Crafting Excellence

Our Quality Promise

We are passionate about the purity and quality of Light Chi Medicinal Mushroom Supplements. Our commitment to excellence is reflected in our careful selection and processing of the functional mushrooms that form the core of our products. Here’s what you need to know about Light Chi supplements:

Understanding Mycelium and Fruiting Body

Functional mushrooms contain two main parts: the mycelium (Roots) and the fruiting body (Top). While both contain valuable compounds, they have different health benefits, bioactive compounds, and structures. The fruiting body is the reproductive structure of the mushroom and is commonly consumed, while the mycelium grows underground and is usually not part of regular meals.

The Importance of Fruiting Body Selection

Many mycelium extracts are considered to be interlaced with up to 80-90% filler of rice or oat powder. This dilutes the beneficial compounds found in functional mushrooms. We focus on the fruiting body, which contains a significant amount more of valuable compounds than the mycelium.

Our Commitment to Quality

We grow, dry, and process our own product (Fruiting Bodies), ensuring only the highest quality fruiting body gets processed. Our supplements are made in small batches, and our capsules are filled with 600mg – 1000mg of fruiting body per capsule, without any other cheap filler ingredients.

Active Compounds and Benefits

Beta-glucans and Immunity Balance: These polysaccharides, found in the fruiting body’s cell wall, support natural immune function. It’s vital to choose mushroom extracts containing the right kind of beta-glucans (1,3 1,6 beta-glucans). Triterpenoids and Liver Support: The triterpenoids in the fruiting body may act like a soothing balm for the liver and help with inflammatory support post-workout and defense against occasional stress.

Beware of Misleading Marketing

Many companies brand their products as “Certified 100% Organic Mushroom Powder” but list ingredients like “myceliated brown rice.” We believe in transparency and quality, and we offer supplements with 100% mushroom fruiting bodies.
