Digital Guide · Instant Download · 41 Pages

Fungi built the soil that lets everything else grow. This guide is your way into understanding how they can support your body too.

Medicinal Mushroom Fundamentals is the complete beginner-to-confident guide to functional mushrooms — pulled straight from Monty's in-person workshop and turned into a digital resource you can revisit any time. Whether you're mushroom-curious or already building a home apothecary, this is where you start.

What's inside:

• The science made simple — mycology basics, the mushroom life cycle, and the three fungal classifications (mycorrhizal, parasitic, saprophytic)

• Bioactive compounds explained — beta-glucans, triterpenes, ergothioneine, and why they matter for your immune system

• The Big 8 Medicinal Mushrooms — Turkey Tail, Lion's Mane, Shiitake, Reshi, Cordyceps, Oyster, Chaga, and Agaricus, with researched benefits for each

• Tinctures vs. powder extracts — how they're made and how to actually use them

• 4 functional recipes — Mushroom Broth, Chaga Chai, Mushroom Jerky, and more

• Curated further reading, podcasts, and documentaries to keep learning

Who it's for:
Anyone wanting a clear, no-fluff introduction to medicinal mushrooms — home cooks, wellness-curious beginners, or anyone building their own apothecary shelf.
