Description
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Tero Isokauppila. Tero is the founder of Four Sigmatic, a nature-centric Finnish-American company specializing in functional mushrooms, superfoods, and adaptogens. Born in Finland to an agronomist father and nursing teacher mother, Tero was the 13th generation to grow up on the Isokauppila farm. There, he foraged for mushrooms and other wild foods while learning about nature at an early age. In this, he frequently channeled his middle name Tapio, the Finnish god of forests, animals, and mystics. Following his early education on the farm, Tero later completed a Degree in Chemistry and a Certificate in Plant-Based Nutrition from Cornell University. In 2006, he won a Finnish innovation award for discovering that the sought-after Japanese culinary matsutake mushrooms also grow in Finland. In 2012, he left a corporate position to start Four Sigmatic. Tero is a reputable source on superfoods, an expert on natural health, and has been a featured speaker, for example, at Summit Series, Wanderlust, Further Future, Culinary Nutrition Conference, and WME-IMG. In this episode, Tero Isokauppila speaks about how adaptogenic mushrooms improve human performance. Depending on your health goals, Tero breaks down how long you may need to try adaptogenic mushrooms to reap the health benefits. Whether you like it or not, we are all consuming fungi in some form or another. Tero reveals the best way to introduce plants into your diet, especially if you have gut issues. Tune in as we chat about the benefits of mushrooms on our sleep, mood, and stress levels.

[05:00] Adaptogenic Mushrooms and Improving Human Performance Soviet researchers were trying to find ways to improve human performance the next day without any letdown. After many studies, they found compounds that improve performance and recovery without the letdown in natural fungi, plants, berries, and roots. To be an adaptogen, they need to be safe and non-toxic. Also, adaptogens have to restore balance in the body. [11:40] How Long Will It Take To Reap Benefits From Adaptogenic Mushrooms? How long do you need to use something to reap benefits? Usually, people will say thirty days or something along those lines. In reality, it depends on the desired benefits in your body. If you have gut and autoimmune issues, you may be on a journey for a few years. You cannot heal gut issues within a month. Skin will heal itself in about thirty days. Energy production is instantaneous - if you want to increase energy, that can be done quickly. [15:50] What To Know About The Effects of Theobromine and Magnesium Theobromine is one of the main compounds in real chocolate or cacao. Theobromine is a sister compound to caffeine. Magnesium is one of the minerals that are critical for our body function. Many people think of supplements and diet as upper and downers; however, many things can be both simultaneously. For instance, green tea can have caffeine and a calming effect. Theobromine and magnesium are great for balanced energy and balanced performance. [18:35] Whether You Like It Or Not, You Are Consuming Fungi In Some Form There is no world where you’re not consuming fungi. Fu
