In this episode of the Box N Life Podcast, it's all about mushrooms. Tony sits down with Tero Isokauppila, the founder of Four Sigmatic, who is on a mission to make medicinal mushrooms, some of the world’s most researched superfoods, more accessible to everyone. Where did Tero's obsession with mushrooms come from? Why did he decide to start Four Sigmatic and how did digital word of mouth grow the business?
Tero gets a little nerdy on Tony to discuss the dual extraction process, the science of mushrooms and why the world needs mushrooms to survive. Finally, you will be shocked to find out what type of bed Tero likes to take naps on.
