Where are your mushrooms sourced from?
Our mushrooms are sourced and imported from our trusted, reputable and long standing supplier in China. There are several reasons we, and many other world leading mushroom supplement brands have opted for mushrooms grown in China, including, growing economics of other countries and regulations. However, the most important of them all is:
- Mushrooms, particularly these exotic medical mushrooms are not easy to find naturally in the wild, due to the very specific growing environments and conditions they require, which is in China.
- China has a strong history of mushroom cultivation and medicinal use and we have worked hard to ensure we only bring in premium quality ingredients! China was the first country to begin cultivating mushrooms at large scale and is now the leading grower of mushrooms globally and produces 85% of the world’s mushrooms.
Fruiting Body vs Mycelium
This answer is simple, always opt for the Fruiting body whenever you are looking for a mushroom supplement. All of our mushrooms products are fruiting body based and dual extracted to result in a potent extract with all the beneficial compounds and active components!
Polysaccharides vs Beta Glucans
What are Polysaccharides?
Polysaccharides are long chain carbohydrates that are made up of various monosaccharides connected by glycosidic bonds.
What are Beta Glucans?
Simply put, Beta Glucans are the primary active polysaccharides in fungi. The active components which most studies are based on.
High polysaccharide content DOES NOT EQUAL good quality mushrooms.
Why? Well, the same starches the mushrooms are grown on can inflate the “polysaccharide content” and provide the user with no medical benefits! This is exactly why we indicate and measure (using the Megazyme method) the Beta Glucan content of our mushrooms!
