Cold brew is naturally less acidic and could even provide additional digestive health benefits; in addition to trying this alternative option you could switch to decaf coffee with less caffeine; these options also tend to be less acidic.

Reishi mushroom coffee offers multiple health advantages. Reishi is thought to help increase energy levels, enhance cognitive functions and promote better sleep quality while simultaneously helping regulate blood sugar and triglyceride levels as well as decrease inflammation.

Many brands also incorporate herbs and natural ingredients such as inulin, which promotes good bacteria in your gut, into their products. MCT oil may also help, with research showing it does not increase cholesterol or triglycerides but may even lower them!
