Medical mushrooms
Medicinal mushrooms have always accompanied humans – in the traditions of Asia, Siberia, and among Native American peoples. They were often treated as treasures of nature, not only found on the table but also played an important role in culture and rituals.
Today, we know they contain polysaccharides, beta-glucans, antioxidants, and many other valuable bioactive substances. At ImmBoo, we use the most prized species— Chaga, Lion's Mane, Reishi, and Cordyceps —to draw on tradition in a modern way.
Chaga – the black gold of Siberia
- Beta-glucans – natural compounds present in many plants and fungi, support the body's natural immunity.
- Melanins – are responsible for the intense, dark color of Chaga; they act as a natural antioxidant shield.
- Polyphenols – help neutralize free radicals, which supports cell protection.
- Trametonolides – researched compounds that are associated with anti-inflammatory processes in the body.
Lion's Mane – the lion's white mane
- Beta-glucans – fiber that supports dietary balance and may have a beneficial effect on cholesterol levels.
- Hericenones and erinacines – compounds unique to Lion's Mane, interesting for their role in the functioning of the nervous system.
- Polysaccharides – support the body's natural immune mechanisms.
This unusual mushroom has earned the nickname "mind mushroom" because it has been associated with cognitive functions and concentration for years.
Reishi – the mushroom of immortality
- Polysaccharides – for centuries associated with improved immunity and vitality.
- Triterpenes – give Reishi its characteristic bitter taste and at the same time support the body in the fight against oxidative stress.
- Ergothioneine – a rare antioxidant that acts as a natural cell protector.
Cordyceps – the secret of the Himalayas
- Beta-glucans and polysaccharides – support the body's defenses and overall immunity.
- Cordycepin – a unique component of this mushroom, linked to the natural process of energy production in cells.
- Natural bioactive substances – can promote better performance and a sense of energy on a daily basis
Cordyceps is considered an energy mushroom – perhaps that is why it has accompanied the inhabitants of high-mountain regions for hundreds of years.
