Are medicinal mushrooms for you? While there may be plenty of great reasons to drink mushrooms — and we'll get into those shortly — anyone pregnant or with health issues should make sure to consult with their physician. In fact, many medicinal mushroom products explicitly say that pregnant or breastfeeding women should avoid them. "One of the biggest issues is that there's a lack of research, particularly on pregnant women, and you never want to be the guinea pig," say The Nutrition Twins. "Also, if you suffer from an autoimmune disease or have a bleeding or blood clotting disorder, checking with your doctor is imperative since medicinal mushrooms can sometimes worsen these conditions."
