Warm Immunity Elixer

Craving a warm, soothing start to your day? Try this medicinal drink in place of your daily

cup of coffee or tea. Coffee can be dehydrating and taxing on the detox organs, especially during a cleanse. By replacing coffee beans with medicinal mushrooms you are flooding your system with immunity-activating beta-glucans. These specific mushrooms work synergistically with  coconut oil to provide a boost of clean energy. Make this part of your morning routine and give your body an advantage as we head into cold and flu season.
