Mushroom Extract Benefits
What are the benefits of mushroom extracts? Mushroom extracts like our tinctures offer a wide variety of benefits, many of which overlap among the different fungi we use. All of our tinctures support the immune system and the digestive system, and can help with your body’s stress management*. Each mushroom is unique and accomplishes these functions in different ways. For example, some tinctures are great for restful sleep and relaxation, especially our Reishi Mushroom Extract and Artist Conk Mushroom Extract. Other products like our Maitake Mushroom Extract and Turkey Tail Mushroom Extract help boost your immune system*. Cordyceps Mushroom Extract is great for physical energy and stamina*. Because each mushroom works in its own unique way, using multiple mushroom tinctures together can provide compound benefits beyond just taking one on its own. For example, Chaga Mushroom Extract and Lion’s Mane Mushroom Extract are known to work very well together by providing different but complementary benefits to your body. If you’re looking to figure out what’s the best mushroom tincture for you, give them each a try with our Mushroom Extract Bundle. Read through some of our blogs or shop by which benefits you’re looking for. And if you have any other questions please don’t hesitate to give us a call!
Why Alcohol?
Alcohol is one of the most important ingredients for a liquid mushroom extract. This is because certain valuable compounds like triterpenes aren’t soluble in water but are more readily soluble in alcohol. Any mushroom extract that doesn’t include alcohol is simply not as potent as liquid extracts that do use alcohol. We use alcohol at Birch Boys because we believe it’s the best natural way to extract mushrooms to maximize their health benefits.
