You may already know that mushrooms hold incredible benefits to your health, but did you know the quality of how they grow matters?
Meet Baris Sonmez, the owner and Founder of LIfeCap Farms, a mushroom farm in Jersey City. Baris started LifeCap in 2018 with a mission to connect the community through food, and give back to those in need. Baris and his team hold the HIGHEST standards for their mushrooms- with qualitative growing methods, and also intentional raw materials.
In this episode, Baris shares benefits of the top mushrooms he grows at the farm- Lion's Mane which can have incredible brain health and cognitive benefits working to repair the myelin sheath, Reishi which is great for immunity, reducing inflammation and improving sleep and relaxation, Turkey Tail which is a strong antiviral, anti-tumoral, great for digestion and can help boost your immune system, and more.
Baris offers CSA mushroom shares to those in the New Jersey area, and also offers mushroom tinctures through his website, which I have been LOVING for years now.
Mushrooms aside, this conversation was also a powerful reminder of the impact of community- and how we truly do all need each other as human beings. Such an honor to sit with this incredibly kind soul and have this conversation.
