Trivia time! 

Which superfood boasts more potassium than a banana and more antioxidants than blueberry OR açai?  

I’ll give you a hint: It’s been hailed as the “King of medicinal fungi”

I’m talking about CHAGA – one of the most nutritionally dense, immune-supporting foods in the world!

And on this episode, my guest and I talk ALL about it. 

I’m joined by Brandon Mizrahie, the CEO and founder of RENUDE – the “stripped-down” beverage company and makers of the delicious chagaccino

Brandon struggled for years with troublesome health issues and little to NO answers. 

It wasn’t until he turned to this ancient fungus that he began living his best, healthiest life  – and discovered his passion for helping others do the same.

On this episode, Brandon and I explain what chaga could do for YOUR health – and why the chagaccino should become your new go-to drink. 

On this episode you’ll learn:

  • All about adaptogens – including how they support both your physical AND mental health, and some of the BEST sources on the planet (8:00)
  • What sets Chaga apart from other fungi and adaptogens – and the incredible effects it can have on YOUR health (4:00) 
  • What it means to “hit the brakes” on your immune system – and how it can can actually benefit YOUR health (19:00)
  • How this “beauty nutrient” can support the health of your skin, hair and eyes (could it even delay the growth of grey hair?) (22:00) 
  • The most DELICIOUS way to get the health benefits of chaga (it’s easy, convenient and super versatile) (25:00) 
  • Cacao vs. cocoa (there IS a difference) – and why one is typically a much healthier option (29:00)
  • How YOU can make a “healthy frappuccino” right from home – in just a few easy steps (it’s less expensive than going to a coffee shop and JUST as delicious) (33:00) 
  • How olympic athletes used THIS to boost their energy levels by 25% – and how you can too (It’s totally legal and completely safe) (34:30)
