What are functional mushrooms?

Functional mushrooms are fungi that provide health benefits beyond nutritional composition. Health benefits include strengthening the immune system and cognitive health, reducing inflammation, easing stress and anxiety etc. They are often categorised into two main groups: medicinal mushrooms and adaptogenic mushrooms.

These mushrooms have been used for hundreds of years due to their medicinal properties and superfood benefits.

Are functional mushrooms psychedelic mushrooms?

No. Not at all. Functional mushrooms won't give you any type of drug-induced feeling as they don't contain psilocybin, or any psychedelic compounds

Can I combine different functional mushrooms together in the Mu range?

Yes. All Mu’s mushroom concentrates are complementary and work well in combination. We have developed a few custom-solution based around your lifestyle needs here.

When in the day should I take Mu functional mushrooms?

Mu is designed to make it easy for you to add functional mushrooms in your daily life. You can take them anytime of the day. However, there are certain functional mushrooms such as cordyceps and lion’s mane which help support energy levels, stamina and focus. It may be more appropriate to take them during the day.

What dosage should I take?

When it comes to superfood, there is no one size fits all. The amount of dosage one should take would depend on many personal factors such as health, age, weight, the body’s biochemistry etc. At Mµ, we’d recommend that you take 1-2ml of our extract tincture regularly for 2-4 weeks and observe if it improves your overall health, then adjust the amount. 

Depending on which Mµ tincture you are using, each mL (one dropper) contains the equivalent of 500mg (Reishi, Turkey Tail, Lion’s Mane)  to 1000mg (Chaga, Cordyceps) of the corresponding functional mushroom.

How long does it take for a functional mushroom supplement to work?

The amount of time it takes to work depends on many factors, including your body’s biochemistry, the amount you take, the quality and potency of the products you take, etc. Some of our customers say they feel more focused after a few days. Others say they feel the benefits such as easing their inflammation after a few weeks. 

It’s important to bear in mind that functional mushrooms are not a cure in themselves. Just like most supplements, regular use will maximise the health benefits and assist with other therapeutic regimes.
