these medicinal, adaptogenic mushrooms 🦃
• These beautiful mushrooms grow mainly on dead hardwoods which I’ve found most prolifically in the fall.
• This medicinal mushroom is best consumed in the form of a double extraction (water & alcohol) or in an extracted powder (if someone sells you simply dried & powdered mushrooms, they are selling snake oil.. hopefully unknowingly… as your body cannot reap the medicine without some form of extraction)
• Also, fat! Take a fat source with your mushroom powders. They have fat soluble compounds, which is more than likely what you’re buying or processing them for.
• TT is known for its immune building qualities that may assist in reducing inflammation, as well as support lung health, which is why I love adding a tincture of this plant to elderberry syrup and my lung support blends
• Fatigue! Something I have a lot of experience with. Which is why I have a love for Turkey Tail as it has helped me so so much in this realm.
And remember —
Unless you are 100% sure you have correctly identified a plant or mushroom… don’t, don’t, don’t consume it.
