How to Take Mushroom Tinctures

Mushroom tinctures are one of the simplest ways to add the power of medicinal mushrooms to your daily routine. But to get the most out of them, it helps to know the best ways to take them, how much to use, and when.

Recommended Dosage

For most people, the recommended dose is 1–3 mL (one to three full droppers) daily. You can start small and increase gradually to see how your body responds. Consistency matters more than taking large amounts all at once — mushrooms are most effective when used regularly over time.

Sublingual Use

The most effective way to take tinctures is sublingually — placing the liquid directly under your tongue, holding it for 30–60 seconds, and then swallowing. This allows the compounds to absorb quickly into your bloodstream.

Adding Tinctures to Drinks or Food

Not a fan of the taste? You can add tinctures to:

• Coffee or tea

• Smoothies

• Soups or broths

• Even water or juice

Heat doesn’t destroy the compounds, so adding them to hot drinks is perfectly fine.

Tips for Best Results

• Stay consistent — daily use yields the best long-term effects.

• Pair with food or drink if you’re sensitive to taste.

• Listen to your body — adjust your dose as needed for energy, focus, or relaxation.
