Using mushrooms to support a healthy immune response is a tradition that goes back for thousands of years. Increasingly, scientific publications indicate as many as 300 types of mushrooms may play an important role in how we respond to toxins, illness, or abnormal cell formation. Traditional and folk medicine has used mushrooms to combat inflammation and support the immune system, each species also supporting specific health and wellness benefits. Mushroom Immune Support supplies a blend of nine USA Grown Organic Mushroom powders: Reishi, Maitake, Chaga, Shitake, Cordyceps, King Trumpet, Royal Sun, Lion’s Mane, and Turkey Tail.†

Benefits
Mushroom Immune Support provides a synergistic blend of mushroom mycelium and fruiting bodies, supplying a diverse range of myco-nutrients to help the immune system respond to the insult of immune challenges. Mushrooms have been shown to have immunomodulating effects, meaning they help keep the immune system in balance — stimulating it when there’s something to fight (during an illness) and downregulating it when it’s overactive.†
Organic mycelium and fruiting bodies, with a full spectrum of myco-nutrients: polysaccharides (beta-glucans, arabinoxylans, glucose, xylose, galactose, and cordycepic acid), glycoproteins, ergosterols, triterpenoids, and other components to encourage Natural Immunity.†
Mushroom Immune Support maximizes the body’s defenses with the natural power of beta-glucan from Organic Reishi, Organic Turkey Tail, Organic Shitake, Organic Maitake, and Organic Chaga.†
Mushrooms in the blend support a variety of other functions: respiratory, digestive, circulatory, and natural blood-sugar modulation.†
A broad spectrum mushroom blend, like Mushroom Immune Support, may help the body & mind adapt to physical, mental, and environmental stress factors.†
LABEL
Cordyceps (Cordyceps sinensis) mushrooms are different than many others in that they are parasitic fungi. They grow all over the world, infecting insects as their host. Cordyceps can be hard to source and/or expensive, so some cordyceps supplement manufacturers will now source a natural cordyceps that has been grown into a vegetarian or vegan substrate (often grain-based). Cordyceps might improve immunity by stimulating cells and specific chemicals in the immune system, and by supporting an increase in the number of red blood cells, which transport oxygen and carbon dioxide to and from tissue.† There are also studies that demonstrate the positive role of Cordyceps mushroom in cardiovascular function and glucose support.†

U.S. Grown
Standardized to 40% polysaccharides, 400 mg
Contains no: sugar, salt, dairy, wheat, gluten, peanuts, tree nuts, preservatives, artificial colors, or artificial flavors.

Benefits
Cordyceps may boost VO2 Max, increasing how much oxygen the body has to use during exercise and physical labor.†
Cordyceps are thought to increase the body’s production of the molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is essential for delivering energy to the muscles.†
In traditional medicine, Cordyceps is believed to help with aging. The elderly have historically used Cordyceps to reduce fatigue, boost strength and restore sex drive.
Several studies suggest Cordyceps may support healthy blood sugar levels.†
Cordyceps may also have a beneficial effect on cholesterol levels. Animal research has shown that Cordyceps decrease “bad” LDL cholesterol and Triglycerides.†
Cordyceps is said to promote a healthy inflammatory response. Research has shown that when human cells are exposed to Cordyceps, special proteins that increase inflammation in the body may be suppressed.†
Cordyceps showed up in Tibetan medical transcripts way back in the 15th century, where it was used as an aphrodisiac. Today it is used for mood enhancement.†

Turkey Tail (Trametes versicolor) mushroom is one of the best-documented mushrooms in scientific research. Found in woodlands throughout the world, the Turkey Tail is famous for its role in supporting immune health and has been used for centuries in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Native American herbalism. Turkey Tail supports the innate immune response with its protein-bound and unique polysaccharides and more recently has even been used in numerous studies for breast cancer, and with notable results.†

Benefits
Turkey Tail supplies numerous polysaccharides (beta glucans, arabinoxylane, fucose, glucose, xylose, galactose and mannose), glycoproteins, ergosterols, triterpenoids and other myco-nutrients, which support our Natural Immunity.†
Packed with antioxidants, Turkey Tail contains an impressive array of antioxidants, including phenols and flavonoids. Phenol and flavonoid antioxidants promote immune system health by supporting healthy inflammatory and stimulating the release of protective compounds.†
Turkey Tail contains prebiotics, which help nourish these helpful bacteria. An 8-week study in 24 healthy people found that consuming turkey tail mushrooms daily led to beneficial changes in gut bacteria.†
