Choosing The Right Mushroom Blend For You

Choosing The Right Mushroom Blend For You

One of the most common questions we get is: "Where should I start?"

You’ve heard about functional mushrooms, you know they support focus, immunity, energy and stress — but standing in front of five different blends can still feel overwhelming if you're new to it.

The truth is: every Mush Mush product supports your body in slightly different ways — but they can also be combined depending on your personal needs.
Let’s break it all down, so you can feel clear and confident about where to begin.



If You Need Focus, Productivity & Mental Clarity: Start With Mind Brew or Get Mush Done

If your brain constantly feels like it's juggling a dozen browser tabs (and you can’t remember why you walked into the kitchen), you’re not alone. Cognitive overload, ADHD-like brain fog, and digital fatigue are becoming more common for so many of us.

That’s where Mind Brew shines.

Mind Brew is your go-to if you:
— Need clean mental energy without caffeine crashes
— Struggle to sit and focus for extended periods
— Want a brain-friendly coffee alternative
— Experience afternoon slumps but want to avoid overstimulation

With a powerful blend of Lion’s Mane (for nerve growth factor and cognition), Cordyceps (for energy and endurance), and MCT oil (for stable brain fuel), this blend supports your mental clarity while keeping your nervous system calm.

For those who want an even stronger productivity stack — especially for demanding workdays or study sessions — Get Mush Done adds Chaga to the mix for antioxidant defence and long-haul mental stamina.


If Stress, Sleep or Nervous System Overload Is Your Struggle: Choose Mush Zen or Cacao Latte

Stress isn’t just about feeling anxious — it shows up as poor sleep, low mood, hormonal swings, and an inability to fully switch off.

If your mind races before bed, you’re wired but tired, or you feel that “tension in your chest” sensation, you likely need nervous system support first — before stacking productivity formulas.

Mush Zen is designed for just that.
With adaptogens like Reishi, Turkey Tail, and Chaga, this blend helps regulate cortisol rhythms, calm overactive nervous systems, support immunity and promote deeper, more restorative sleep — without sedation.

If you want to build a nightly wind-down ritual, our Cacao Latte is a customer favourite. It delivers that creamy cacao hit, while the mushrooms quietly do their work in the background to promote rest, repair, and long-term resilience.


If You Want Full-Spectrum Everyday Support: You Can’t Go Past MultiMush

If you’re not sure where to start, or want broad-spectrum support across immunity, gut health, energy, focus and stress, MultiMush gives you a full-body wellness foundation.

It contains 6 powerhouse mushrooms:
Lion’s Mane for cognition
Cordyceps for energy
Reishi for stress balance
Chaga for antioxidant protection
Turkey Tail for immune modulation
Shiitake for gut health and cardiovascular support

Think of MultiMush as your daily functional multivitamin — but in adaptogen form.

It stacks beautifully alongside any of our other blends depending on which area you want to dial up.


If You Want Hydration, Beauty & Calm Focus: Add Glow + Flow Bundle

While many people come to mushrooms for focus or immunity, others are looking for better skin hydration, mood stability, and clean energy that supports rather than stresses the body.

That’s where Glow + Flow comes in.

Flow Brew combines:
Tremella (the hydration mushroom, sometimes called “vegan hyaluronic acid”)
Lion’s Mane for calm focus
Shiitake for immune support
Reishi for stress balance
Chaga for antioxidant protection
Turkey Tail for immune modulation

Perfect added in a daily morning drink or as an afternoon pick-me-up, this bundle supports both internal hydration and brain function without overstimulating your nervous system.



Yes — You Can Combine Them

Here’s where adaptogens are different to most supplements: stacking is safe, and often more effective.

Many of our community members build their daily stack like this:

— Morning: Mind Brew or Flow Brew
— Afternoon: Get Mush Done (if needed for mental stamina)
— Evening: Mush Zen or Cacao Latte
— Daily: MultiMush as your foundation layer

Because the blends work synergistically across different systems, combining them allows you to personalise your support based on season, workload, life stress, or personal health goals.


Where To Start? Simple: Start Small. Stay Consistent.

The single most important thing is daily consistency.
Adaptogens don’t work like stimulants — they work by supporting your body’s stress systems over time. Most people begin to feel small shifts within the first 1–2 weeks, with deeper resilience building after 4–8 weeks of steady use.

That’s why so many of our customers move onto our subscription model — to stay consistent, build momentum, and lock in long-term benefits.
