What is the benefit of using hot-water extraction for mushrooms?

1 min. readlast update: 09.15.2020

Hot-water extraction helps to break down the cell walls of the mushroom fruiting bodies which make their valuable immune-modulating beta-glucans and other compounds more prevalent, bio-available and at higher levels. Compared to simply grinding raw mush-rooms into powder which results in beta-glucans levels below 1%, our hot-water extracted mushroom blend consists of 100% mushroom fruiting bodies with guaranteed beta-glucan levels not less than 30%.
