29. Mushrooms for Dogs Part 1 with Jason Scott
Manage episode 332418159 series 3360017
Mushrooms are one of the next big trends in holistic wellness, but how can we make sure the products we’re buying are safe and effective? In this episode, Jason Scott joins us to share his expertise about all things mushrooms. He breaks down the difference between terms like mushroom extract, ground up mushroom, wild crafted mushroom, and double extractions to help pet parents figure out which products are best for them and their animals. Jason is a mycologist, ethnobotanist, and spagyricist who has spent the past decade studying traditional hermetic alchemy. He’s also the founder of Feral Fungi and curator of the website AlcheMycology, as well as having collaborated with Your Natural Dog host Angela Ardolino on her line of sustainable mushroom tinctures for dogs, MycoDog.
