How are we different?

For over 2,000 years, the traditions of Chinese medicine have been applied to the cultivation of these mushrooms for a host of medicinal uses. Mushroom cultivation in China has furthermore been so refined that farmed variants are in no way inferior to their wild-grown counterparts. Our mushrooms are sourced directly from the globally-recognised mushroom-growing region of Gutian County in Fujian. Our farming partner is organically certified according to EU standards and places a high value on natural, traditional cultivation methods. The mushrooms are selectively harvested by hand between July and October for maximum nutritional value.

Mushrooms are composed of the fruiting body, which typically appears above ground, and the mycelium underneath. The most important nutrients are concentrated in the fruiting body. Products derived from the mycelium are frequently much cheaper because mycelia are cultivated faster, cheaper, and easier. Yet these products hardly contain any of the potent compounds of the mushroom. Our mushroom powders and extracts are exclusively made from the entire fruiting body of the mushroom (including the stem) and contain the full nutritional richness that the mushrooms have to offer.

However, in contrast to extracts, which specifically separate certain ingredients from the overall compound, mushroom powders contain the full spectrum of all natural substances.
To ensure that these nutrients are optimally bioavailable, our powder is gently ground according to the "shell-broken" method to a size of less than 0.1mm. This milling process breaks open the difficult-to-digest cells of the mushroom and makes their contents optimally available.

Cordyceps

Cordyceps (Cordyceps militaris, Raupenpilz, Dong Chong Xia Cao)

The cordyceps is a particularly rare and valuable mushroom. This mushroom grows mostly in elevations of 3,000m or more about sea level in the highlands of Tibet. Yak shepherds in the region discovered that the mushroom, which the yaks would consume while grazing, increased the vitality and resilience of the animals. Cordyceps have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for almost 1500 years since then.

In contrast to many other fungi, the cordyceps does not grown on wood, but rather is a parasite of certain types of caterpillars. The cordyceps mummifies its host and a long brown mushroom grows out of the caterpillar's head which itself looks a bit like a caterpillar: hence the name "caterpillar mushroom". Nowadays, however, cordyceps are mostly cultivated in special substrates or nutrient solutions without caterpillar hosts.

Cultivation & Processing

Our medicinal mushrooms are sourced from the renowned mushroom-growing region of Gutian County (600-700m above sea level), in Fujian, China. The cultivation of mushrooms is an age-old tradition in the region, as is reflected by the unparalleled quality of these mushrooms. The fertile land, sophisticated substrates, as well as the climate, all contribute to a uniquely nutritious end product. Moreover, these pristine lands are protected by dense mountain forests, thus providing an ideal environment for the mushrooms to thrive. Our untreated mushrooms are certified organically grown according to EU standards. They are grown to full maturity and hand-picked at the peak of their ingredient content, between July and October.

The mushrooms retain their raw quality as a result of gentle drying at temperatures below 40°C. This process preserves the delicate enzymes and potent vital substances of the mushrooms. To ensure that these valuable nutrients are bioavailable, the dried mushrooms are then gently milled. Thanks to our use of the "shell-broken" method, the powder attains a fineness of less than 0.125mm, which ensures that the compounds within the cells as well as within the chitin skeleton of the mushroom are optimally available. In this process, the entire fruiting body of the mushrooms is always used in order to fully exploit the wealth of valuable natural mushroom substances.
