Paul Kempisty is an acupuncturist, Chinese medicine practitioner, and a wealth of knowledge on the magical world of fungi. They have incredible healing properties, and it’s great to see them pop up--like mushrooms, one might say-- in more products everywhere. We get into some of the buzzwords (hello, adaptogens and nootropics), and gain more insight into relying on roots, plants, and herbs for healing purposes. He breaks down some of the science behind them and tells us what is undebatable when it comes to the benefits of mushrooms.
Paul Kempisty talks about...
-What the hell are adaptogens and what they do
-Whether you can take too much of ashwagandha or other adaptogens
-Why the robustness of mushrooms benefits us
-Nootropics and how those affect us
-How adaptogen coffee doesn’t taste like mushrooms
-Understanding the source of your mushroom product
-How some molds are harmful/deadly and some can be beneficial
-The “stoned ape” theory
