Product tagline (goes under the product name):
"The dancing mushroom — support immune resilience, metabolic balance, and healthy blood sugar regulation."
Main product description:
Our Maitake Balance tincture is produced from 100% fruiting bodies of Grifola frondosa, organically cultivated to the highest standards and ethically wild-harvested from oak and beech trees across the UK and certified European forests.
We use a meticulous dual-extraction process — first a hot water extraction to capture the immune-modulating beta-glucans and the renowned D-fraction polysaccharides, followed by an alcohol extraction to draw out the supporting compounds that make Maitake one of the most extensively studied medicinal mushrooms in metabolic health research.
Known in Japan as "Maitake" — literally "dancing mushroom" — this remarkable fungus has been treasured for centuries, both as a culinary delicacy and as a powerful medicinal ally. Modern research has confirmed its traditional reputation, with particular focus on its role in supporting healthy immune function, blood sugar balance, and metabolic wellness.
The result is a deeply concentrated, bioavailable tincture that works gently with your body to support immune resilience, maintain healthy glucose metabolism, and promote overall metabolic balance — particularly valuable for those seeking natural support for long-term metabolic health.
What's inside: Maitake Mushroom Fruiting Body Extract (Grifola frondosa, 500mg/ml), Organic Grain Alcohol (40% vol), Purified Water. Nothing else.
Beta-glucan content: Minimum 30% (including D-fraction) — verified by independent third-party laboratory analysis. Certificate of Analysis available on request.
How to use: 1.5ml (approximately 30 drops / 1.5 dropperfuls) once or twice daily. Hold under the tongue for 60 seconds for maximum sublingual absorption, or add to water, herbal tea, or meals. The mild, earthy flavour is gentle and versatile.
When to take it: Maitake Balance can be taken any time of day. Many users take it with meals to support healthy blood sugar response, or in the morning as part of their foundational wellness routine. Consistent daily use for at least 30 days is recommended for best results.
