How It Works
Mushrooms have been used medicinally for centuries and their health benefits are recognized in preclinical and clinical studies. They have the ability to modulate the immune system, mainly due to the polysaccharides (beta-glucans) found in their cell walls.
The human immune system has a first line of defense (the innate immune system) and a secondary, more specific defense (the adaptive immune system).
Mushroom beta-glucans have been shown to stimulate BOTH of these systems, leading to immune cell activation and the production of messengers that positively regulate both the innate and adaptive immune systems. Beta-glucans also function as a prebiotic fiber to feed the good bacteria in your gut and help balance the intestinal microbiome.
Certified Organic, Non-GMO Mushroom Blend
Cordyceps
Cordyceps has been widely used for its anti-fatigue properties, enjoying a rich history of use to help the body build strength, endurance and stamina. Studies show that taking cordyceps supports physical endurance and improves the metabolic threshold. A natural Chinese tonic herb, cordyceps provides health benefits to the circulatory, immune, respiratory, and glandular systems. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), cordyceps is used to strengthen the kidneys, support physical endurance and stamina, maintain a healthy libido, support healthy lung function, and promote longevity. Cordyceps also helps increase levels of natural antioxidants produced in the body and boosts immune activity, increasing the activity of T-cells and B-cells which is important to the body's immune response.
Reishi
Reishi mushroom is a potent adaptogen that supports the body when under stress, boosts immune defenses, and promotes overall health and vitality. Reishi mushrooms have been used for thousands of years in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and other naturopathic practices around the world. These mushrooms are known to be rich in long-chain polysaccharides, which stimulate the activity of key immune cells, including macrophages, T-cells and natural killer cells. This tricks the body into thinking it is being invaded. And, by promoting balance between the body's immune and stress responses, reishi activates immune cells without overstimulating the immune system. Reishi mushroom also supports lung health and enhances vital energy.
Turkey Tail
Turkey tail, one of the most studied medicinal mushrooms, is known for its ability to enhance both the innate and adaptive immune responses. Turkey tail beta-glucans have been shown to improve immune function. Another active compound in turkey tail acts as a prebiotic, promoting a healthy and balanced gut microbiome that helps strengthen the gut immune response. Turkey tail mushroom also contains powerful antioxidants.
Chaga
Chaga mushroom has the ability to stimulate immune cells by means of its high content of beta-glucans and antioxidants. Chaga has a long history of use for supporting healthy liver function and immune system defenses. Chaga also appears to help promote a healthy inflammatory response. Animal studies have also revealed chaga's anti-fatigue effects.
Shiitake
Shiitake mushroom is reported to be the most popular and second largest cultivated mushroom in the world. Shiitake mushrooms have been used in TCM for thousands of years to improve health and support the cardiovascular system, liver function, immune activity, and a healthy inflammatory response. Shiitake has a rich nutritional profile, including vitamins B2, B12, D and E, as well as dietary fiber. Shiitake is also a significant source of immune-boosting polysaccharides, including beta-glucans and lentinan, which stimulate the activity of key immune cells such as macrophages. Plus, shiitake mushroom contains high amounts of the amino acid l-ergothioneine, which may help slow the cellular aging process and promote healthy longevity.
Agaricus
Agaricus, commonly known as white button mushroom, is one of the most popular edible and medicinal mushrooms in the world. Agaricus is a nutrient-rich, vegetarian-friendly source of vitamin D2, which supports calcium homeostasis and the innate immune response (first line of defense). Agaricus contains higher concentrations of vitamin D than any other mushroom species. Agaricus is also rich in immune-modulating polysaccharides, as well as prebiotic carbohydrates that support a healthy gut microbiome.

Quality
Our Reishi mushrooms come from the fertile, forested mountains and valleys of Qingyuan county in China’s Zhejiang province, which was named the best ecological environment in China in 2012. Thousands of small mushroom farms adorn Qingyuan’s lush, green hillsides, and generations of local farmers have cultivated mushrooms there since the 13th century!
Our farmers use the natural environmental conditions, ideal seasonal temperatures and local substrate to organically grow multiple mushroom species of the highest quality in the most sustainable manner possible.
