But how do they taste?
But how do they taste? As for the taste, Isokauppila notes that functional mushrooms are very different in taste than culinary mushrooms, like cremini or portobello. "They don't taste mushroomy, but rather they have a bitter, earthy taste, which brings up another important point: people often consider medicinal mushrooms to be a Band-Aid. You can't load your mushroom powder with sugar and white chocolate nibs and expect to see a strengthened immune system.

"Sugar causes inflammation — basically the opposite of what you want the mushrooms to do — so be careful what beverages you opt for," says Jaimie Bailey, nutritionist at NAO Wellness and an instructor at Flywheel.
