FAQs
What is Functional Four?
A blend of four mushroom extracts including Cordyceps, Lion’s Mane, Reishi, and Chaga, processed using dual extraction to retain a broad range of naturally occurring compounds.
How is this different from mushroom powder?
Most mushroom powders are simply dried and ground material. This product uses extracted mushrooms, meaning the key compounds have been isolated and concentrated.
What are beta-glucans and why do they matter?
Beta-glucans are naturally occurring polysaccharides found in mushrooms. They are often used as a marker of extract quality and are one of the key compounds retained through proper extraction processes.
