Many brands hide behind the dried weight without disclosing how much water remains in the mushroom. Others hide behind an extraction formula without declaring any weight of mushroom at all! We do both - our mushrooms are dried to approximately 10% dried weight meaning a quarter of a kg is used in a single 100ml bottle!
The Fung Shui Promise
When it comes to quality, potency, and purity, Fung Shui sets the standard. Here’s why our tincture is hands down the best choice:
Our 1:4 extraction ratio (e.g. 1kg of mushroom per 4 litres of liquid) offers a stronger, more effective tincture than the typical 1:6, 1:8 or 1:10 or ratios found elsewhere.
Most mushroom supplements are diluted with mycelium on grain. We use 100% fruiting body—the most potent part of the mushroom.
✔ Higher Active Compounds – More beta-glucans, triterpenes & antioxidants.
✔ No Grain Fillers – Just pure mushroom power, no starch or residue.
✔ Tradition Meets Science – Used for centuries, now proven by modern research.
✔ Superior Extraction – Dual-extracted for full-spectrum potency.
By combining alcohol, hot water and ultrasonic assisted extraction, we capture both water-soluble and alcohol-soluble compounds, crucial for breaking down the cell walls. This cell wall is composed of chitin, a robust substance also found in the hard shells of crabs and lobsters. Since the human body cannot digest chitin, an extraction process is essential to release the beneficial compounds. This ensures you receive the complete spectrum of beneficial compounds, including polysaccharides, beta-glucans and triterpenoids. The alcohol also makes it last longer.
Clean, ethical ingredients without compromise.
All our mushrooms are grown, foraged, made and bottled in good old Blighty – the home of cold, damp conditions perfect for mushroom growing. This also decreases the food miles created in the supply chain.
Triple distilled and organic alcohol is one of the reasons why our tinctures taste so smooth, and so they should given the short ingredients list.
We want to be true to the immense power of mushrooms, so don’t add, you guessed it…..any flavourings, additives or preservatives whatsoever. No need to be concerned about additives which can be found in powders and capsules, or bulking agents or preservatives for that matter. We don’t add anything during the extraction process other than the dried fruiting body, spring water and triple distilled alcohol. Nice.
When not foraged, we only source organic mushrooms from our UK farmers.
