What is Mushroom Extracts?
Mushroom Extracts is an independent resource dedicated to helping consumers navigate the complex world of mushroom supplements. We analyze and compare products based on extraction methods, beta-glucan content, third-party testing, and transparency. Our goal is to help you make informed decisions about which mushroom extracts deliver real value.
How do you evaluate mushroom supplements?
We evaluate mushroom supplements based on several key factors: extraction method (hot water, alcohol, or dual extraction), beta-glucan and active compound levels, third-party testing and COA availability, ingredient transparency, and company reputation. We prioritize products that use fruiting body extracts over mycelium-on-grain and those that clearly disclose their manufacturing processes.
What makes a quality mushroom extract?
Quality mushroom extracts should contain measurable levels of beta-glucans and other active compounds, use proper extraction methods (hot water for beta-glucans, alcohol for triterpenes), come from fruiting bodies rather than mycelium grown on grain, include third-party testing results, and clearly disclose the source and manufacturing process.
How often do you update your reviews?
We aim to review and update our content regularly as new products enter the market and existing formulations change. If you notice outdated information or a product that needs revisiting, please let us know through our contact page.
Can I suggest a product for review?
Absolutely! We welcome product suggestions from our readers. If there’s a mushroom extract or supplement you’d like us to review, please reach out through our contact page with the product name and brand. While we can’t guarantee we’ll review every suggestion, we prioritize products that our readers are interested in learning more about.
Do you sell mushroom supplements?
No, we do not sell any mushroom supplements or extracts. Mushroom Extracts is purely an informational resource. We provide independent analysis and reviews to help consumers make informed purchasing decisions. We have no inventory, no store, and no financial interest in any specific products. Our only goal is to help you find the best mushroom supplements for your needs.
