I sit down with Julie Anne Lee, DCH RCSHom, from Adored Beast Apothecary, to discuss the booming mushroom industry and the ins and outs of their medicinal benefits.

We touch on the complexity of mushrooms and how they are often compartmentalized in the industry. The conversation also delves into the concept of communication in nature and how it relates to fungi.

Dr. Julie shares their experience owning a medicinal mushroom company called Microbiome and their passion for environmental sustainability.

We round out part 1 of this two-part episode by exploring the gut microbiome and the relationship between mushrooms and bacteria.

This is a fascinating conversation on the power of mushrooms.
