MycoNutri specialises in high-quality mushroom extracts with clearly defined specifications for key active compounds.
At Ivywood, we are the Irish distributor of MycoNutri medicinal mushroom products. This 14-16:1 extract is standardised to contain more than 30% beta-glucans and 3% total triterpenes.
Chaga exhibits strong antioxidant activity, supported by its complex profile of phenols, beta-glucans and triterpenoids.
MycoNutri™ Chaga is responsibly wild-harvested dual extract from mature Inonotus obliquus conks growing on birch trees in the forests surrounding Lake Baikal, Siberia.
The harvested part of Chaga is the sterile conk (sclerotium), which then undergoes a two-stage extraction process. First, using ethanol to extract the triterpenes and phenolics, followed by hot-water extraction to obtain high levels of polysaccharides, resulting in an extract containing over 30% beta-glucans and 3% triterpenes.
