From late summer through early fall, in temperate hardwood forests across America, mushroom hunters and enthusiasts are searching for the delicious culinary delight known as Maitake Mushrooms.

This fabulous fungus is researched by mycologists for its potent healing properties and prized by top chefs for its unique application in the culinary world.

It has been used as a powerful nourishing tonic in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years as an honored food that may support longevity.

But, this fabulous fungus is much more than your ordinary white button mushroom. Its unique and profound appearance, delicious texture and flavor, and powerful nourishing qualities demand respect be given to the fungi known as the “king” of the mushroom world.

Some research suggests that Maitake may contain the following constituents:

Suggested use: 1 tablespoon daily in soup, smoothie, or on salad.

Other Preparations:

Decoction: Use the ratio of 1 tablespoon of herb for every 10 ounces of water. Put all ingredients into a pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover & lower to a simmer for 20-30 minutes. Turn the heat off and allow the mixture to sit for another 10 minutes. Strain and serve (this method is specific for barks and roots).

Tincture: This method can take 15 to 30 days. You will need three items (a mason jar with a cover, the herb/herbs of your choice, and liquid for extracting). The extracting liquid can be alcohol, alcohol/ water combo, vinegar, or vegetable glycerin. Take the product and fill the jar ¾ full, add the liquid of your choice, and close the jar. Then shake the jar, so everything is well mixed. Give the jar a good 5-minute shake several times a day. After 15 to 30 days, strain and bottle in glass tincture jars.

Mixing suggestions: To increase flavor and nutritional profile, combine with our Luo 7% extract powder in a hot tea. (please follow instructions for decoction above).
