Cordyceps-M Capsules
Real Mushrooms is one of the few brands that uses 100% organic mushroom fruiting bodies rather than mycelium grown on grain. They explicitly state the beta-glucan content, which is the actual active compound in adaptogenic mushrooms.
Ingredients & Purity
Made from Cordyceps militaris; hot water extracted to break down chitin and release beta-glucans. Guaranteed >25% Beta-glucans.
Scientific Evidence
Cordyceps is well-regarded for ATP production and oxygen utilization. Real Mushrooms' commitment to fruiting bodies aligns with the material used in traditional Chinese medicine and most successful studies.
Brand Transparency
They provide third-party lab results for every batch and are vocal advocates for honest labeling in the mushroom industry, distinguishing between 'mushroom' and 'mycelium'.
Value Assessment
Excellent value. A 120-capsule bottle lasts two months at a full dose, providing significantly more active compounds per dollar than competitors selling grain-heavy products.
Why Not Alternatives?
The majority of US-grown mushroom products (like Host Defense) are mostly starch (grain) with very little fungal material. Real Mushrooms avoids this 'mycelium on grain' filler entirely, providing a much more potent adaptogenic effect.
