FAQs

You Asked, We Answered

WHY SHOULD I BUY EXTRACTS AS OPPOSED TO OTHER POPULAR DRIED AND POWDER MUSHROOM PRODUCTS?

Mushroom cells are surrounded by a substance called chitin. The chitin in Lion's mane, reishi and chaga mushrooms surround the cells making the nutrients in the cell essentially inaccessible to the body.

When the mushrooms are extracted through a process of soaking them in ethanol alcohol and boiling them, we make the nutrients bioavailable by releasing them from the chitin.

HOW MUCH ALCOHOL IS IN THE MUSHROOM EXTRACT AND WHY IS THERE ANY AT ALL?

One serving of extract is 2ml. The amount of alcohol in that serving is about 0.6ml. This is roughly equivalent to the alcohol contained in about 1/30th of a pint of beer. This very small quantity of alcohol which has no intoxicating effects is used to extract and make soluble the beneficial compound in the mushrooms like antioxidants.

In the US, the standard alcoholic beverage contains 14g of alcohol which is over 20 times what would be consumed in a serving of our liquid mushroom extract.

The amount in our extract is the limit of what is generally considered to be safe for consumption. Still, if you have any questions or concerns regarding any aspect of using mushroom extracts or other mushroom superfood products, you should speak with your physician before use.
