Since ancient times, many cultures have relied on medicinal mushrooms for treating, healing, and improving the symptoms of countless illnesses and ailments. Medicinal mushroom supplements are more popular than ever as we continue to learn of all their amazing benefits.

To understand how we get these benefits, let’s learn how medicinal mushrooms are sourced:

• The fruiting body refers to the reproductive part of the fungus and is often characterized by its stalk and cap. This part of the mushroom can be used to create potent extracts using hot water and/or alcohol.
• The mycelium consists of a mass of branching filaments like the root system or web, often growing in soil or organic matter. To get all the nutrients, the mycelium is grown, dried and milled into a fine powder.

Combining the mycelium and fruiting body extract ensures you get a highly potent dose of powerhouse antioxidants, filled with all the beneficial compounds to support your health goals. That way you get the full spectrum of benefits each mushroom has to offer.

CanPrev’s Multi-Mushroom Full Spectrum is formulated with a unique blend of 7 medicinal mushrooms:

Chaga is rich in antioxidants needed to stimulate the immune system as well as proteins called cytokines that positively impact the body by supporting white blood cell production. Chaga also has natural anti-inflammatory powers which can help support the body against diseases that often occur due to long-term inflammation in the body.

Cordyceps has adaptogenic properties that help our bodies cope with emotional and physical stressors. Cordyceps is widely known to support exercise performance and energy production. In traditional Chinese Medicine, cordyceps is used in times of “low chi” (life force energy) to raise energy levels. It’s also a good source of antioxidants and boasts immune-modulating properties.

Lion’s Mane is traditionally used to strengthen the immune system and support cognition and brain health. Its impact on brain health can specifically be tied to its ability to boost the production of nerve growth and myelin, an insulating layer that coats the nerves.

Maitake contains compounds that benefit the immune system by protecting against cellular deformities and it supports blood sugar regulation.

Reishi is often associated with mood and stress because it has adaptogenic properties that help quell fatigue along with physical and mental stress.

Shiitake is widely known for its heart health benefits as it is a potent source of phytonutrients that support healthy blood pressure and circulation.

Turkey Tail is the powerhouse of immune health support because it contains a specific compound called polysaccharide-K that stimulates the immune system. Thanks to its healing properties, it’s often used as a natural treatment for those living with chronic illness.

Multi-Mushroom Full Spectrum is ideal for anyone who’s looking to support their immune health while also boosting their antioxidant intake. This formula is made with organic mushrooms sourced from both the mycelia and fruiting body. This means you get the full spectrum of medicinal compounds, for a full spectrum of benefits.
