From the story: The Skinny on Food.
Sometimes a health drink is so decadent and delicious that we forget it’s actually healthy. That’s the case with the Doctor’s Sinfully Delicious Reishi Drink, inspired by one of the herbal health bars in Los Angeles. Reishi mushrooms are believed to boost the immune system. The health benefits detract from the guilt we would normally feel if we drank such a rich beverage. Leave it to Doctor Eric to provide this version containing one of nature’s leading superfoods.
