Triple Extraction: Our Method for Superior Mushroom Extracts

How We Take It Slow to Make the Best Mushroom Extracts You can’t rush perfection. We listen to nature — and science — and give our mushrooms the time they need. We work with farmers who let their flushes flourish, and every Certified Organic mushroom gets steam-processed to start breaking down the chitin in the cell walls. Then comes our unique triple-extraction process. First, we ferment them to boost bioavailability of polysaccharides, triterpenoids and alkaloids. Next, comes a hot-water extraction for the polysaccharides. Finally, we do a 90-day alcohol extraction for the triterpenoids and other beneficial compounds. All told, it takes about 100 days (and sometimes more) to make each extract!
