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 turkey tail, containing 30% polysaccharides, with a raw, finely ground powder of its fruiting body. Sourced from the traditional region of Fujian. Vegan, non-GMO, no additives. 2x90 capsules

Premium combination of turkey tail 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 turkey tail's 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

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 turkey tail 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.

Turkey Tail

Trametes versicolor (turkey tail, Coriolus versicolor, Polyporus versicolor, many-zoned polypore)

Trametes versicolor, commonly known as turkey tail, is highly valued for its medicinal properties. It is known mainly in Asia and South America but is also a standard species in Europe. It has a tough, woody fruiting body and grows on the trunks of dead deciduous trees, rarely on conifers. This mushroom is an important part of nature's cycles, contributing to the decomposition process of dead wood. It helps to return nutrients to the earth, where they become available for the next organism. In Asia, the mushroom has been prepared as a tea for thousands of years. It was first mentioned in Chinese writings as early as 200 BC.

Cultivation & Processing

Our medicinal mushrooms are sourced from Gutian County in Fujian, China, a region 600-700m above sea level which is renowned for its cultivation of mushrooms. The cultivation of mushrooms is an age-old tradition in this region, as is reflected by their unparalleled quality. The pristine, fertile land and climate, protected by dense mountain forests, as well as the use of sophisticated substrates, provides an ideal environment for the mushrooms to thrive and develop exceptional levels of nutrients and a high concentration of phytochemicals. Our untreated mushrooms are cultivated without pesticides or synthetic fertilisers. They are grown to full maturity and hand-picked as their content of bioactives reaches its peak, between July and October.

In order to preserve the high concentration of beta-glucans contained in the mushrooms, their gently dried and milled fruiting bodies and stalks can be prepared as an extract. The extraction is performed according to traditional methods; it only requires water and food grade ethanol, solvents that have been a part of Chinese as well as Western medicine for centuries. This type of extraction is among the gentlest and has long been used to create plant extracts. Our ultra-pure extract is thus free from any toxic residues of chemical solvents (such as acetone, N-hexane and methanol).

Mushrooms can retain their raw quality as a result of gentle drying at temperatures below 40°C. This process preserves the delicate enzymes and potent bioactives of the mushrooms. To ensure that these are bioavailable, the dried mushrooms are then gently milled. Thanks to our use of the "shell-broken" method, the powder reaches a fineness of less than 0.1mm, which ensures that the compounds within the cells are optimally available for absorption. The resulting powder contains the full richness of enzymes, vitamins, minerals and trace elements of the whole fruiting body of the mushroom.
