What are functional mushrooms?
Functional mushrooms are special kinds of fungi that provide health and wellness benefits beyond their nutritional value. Typical health benefits range from strengthening the body’s immunity and energy to boosting the brain’s cognitive functions and aiding recovery.
These mushrooms have been used for hundreds of years in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda to Ancient Egyptian medicine. Long regarded as herbs of longevity and immortality, they were particularly favoured by emperors, royalty and the wealthy since they were rare, expensive and difficult to source.
Non-heat dual-extraction process
Functional mushrooms contain both water-soluble and non-water-soluble molecules. To get the most from the mushrooms, we use a dual-extraction process with pure grain alcohol and deionized water so that all beneficial water-soluble compounds (such as ganoderic acid, polysaccharides like beta-glucans,) and alcohol-soluble compounds (such as triterpenoids, sterols and flavonoids) are present in the final extract. The extraction process also breaks the cell wall (chitin) to make these beneficial compounds ready for our body to absorb.

Immunity & Recovery
Turkey Tail (Trametes versicolor) is one of the best-studied functional mushrooms. It contains an impressive array of antioxidants which promote immune system health by reducing inflammation and stimulating the release of protective compounds. The unique polysaccharide in Turkey Tail, PSK and PSP, are effective in boosting immune cell production, alleviating chemotherapy symptoms and enhancing tumour infiltration.
Mµ uses Turkey Tail organically grown in the Yarra Valley, Australia.
Calm & Resilience
Chaga is typically found in very cold climates in the Northern Hemisphere such as Siberia, Canada etc. It contains one of the highest antioxidant content of any natural food. It’s adaptogenic properties promote calm and help the body to adapt to stress. Melanin gives the Chaga fungi the dark black colour and is a potent antioxidant. A dark Chaga extract indicates a high concentration of antioxidants.
Mµ uses wildcrafted Chaga mushrooms from the remote Siberian Taiga forests, far from any human settlements.
Balance & Harmony
Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum), known as the 'Mushroom of Immortality' or the 'King of Herbal Medicine' in TCM, has been a staple in Eastern medicine for centuries. Red reishi is the prized variant amongst all types. It is the most sought-after reishi due to the rich content of bio-available medicinal compounds, high antioxidant content and superior nutritional profile. It is known to support the healthy function of internal organs including the liver, lungs, and heart.
Mµ uses Red Reishi organically grown in the Yarra Valley, Australia.
Focus & Memory
Lion's mane (Hericium erinaceus) is a mushroom that grows on the trunks of dead hardwood trees such as oak. It has a long history of use in East Asian medicine and Buddhist monks are known to have used Lion’s Mane mushroom powder in teas to enhance their mindfulness and heighten their focus during meditation.
Mµ uses Lion's Mane organically grown in the Yarra Valley, Australia.
Energy & Strength
Cordyceps is a rare parasitic fungi that grows on the larvae of certain insects and caterpillars. Traditionally it has been used in Tibetan and Chinese TCM to fight fatigue, boost energy and enhance vitality. The Cordyceps CS-4 strain is the most versatile of all medicinal mushroom supplements.
Mµ uses Cordyceps organically lab-cultured in China. They are extracted in a GMP certified facility and tested independently.
