We don't grow our mushrooms in a lab unlike most other brands, limiting their spectrum of active compounds. Instead, our products are grown semi-wild in the mountains of China, where they natively have been growing for thousands of years in their native habitats, giving them a biodiverse environment where they can develop a full spectrum of active compounds and nutrients. Unlike most brands in Australia, because these mushrooms are not native to Australia, they have to grow them in a lab on grain or processed wood pellets, meaning they have very little active compounds due to their sterile, synthetic environment. Unfortunately, growing in a lab has other downsides, such as bleach contamination. Because we want to work with the environment, rather than against it, we go for a more sustainable approach, that provides you with a healthier product.
Absolutely not! This is a common misconception and salesy marketing tactic used by most of the big brands.Our nutritionist covers this in detail in this easy to digest blog, but here's a quick break down. Beta-glucans are in all mushrooms as they're actual purpose is to strengthen fungal cell walls (the same way cellulose does in plants). Beta-glucans have been shown in studies to have potentially help the immune system, but they do not help in other areas such as neuro-function (like lion's mane does). For example, lion's mane has 2 main compounds that create new brain cells (hint, beta-glucans don't help at all), those are:erinacines & hericenones: studied to support brain health and may stimulate Nerve Growth Factor (NGF). Yet for some reason, we see big brands use marketing tactics that say their lion's mane is standardized for 40% beta glucans. For people not in the know, that might sound great, big science words, cool. But in reality, that means their product has less erinacines & hericenones, and more of the useless beta-glucans. Standardizing is essentially synthetically raising the levels of one thing and as a biproduct, lowers the levels of the other things. Standardizing is often done by 'spiking' (adding beta-glucans from other sources such as yeast extracts, a common one), or genetic modification of the mushroom to produce more beta-glucans than other compounds. Either way, it's bad.
An extract is the sum of multiple kilograms of whole, dried mushroom, condensed down into a small amount, making it far more potent per gram/ml. Freeze dried whole mushrooms are just dried mushrooms, without an extract. So essentially, they're just far less potent than an extract. Whole mushroom companies will try trick you by saying they're 'free from fillers like alcohol or glycerin that dilutes it", when in-fact that is a total lie. These are called solvents, which help carry all the nutrients. The reality is, whole mushrooms are far less effective than extracts in potency, and are also less bioavailable as they have not broken down the chitin in the mushrooms. Chitin is the thick cell wall that prevents humans from digesting the nutrients. This is why mushrooms are cooked before eaten, to break down the chitin.
Unlike messy powders that require you to make a dedicated drink, often needing milk, our elixirs are convenient, mess free, and alcohol free. Not only that, but we're able to use much higher extraction ratios than our competitors, meaning each 1ml has more product.
Liquids also give us the added bonus of enhanced bioavailability over other forms of consumption. Simply hold our delicious liquids under your tongue for 10-15 seconds. Even if you don't want to, you'll still benefit from the enhanced bioavailability that our added grapefruit extract provides.
Convenient, more potent, mess free, more bioavailable, cheaper per serve and tastes better.
This is the ratio of whole fruiting bodies to final product extract. That means, we use 30kg of mushroom to make 1kg of extract. This is triple as much as some of our biggest competitors, meaning you can be sure you're getting all the health benefits without having to re-dose multiple times throughout the day! As for the 'dual' part, that means we use two extraction methods: water and vegetable glycerin. This ensures that you get all of the good stuff from inside the mushroom, without the bitter gross taste that alcohol elixirs and powders give.
