6 Superstar Mushrooms

Brain training: 

Mushrooms are very unique in the sense that they are neither plants nor animals - they are their own unique Fungi kingdom with a special mix of bioactive compounds.

It is their beta-glucan activity and active compounds that give mushrooms their healing and high-performance properties.

How to pick your medicinal mushrooms - the correct way:

  • beta-glucan activity is important
  • choose steam activated for the bioavailability of beneficial compounds

 

The Fungi kingdom has a myriad of species available, each unique in its own way. However, there are six highly specialised mushrooms used across several traditional medicinal systems traced back centuries.
