Ask Flora Funga Podcast anything OR Leave a Review In this episode of the Flora Funga Podcast, KK sits down with Tyler from Elden Medicinals, a holistic health practitioner, medicinal mushroom educator, and wild forager she met at MycoFest. Tyler shares his personal healing journey, including how his experience with nerve-related symptoms inspired his passion for lion’s mane mushrooms and natural medicine. Together, they dive into some of the most underrated medicinal fungi, including red-belted polypore, birch polypore, artist’s conk, and chaga, exploring their potential benefits for inflammation, brain health, immune support, and overall wellness. They also discuss herbal allies like blue vervain and ghost pipe, the advantages of wild-foraged versus cultivated mushrooms, sustainable harvesting, and the importance of reconnecting with nature. Tyler introduces his book, Wild Healing with Medicinal Mushrooms, which teaches readers about mushroom identification, foraging, traditional uses, and making their own natural remedies. This conversation is all about taking an active role in your wellness, getting curious about the medicine growing around you, and discovering the fascinating world of fungi beyond the familiar favorites!
