Jason Peter
Founder
Sydney, Australia
Jason discovered the benefits of medicinal mushrooms after suffering from severe iatrogenic illness. For 5 years he battled constant ripped and infected skin, hair loss, inability to thermoregulate, food intolerances, insomnia, chronic fatigue, pain, depression, anxiety and UV sensitivity.
Traditional Chinese Medicine and medicinal mushrooms helped restore his health back to homeostasis, and sparked the genesis and his obsession with medicinal mushrooms, and the history and future of Eastern medicine.
