Medi Mushrooms capsules are made using the fruiting body (cap & stalk) of the mushroom, which contain high concentrations of beta-glucans and are best extracted using hot water. Beta-glucans, which are responsible for the immune-supporting benefits of mushrooms, are hot water soluble, and this extraction method makes them highly bioavailable. As a result, the beta-glucans are more readily able to be absorbed and utilised by the body. 

Medi Mushrooms are vegan, Kosher, and Halaal and contain no synthetic preservatives, artificial colours, or flavours.
