What a Long, Strange Trip it has Been with Robert Johnson
Robert Sikes
•
If you're like me, you don't know much about mushrooms other than
the strains we're all familiar with. Robert Johnson is a mushroom
aficionado and has been since he was a teenager. He founded the
premium mushroom product line Mycroboost as well as Custom Capsule
Consultants, where he is CEO. His work in the cannabinoid, health,
and supplement space since 2008 has given him deep expertise around
cannabinoids, hemp, mushrooms, supplements, product development,
business development, market demands, and consumer trends.
