"Working with Oli has been such a positive experience. He has really supported us throughout the whole process, keeping us well informed and making everything feel straightforward. His depth of knowledge about mushrooms is incredible, and he shared it in a way that was easy to understand and genuinely helpful. We felt in very safe hands and are so grateful for all of his guidance and support"
"Working with Oli Genn Bash was an incredibly insightful and valuable experience for our team at Karma Tea Co. From the outset, Oli demonstrated deep expertise in functional mushrooms and a clear understanding of how to apply that knowledge in a commercial food and beverage context- specifically within the HORECA space, which is crucial for our brand.
The consultation notes provided were detailed, well-organized, and tailored to our needs. Overall, Oli's approach was strategic, grounded in both science and market practicality, and collaborative. He asked the right questions to tailor his recommendations to our goals.
We highly recommend Oli to any brand looking to thoughtfully and effectively integrate functional mushrooms into their product range"
"The world of functional mushrooms represents an opportunity to work towards integrating the best of traditional ancestral practices with modern scientific research, and the Fungi Consultant is positioned at the vanguard of this synthesis…. Even within the mushroom community and industry, there are many misunderstandings and disagreements about best practices, and so the advocacy and consultations from The Fungi Consultant are all the more important in advancing our collective understanding of mushroom medicine."
"I thought it might be interesting, but what I didn't expect was just how insightful, kind, and genuinely supportive Oli would be. From the moment we started, Oli was immediately approachable, and the conversation flowed easily. It wasn't just a typical consultation; he took the time to really explore my physiology and philosophy in a way that felt incredibly personal and thoughtful. I've rarely encountered a consultant who clearly knows his stuff as well as Oli does. He's read extensively, can talk you through the peer-reviewed science without a hitch, and most importantly, he listens."
"I really enjoyed my session with Oli! He was really enthusiastic, listened deeply to the areas I wanted to address with functional mushrooms, and shared his deep and complex knowledge in an accessible way. I've since ordered some Lion's Mane and Reishi capsules and am really enjoying them already!"
"Oli is very knowledgeable about the properties of a large array of mushrooms, and is skilled at assessing physical or psychological tensions. He is able to confidently suggest fungal supplements to alleviate discomfort. But obviously it is not all about treatment of symptoms; Oli pursues a holistic approach towards the maintenance and enhancement of health, and in this regard may recommend fungi or supplements towards this objective. Beyond everything else, Oli is a patient sympathetic listener, a keen observer, and a wise counsel on how to remain hale and hearty within this jagged age of modernity."
"Oli has a very relaxed and joyful personality, which puts you at ease and helps you feel more comfortable. He has good knowledge of fungi, as well as other natural supplements and adaptogens. It's clear to see his passion for this topic, and we've had some interesting conversations about mushrooms and plants. I've heard great feedback about his group workshops which I hope to attend one day!"
"It was good to have an informal talk both about micro and macrodosing as well as advice on cultivation. The practicalities of cultivation skills was covered sufficiently, as was the microdosing regime. Some information on different species was covered and some on non-regulated other mushrooms that could assist in a general health outline. All my questions were covered, and I was very grateful for the information. It was good to also exchange experiences to put things in perspective. It was good that you asked me in advance what I wanted to know - another person might be different."
"Oli was really knowledgeable about the world of functional mushrooms. I discussed what I wanted from them and what I'd already tried. He was able to explain what to look for and recommended some trusted products and shops."
