Mushrooms
Functional mushrooms are special edible mushrooms that have been valued for thousands of years for their special ingredients. In addition to their widespread use in Asia, they have also been known in Europe for centuries, for example from the famous discovery of the ice mummy Oetzi in South Tyrol (3200 BC), alongside whom functional mushrooms were found.
Mushroom Blends
Our balanced mixtures of important functional mushrooms provide synergistic combinations of organic, concentrated extracts. Each mushroom has its own nutrient profile and contains valuable compounds such as polysaccharides, beta-glucans, vitamins, minerals, trace elements and amino acids. The mushrooms are sourced from Gutian, in China's Fujian County, a region renowned for its long tradition of mushroom cultivation. 100% vegan, no additives.
Chaga
Chaga (Inonotus obliquus, Fungus betulinus or clinker polypore) is considered one of the most important functional mushrooms in the Baltics, Russia, Siberia, China, Korea and Japan. This mushroom, which grows high off the ground in birch forests, thrives when exposed to both bitterly cold winters and hot summers. It is exceptionally rich in nutrients, and in the Baltics as well as across what is now known as Russia, the preparation of chaga as a tea has been documented for centuries.

Cordyceps
Cordyceps originally grew in the highlands of Tibet at elevations of over 3000m above sea level. The mushroom was discovered by yak herders, who noticed extraordinary vitality and resistance in the animals that ate it while grazing. Since then, for almost 1500 years, cordyceps has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for strengthening the body.

Mushroom Coffee
Mushroom coffees, turmeric lattes and moon milk have been particularly popular in recent years and are a tasty alternative or supplement to coffee. They are ideal for a healthy morning or evening routine thanks to their wide range of beneficial, nutritious ingredients such as mushrooms, turmeric, matcha, ashwagandha or maca. The extra-fine powder is easy to stir into a plant-based drink alternative, does not clump and creates a particularly creamy texture. The harmoniously balanced bouquet of selected ingredients creates unique flavours depending on the plant drink used.
