What is dual extraction?

It is a process that extracts key nutrients from mushrooms. Dried fruiting bodies undergo double extraction – with hot water and alcohol in a 1:5 ratio. Alcohol is used to release substances that are insoluble in water. That’s why the tincture is so rich in active substances.

The product itself is made from fruiting bodies, not mycelium (the substrate). All the beneficial substances are indeed found in this part of the mushroom that grows above the surface. Some manufacturers use laboratory-grown mycelium, and their products may lack some active substances.
