Today we’re diving into the underground world of medicinal mushrooms with Olga from Mushroom Mountain. Olga grew up foraging mushrooms in the forests of Bosnia and Hercegovina, learning from her grandparents which ones to eat, which to toss, and how to live with the land instead of just on it. These days, she runs Mushroom Mountain, a powerhouse operation producing spawn for edible and medicinal varieties, plus mushroom extracts and honeys under the Mycomatrix label.

But that’s just scratching the surface. Olga also leads a wild mushroom food safety certification program that’s FDA-endorsed and accepted by seven states so far. She’s not just growing mushrooms; she’s building systems. Whether it’s teaching others to identify wild fungi or showing how mushrooms can heal soil and filter toxins, her work sits right at the intersection of ecology, food, and medicine.

In this episode, we zero in on the medicinal properties of mushrooms.   We talk about the healing properties of mushrooms and how to use them.  Top medicinals like Lion’s Mane, Reshi and Chaga.  How to use them.  How to make sure you are getting top quality from a vendor.  Growing and foraging your own mushrooms and a ton more.
