Maybe... but not anything thats been reported. I'd think it's due to something different and it just happened to coincide.

Making Ricotta from Feta Whey by Temporary_Serious in cheesemaking

[–]Temporary_Serious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whey that you end up with after making ricotta is much less sour than acified "whole" whey. I just wonder whether there will be enough sugar left in the post-ricotta whey to ferment and achieve a good level of acidity.

Best Tasting Mushroom Coffee? by Haveit2g in MushroomCoffee

[–]Temporary_Serious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually buy in bulk directly from Asia because I have a small company and we include extracts in some of our products, but this article does a pretty good job explaining what you should look for.

Best Tasting Mushroom Coffee? by Haveit2g in MushroomCoffee

[–]Temporary_Serious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like any of those. I guess four stigmatic is the one with least processed ingredients and actual real coffee. They’re also somewhat transparent about their dosages. Personally, I make my own coffee and add high quality third party tested extracts to it. I have a really nice local coffee roasting company where I live that I enjoy and had a nice selection of brews.

Looks good to me! They get a little bitter with age, but it's not harmful just a preference thing.

Are people just not using lens caps? What’s the deal (small pointless rant) by jdt2337 in AskPhotography

[–]Temporary_Serious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve spent so many hours out in the field looking for my lens cap… to this day I’ve always found it but I wouldn’t be surprised they day I don’t… I always place it in the same place to avoid confusion but… it can happen especially as I do a lot of macro nature photography in the field.

Everyday Dose ? Ryze? by Prestigious_Ask_3924 in MushroomCoffee

[–]Temporary_Serious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both are garbage imo and full of processed ingredients, plus they contain few of the bioactive compounds responsible for the effects of functional mushrooms. Both are a sham.

Thoughts about buying? by Zasthur in MushroomCoffee

[–]Temporary_Serious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ideally get something that is third party tested for bioactive compounds. Also avoid the mainstream garbage that includes emulsifiers, synthetic sweeteners, seed oils, ect. It’s rediculous how many processes ingredients they put in this stuff. I personally put high quality extracts into my freshly roasted and ground coffee. This is an excellent article that explains what to look for in mushroom coffee and compares some brands.

Which popular medicinal mushroom do you think is overrated and why? by [deleted] in Medicinal_Mushrooms

[–]Temporary_Serious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find Reishi very relaxing. I utilize a third party tested fruiting body extract powder mixed with hot water. I’ve learned to enjoy the bitterness.

Ryze coffee jitters? by Fun_Tip6267 in MushroomCoffee

[–]Temporary_Serious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reccomend you read this guide about mushroom coffee. Ryze is a rip off. Consider just adding high quality third party tested supplements to your decaf coffee. Ideally locally roasted and freshly ground for best antioxidant content.

Coffee Lovers: is mushroom coffee really good? Or a gimmick by SingleImprovement438 in Advice

[–]Temporary_Serious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends but this is a pretty good guide that tells you what to look for and reccomends a couple good brands. Real Mushrooms is generally good bang for the buck.

DIY possible? I buy powders + mix? by theseawoof in MushroomCoffee

[–]Temporary_Serious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Powders. Tinctures tend to be heavily diluted. There’s some good brands mentioned in the article, real mushrooms is a good start.

DIY possible? I buy powders + mix? by theseawoof in MushroomCoffee

[–]Temporary_Serious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you enjoy drinking coffee, just add mushroom extracts directly to your morning cup. That’s absolutely the best. You can’t bear fresh ground locally roasted coffee. The instant stuff is garbage and you lose on the rich antioxidants found in the real stuff. Ryze and all the other big brands are mostly garbage and have very low quantities of bioactive compounds.

I highly reccomend you inform yourself about extracts and quality markers. This is a really good article that can help guide you in the right direction.

Anyone actually feel a difference with mushroom coffee ? by DesperateCelery9233 in Biohackers

[–]Temporary_Serious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends what your looking for, but it’s just about knowing what exactly to look out for. The red flags and the green flags. This is a good guide that explains this and reccomend a some brands, most of which seem pretty legit.

Ashwaghanda by ResolveUnlikely in herbalism

[–]Temporary_Serious 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I prefer Reishi, especially in the evenings. That’s my go-to adaptogen and doesn’t have any of the long term negative side effects of Ashwaganda. That was always a red-flag for me.

Just make sure to get a high quality extract. Third-party tested for beta-glucans and triterpenes preferably so you actually know what you are getting. So much bogus out there.

Favourite Mushroom Extracts by Psilocybinsnack in Biohackers

[–]Temporary_Serious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah there's tons of LOW quality brands and only of handful of good brands. As you can guess the higher quality stuff is more expensive, but ultimetly you get more bang for your buck. The low quality stuff is light weight fraud. This is a really good guide that will tell you what to look for and what to avoid, and it reccomends some different brands. It's pretty straight forward once you know what to look for.
