What mushrooms are considered “Functional” mushrooms?

Any mushroom that contains compounds which deliver added functionality to your beyond general nutrients, typically referred to as secondary metabolites, are considered functional mushrooms. The most celebrated and studied of these are, Chaga, Reishi, Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps, Turkey Tail, Maitake, and Shiitake, but there are many others.

Can I have more than one serving per day?

Many of our customers consume 2 or 3 servings per day. Some who are dealing with active conditions, take up to 10.

Can I mix the different products together?

All of our SLX products can be used in tandem. We often mix two or more varieties together when making a protein shake, depending on the functionality we’re interested in.

How do I use the SLX?

Any way you want! You can take it directly by itself off a spoon or add it to any food or beverage you desire. Many of our customers use it as a replacement for sugar in their coffee or tea due to its naturally sweet taste.

How long is it good for?

Our SLX extracts are good for 3 years if kept in a normal room temperature, out of direct sunlight.

Are your products made from Fruiting Bodies or MOG?

All of our products are made by extracting the beneficial compounds directly from fruiting bodies, we do not use any MOG in our products.

What’s the difference between fruiting bodies and MOG?

Fruiting bodies contain all of the nutrients we expect to find in a functional mushroom, including the ones that they develop because of their interaction with their native environment. Lab grown mycelium on grain does not contain the same nutrient profile and once grown, cannot be separated from its substrate, thereby leaving a significant amount of starchy substrate in the final product.

What’s so special about your chaga?

The chaga mushroom contains over 200 bioactive compounds and secondary metabolites that can help benefit your body in many ways. It is the most powerful antioxidant superfood ever discovered. Our chaga is sourced directly from locals and natives in Alaska, who harvest the mushrooms traditionally from the birch forest during the winter. It is tested for pathogens, impurities and potency to ensure market-leading quality.

What is a functional mushroom?

Are your products safe for pregnant women or small children?

There has been some research on the safety of functional mushroom use during pregnancy and chaga has been shown to be safe, but some of the other herbs may not be. We suggest consulting with your medical professional and if they agree, our pure chaga is probably best for pregnant and/or nursing women and young children. For children, the daily maximum is 1 teaspoon per 50 pounds of bodyweight.

Is there anyone who should not use your products?

You should always consult your doctor prior to using functional mushrooms or herbs, as some of them may not be appropriate for certain conditions. They may also be contra-indicated for certain medications, such as blood thinners or immune-suppresants.

Are there any allergens in your products?

If you have an allergy to mushrooms, then our products are probably not for you, even though chaga is very different than button mushrooms. We use glycerin of coconut origin, so if you have an allergy to coconuts, you should not use our products.
