Mushroom Hot Cacao with Reishi
An exceptional alternative to night-time tea, this blend uses a high-potency 500mg dose of dual-extracted Reishi mushroom, which is traditionally used to support relaxation and stress relief. It offers a functional, low-sugar beverage option that targets the nervous system.
Quality & Materials
Features 500mg of organic Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) extract. It is sweetened with organic coconut palm sugar and stevia, keeping the glycemic impact low.
Evidence & Testing
Reishi has been shown in animal and some human trials to increase total sleep time and non-REM sleep through its interaction with the GABAergic system.
Brand Transparency
Four Sigmatic is highly transparent about their extraction methods and third-party tests every batch for heavy metals, molds, and pesticides.
Value Assessment
Priced as a premium functional beverage. While more expensive than tea bags, the cost is justified by the expensive dual-extraction process of the Reishi fruiting bodies.
Why Not Alternatives?
Unlike many 'mushroom' coffees or teas that use ground mycelium (filler), Four Sigmatic uses the fruiting body and dual-extraction (water and alcohol) to ensure the beta-glucans and triterpenes are actually bioavailable.
