Pure Essence Labs MyPure™ Maitake -- 500 mg - 60 Vegi-Caps

500 mg of Mushroom Nutrition Minimum 25% Beta-Glucans Immune Support Blood Sugar Friendly MyPure™ Maitake Maitake (Grifola frondosa) is a truly wondrous mushroom. Maitake means "dancing mushroom," and was adopted as the mushroom's folk name because people are said to have advanced in joy over the delightful sense of wellbeing it brought into their lives. Maitake contains rich levels of the Beta-(1,3)(1,6)-D-glucans that contribute to general immunity, a wide variety of vitamins and minerals and a host of phytochemical factors including the specific polysaccharide known as Fraction-D. Substantial research has shown that its phytochemical profile supports healthy cholesterol and blood sugar levels as well as immune function. Like Reishi and Cordyceps, it is classified as an adaptogen, meaning that it helps the body adapt to stress, fatigue and tension. Each capsule of MyPure™ Maitake provides 500 mg of our premium, 1:1 extract of 100% non-GMO, certified organic Maitake mushrooms. As part of the extraction process, the mushrooms are hot water treated to break down their cell walls and maximize nutrient bioavailability. MyPure™ Maitake is a truly wondrous Maitake supplement. MyPure™ Mushrooms For thousands of years, the world's great holistic traditions have touted the benefits of mushrooms. These benefits stem from mushroom phytochemicals. "Mushrooms," however, are the "fruiting bodies" of organisms called basidiomycetes. These organisms also have other parts. Mycelia, for example, are the root-like structures that grow beneath the ground. The nutritional profiles of true mushrooms and mycelia (also  known as mycelium, myceliated grain, full spectrum, full life cycle, grain spawn, etc.) differ. Since the purpose of a mushroom supplement is to provide mushroom nutrients, your mushroom supplement should be 100% mushroom fruiting bodies. MyPure™ Mushrooms are 100% non-GMO, certified organic, whole mushroom powdered extracts. They are hot water treated to break down the cell wall to make the mushroom nutrients available. Every batch is lab tested and guaranteed to provide specific levels of Beta-(1,3)(1,6)-D-glucans. In fact, one capsule of MyPure Mushrooms provides more beta glucans and other phytonutrients than two capsules of the same species of myceliated grain. For this reason, they are the finest, most economical mushroom supplements available anywhere. Directions Use as directed by a healthcare professional.
