Our Maitake Story
Most mushroom extracts on the market focus solely on beta-glucan content without considering the specific bioactive compounds that make each species unique. While studying Maitake’s traditional use in Japanese herbology, we discovered research showing this particular mushroom contains Proteo-β-glucan, a specialized beta-glucan variant that interacts with AMPA receptors in ways other medicinal mushrooms do not.
We create an extract that preserves these unique compounds while meeting rigorous standardization requirements. We source only certified organic whole fruiting bodies and use specialized extraction methods that maintain the integrity of both the standard beta-glucans and the unique Proteo-β-glucan fraction.
