Lion's Mane Mushroom

The scientific name for Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) kind of sounds like “Hercules”, and with good reason. Mentally speaking, it doesn’t get better than Lion’s Mane. This smart mushroom may look like the flowing mane of a lion, but it tastes like a warm cuppa mental clarity. It’s a brain health superfood that helps support memory, dial in your focus, improve creativity and mood. Just brilliant.

Chaga Mushroom

Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) isn’t just fun to say out loud, it’s also been used to support immune function for centuries. Often referred to as the “king of medicinal mushrooms”, Chaga has been used extensively by Traditional Healers in North America, Europe and Asia for centuries. Chaga contains a complex array of bioactive compounds with significant antioxidant activities.

Reishi Mushroom

Hear ye, hear ye – Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) believed by traditional herbalists to help the body cope with everyday physical and mental stress by restoring balance and immunity in a natural and healthy way. No wonder Reishi is called the king of mushrooms.

Cordyceps Mushroom

Cordyceps are famous among endurance athletes all around the world. Studies show that it supports energy and endurance. The power comes from the extracted fruiting body of Cordyceps mushroom (Cordyceps militaris). In nature, it grows on caterpillars, but we love our multi-legged furry friends so we don’t use that kind. Ours are 100% vegan and cruelty-free.

Maitaki Mushroom

Maitake means “dancing mushroom” in Japanese, and it will surely have you jumping for joy. Maitake (Grifola frondosa) has been studied for its many benefits, including its immune function and its ability to support blood sugar. Dance just as freely as the Maitake in Vital Mushrooms is extracted from fruiting bodies free from fillers and carriers.

These functional mushrooms aren’t just delicious in culinary masterpieces. Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) have been used for hundreds of years to support wellbeing and keep your skin glowing. To keep you well, ours are only the organic, extracted fruiting bodies, free from fillers and carriers.

What are functional mushrooms good for?

The use of mushrooms is an exciting area of natural health, offering significant benefit, supported by a long history of traditional use, and increasing scientific evidence.

Functional mushrooms contain beta glucans which are known to support immune system. Humans do not produce beta glucans and, therefore, functional mushrooms can play an important role in supporting daily health and wellness.

What are the beneficial active compounds in mushrooms?

The primary active compounds in functional mushrooms include beta glucans, polysaccharides, and polyphenols. They also contain vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and proteins. Mushroom-specific compounds also include triterpenes (from Reishi), cordycepin (from cordyceps) and neurotrophic factors (from Lion’s Mane) all of which are known to contribute to overall health and wellness.

Why is Vital Mushrooms made from 100% “fruiting body”?

The cap and stem that you pick and identify as ‘a mushroom’ is just the fruiting body which contains all the nutritional value and active ingredients. On the other hand, the mycelium represents the vegetative part of the fungi which contains simple starches and gluten. Think of it like this: a mushroom is akin to an apple and mycelium is akin to an apple tree.

Vital Mushrooms is made from extracts of fruiting bodies only, that’s why the product is of a higher quality, offering a concentrated form of glyconutrients and other constituents.

It’s worth mentioning that for centuries our ancestors have exclusively used mushroom fruit bodies on their journey of wellbeing.

Is Vital Mushrooms tested for heavy metals?

Yes. Every extract in our blend is subject to in-house and 3rd party testing for heavy metals and other contaminants and meet and exceed industry standards.
