NatPhase

Functional mushrooms are a special category of fungi used for their powerful health benefits beyond basic nutrition. Unlike culinary mushrooms, these varieties are rich in bioactive compounds that support the body’s natural systems. From brain function and energy to immunity and stress response.

At NatPhase, we’ve selected five of the most scientifically backed functional mushrooms:

• Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus)
  
  Known as the “neuro-mushroom,” Lion’s Mane supports memory, focus, and cognitive performance by promoting the production of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF).

• Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum)
  
  Revered in traditional medicine for centuries, Reishi is a powerful adaptogen that helps reduce stress, improve sleep quality, and strengthen the immune system.

• Cordyceps (Cordyceps militaris)
  
  Famous for its energizing properties, Cordyceps increases cellular oxygen uptake and supports endurance, stamina, and physical performance.

• Chaga (Inonotus obliquus)
  
  A dense antioxidant powerhouse, Chaga helps protect your cells from oxidative stress, supports immunity, and promotes overall wellness.

• Maitake (Grifola frondosa)
  
  Maitake is known for its immune-modulating effects and its ability to help balance blood sugar levels naturally.
  

At NatPhase, we provide super-concentrated mushroom extracts with maximum potency and purity. Our 20:1 extraction ratio means we use 20 kg of whole mushrooms to produce just 1 kg of extract. Ensuring a rich, active profile in every dose.

Each extract contains at least 30% β-glucans, the key compounds responsible for many of the health benefits of functional mushrooms. Importantly, we only use the fruiting body (the part of the mushroom with the highest concentration of active ingredients) never the mycelium, which is often used as a filler in lower quality products.

Our mushrooms are sustainably harvested in small villages across the Chinese countryside, where local farmers have cultivated and respected these fungi for generations. This connection to tradition, combined with modern scientific validation, reflects our commitment to both ancestral wisdom and contemporary wellness.

NatPhase is a brand made for those who live with intention, people who care about their health, the planet, and the purity of what they put into their bodies.

At NatPhase, we offer extracts of maximum potency and purity, with a high concentration of beta-glucans. We are committed to sustainability and transparency, drawing inspiration from ancient medicine and supporting it with scientific research. NatPhase is a brand dedicated to those who lead a healthy, conscious lifestyle.

Because of many unique components found in mushrooms, polysaccharides, beta-glucans, triterpenes, ergothioneine, hericenones & erinacines, cordycepin, among many others. They are natural compounds found in mushrooms. They are well-known for their immune-boosting and overall health benefits.
Only like 1 or 2 out of every 100 mushroom types are actually good for your health, but those few are super powerful when it comes to stuff like wellness, brain health, and even medicine.

Functional mushrooms, are both adaptogens and nootropics. This makes them a powerful addition to your wellness routine.

Adaptogens are natural substances, like herbs or mushrooms, that help your body handle stress. They work by supporting your adrenal system and helping you stay balanced, even during challenging times. Examples include ashwagandha, ginseng, and reishi mushrooms.

Nootropics, often called "brain boosters," are substances that support cognitive functions like memory, focus, and mental clarity. They can be natural or synthetic and are used to enhance brain performance and overall mental sharpness. Lion’s Mane mushroom is a great example of a natural nootropic.

Strengthens the immune system: Beta-glucans interact with immune cells (like macrophages, dendritic cells, and neutrophils) through specific receptors (such as Dectin-1) found on the surface of these cells. This activation boosts the immune system’s ability to fight off infections and may also play a role in combating inflammation.

Improves gut health: As a prebiotic fiber, beta-glucans serve as food for beneficial bacteria in the gut. These bacteria ferment the fiber, producing short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which promote gut health and can reduce the risk of gastrointestinal disorders.

Supports cardiovascular health: Beta-glucans help lower cholesterol levels by binding to bile acids in the intestines and promoting their excretion. Since bile acids are made from cholesterol, the body compensates for this loss by converting more cholesterol into bile acids, thus reducing cholesterol levels in the blood.

Regulates blood sugar levels: The soluble fiber nature of beta-glucans means they form a gel-like substance in the digestive system. This slows the absorption of carbohydrates and sugars, leading to more stable blood sugar levels.

Cancer-Fighting Potential: Some studies have found that beta-glucans may enhance the effectiveness of certain cancer treatments like chemotherapy or radiation, though more research is needed.

Yes, combining different functional mushrooms can enhance their benefits. For example, you could take Lion’s Mane for focus alongside Reishi for stress relief. Just be sure to follow dosage recommendations on each product​.

Polysaccharides are natural sugars found in plants and mushrooms, but not all are beneficial. The real powerhouse is Beta-Glucans, a specific type of polysaccharide that boosts your immune system. Be cautious of brands that advertise high polysaccharide content but don’t show beta-glucan levels, those are what truly matter. Natphase delivers the highest amount of beta-glucans on the market, giving you maximum benefits.
