Agaricus
Extract + Powder
Raw, 30% Polysaccharides
SKU
5784
Delivers the benefits of both our extract and our gently dried full spectrum powder. In a 1:1 ratio, we combine an ultra-pure water-ethanol extract of Agaricus bisporus, containing 30% polysaccharides, with a raw, finely ground powder of its fruiting body. Sourced from the traditional region of Fujian. Pesticide-free, vegan, non-GMO, no additives. 90 capsules
- Premium combination of Agaricus bisporus extract with a finely ground powder of the mushroom's fruiting body
- Per 500mg capsule: 250mg extract (30% polysaccharides) and 250mg powder
- Valuable polysaccharides (particularly (1,3)- and (1,6)-β-d-glucans) plus the full, natural spectrum of Agaricus bisporus' nutrients
- Harvested by hand when the mushrooms reach peak levels of bioactives (July through October)
- Traditional extraction (no toxic residues, such as acetone, N-hexane or methanol): gentle process using water and food grade ethanol
- Raw powder from the fruiting body of the whole mushroom
- Gently dried at <40°C to preserve the mushroom's enzymes, then finely ground (<0.125mm) for optimal absorption of all bioactives (shell-broken)
- Top terroir: sourced from Gutian County, Fujian (600-700m above sea level), a region where medicinal mushrooms are traditionally grown
- Traditionally cultivated: no pesticides or synthetic fertilisers
- Non-GMO, 100% vegan: pure active ingredients, no additives

How are we different?
For hundreds of years, mushroom cultivators in China have been producing some of the most potent medicinal mushrooms worldwide. Traditional Chinese medicine has guided this development for over 2,000 years, with techniques being refined to such an extent that cultivated mushrooms are now in no way inferior to their wildcrafted predecessors. Our Agaricus bisporus mushrooms are sourced directly from the globally-recognised mushroom-growing region of Gutian County in Fujian. Our farming partner places a high value on natural, traditional cultivation methods which do not include the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilisers. The mushrooms are selectively harvested by hand between July and October, at their peak nutritional value.
Mushrooms are composed of the fruiting body, which typically appears above ground, and the mycelium underneath. The most important compounds in medicinal mushrooms are concentrated within the fruiting body, but due to mycelia being faster and easier to cultivate, products derived from the mycelium are common despite being of lesser value. Our mushroom powders and extracts are exclusively made from the entire fruiting body (including the stalk), preserving the valuable compounds in each mushroom.
The polysaccharides contained in medicinal mushrooms, particularly (1-3)-β-d-glucan and (1-6)-β-d-glucan, are some of their most prized ingredients. Our mushroom extracts retain these compounds through the traditional extraction which uses only water and food grade ethanol. The resulting concentrate is highly potent; a pure and wholesome extract with absolutely no toxic extraction residues or chemical release agents (such as acetone, n-hexane or methanol).
In contrast to extracts, which can lose some of their nutritional value during processing, powders contain the full spectrum of nutrients and enzymes for a particularly strong adaptogenic effect. To ensure that the nutrients of the mushroom are optimally available to the body, we finely mill the dried mushrooms to a size of less than 0.1mm, according to the "shell-broken" method. This milling process breaks open the difficult-to-digest cells of the mushroom and makes their contents directly bioavailable.
