Why Black Walnut Is Used Traditionally
Black walnut hull has a long history of use in herbal traditions for:

It is typically used as part of short-term or cyclical protocols, rather than as a daily, long-term supplement.

Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ
Do You Use Fruit Body or Mycelium?
All of our medical mushroom tinctures are made entirely from sustainably wild-foraged or organically homegrown mushroom fruit bodies, ensuring the highest potency. We use NO filler products such as mycelium mass.
What Extraction Methods Do You Use?
We use the traditional Taoist method of double and triple extraction ensuring the highest potency. This process unlocks the maximum amount of bio-available medicine compared to any other technique, i.e., powders, capsules, etc. Our double extraction process is as follows:
- We use low temperature dehydration of respectfully foraged or homegrown mushroom fruit bodies.
- We then make an extract consisting of four ounces of dried mushrooms to one half gallon pure alcohol for two or more weeks.
- Next, we cold press and separate the mushroom fruit from the alcohol.
- Then we add the mushroom fruit body to two-and-a-half gallons of living spring water that is boiled until half a gallon of liquid remains, resulting in a decoction (concentrated essence). The decoction is then cooled.
- The mushroom fruit is then separated from the liquid by cold press.
- Finally, the alcohol extract is combined with the water decoction for full spectrum benefits.
Our triple extraction process for Chaga includes all of the above with an additional low temperature (160° F) water decoction for 8 hours.
There is approximately 100 mg of full spectrum mushroom medicine in 3 droppers of extract.
What's the Alcohol Content and Type?
To maximize the bio-availability of our medicines, we maintain approximately 45% alcohol by volume. Alcohol is the essential agent for mushroom extraction and is needed to unlock the benefits of polysaccharides, polyphenols, carotenoids, and peptides, etc. We believe that the Taoists created alcohol for this very process.
We use 190 proof organic, gluten free corn alcohol.

from 1472 reviewsWonderful product. Three drops under the tongue and pain is gone. This the only place I will purchase my ghost pipe from. Thanks!
I've been enjoying the mushroom coffee alternative for about a year, so decided to try the cocoa and also give it as a gift. I personally am not fond of strong drinks, so two tablespoons, instead of four, was just right for a serving for me of the cocoa. I added some coconut milk. Delicious!
My husband I have this on auto-buy monthly because we love it. My husband says he sleeps so much better using it before bed. I use it for memory and all around health.
Delicious!!
Dave started using a special recipe recommended by the owners for his lung cancer 5 plus years ago. According to scans, all resolved. Docs aren't interested but we are so lucky. Thank you to RWH!!! Tell everyone we meet. Even people are rest areas!
enjoying a new daily ritual
Love this and love the ingredients. It gives my coffee a warm, nutty aroma that I look forward to sipping every morning. Been using now for almost a year, and it’s a regular part of my morning coffee routine.
Love Muddy Waterz hot with a dash of coconut milk or cold over ice. Delicious and nutritious!
Go to every am best part of my morning

I absolutely love Muddy Waters! The flavor is rich and it's delightful! Scratches my coffee itch while avoiding the negative side effects of caffeine. I begin my day with a boost.
Awesome stuff
Goddess care has made me a healthy and stable human! It’sa huge part of my hormonal mood and menstrual care and has made such a significant difference! I had major issues with my period and with PMS postpartum and now I feel normal and balanced. I never go without it now.
I bought a bag of this last summer at the Flagstaff farmer's market (while visiting!) and I love it! It has become a lovely staple alongside tea and coffee in my house. It tastes great and I can enjoy any time of day since there's no caffeine. Has a nice nutty flavor that goes great with milk and a smidge of maple syrup. I now have a subscription.
My daughter bought me a bag at the Farmers Market and I love that I can add to my beverage (coffee) and love the hint of cardamom. It is now part of my morning ritual. I am now on the reorder program and got my first pkg. today, just in time because I used my last scoop yesterday!!
Mushrooms: The Foundation of Life
For millennia, mushrooms have been used as staple sources of food and medicine. Recently, with modern scientific breakthroughs, we now know just how important these ancient traditions truly are. Mushrooms just may be the key ingredients to long term, full-body health.
Mushrooms are adaptogens. They must be taken regularly over a long period of time in order to receive any noticeable benefits. It is also important to incorporate a dose of soluble vitamin C with your mushroom medicines. This helps the absorption of polysaccharides, increasing bioavailability. The easiest and most potent way to ingest medicinal mushrooms is in traditional double extracted form. The double extraction is necessary because it unlocks both the water-soluble (polysaccharides) and alcohol soluble (terpenoids and phenolics) components, making a full-spectrum medicine. It is also easy to make medicinal teas simply from chunked dried mushrooms. Cooking gourmet mushrooms in food can prove to be very beneficial as well. We invite you to start enjoying mushrooms today and everyday for a lifetime of good health.
