What are mushroom supplements?

Mushroom supplements are concentrated products made from edible and functional mushrooms, usually in powder or extract form. Well-known varieties include lion's mane, chaga, and reishi, each with its own composition of natural substances such as beta-glucans.

Within the BeatsWell range, these supplements are primarily available as powders. The powder is finely ground and dissolves easily, making it suitable for daily use.

How are mushroom supplements made?

Mushroom supplements are made by drying the mushrooms and grinding them into a fine powder, or by concentrating the constituents through an extraction process. The quality mainly depends on which part of the mushroom is used.

For high-quality products, the preference is for the fruiting body rather than the mycelium. The fruiting body typically contains a higher concentration of beta-glucans. Additionally, a double extraction with water and alcohol makes both water-soluble and alcohol-soluble substances available.

Benefits of mushroom supplements

Mushroom supplements are used for various reasons, and those reasons differ by species. Many people choose functional mushrooms due to their long history in herbal use. At the same time, these species are receiving renewed attention in modern nutritional research.

Lion's mane is a good example of this. This species has traditionally been used in Asian cuisine and herbal traditions and is being studied in research in relation to the nervous system. Many people choose lion's mane because they are consciously working on focus and mental clarity.

Chaga has a long history in Northern European and Siberian herbal traditions and naturally contains beta-glucans. In research, chaga is being examined in relation to the immune system, although that research is still very much in development.

Blends combine multiple species and are often chosen by those who want several functional mushrooms in one product. In all of this, the science is not yet conclusive. BeatsWell is transparent about this and selects products based on quality and origin, not on grand promises.
