This is a 1 pound (16 ounces) bag of Reishi mushroom powder, consisting of activated Reishi mycelium and fruiting body preparation. Other ingredients: organic myceliated brown rice.

The rice is consumed by the mycelia. It is not a filler. This is full disclosure regarding the ingredients. Mushroom Harvest takes many steps to ensure purity and a high constituent content. They are also concerned about providing mushroom products in which the constituents are in a bioavailable form. The main constituents of mushrooms, the 1,3-Beta Glucans, are tightly bound to the cell walls and have a low degree of bioavailability in raw mushrooms. To overcome this and increase the bioavailability of the constituents, all of their mushrooms undergo a steam activation process that breaks down the cell walls and frees the 1,3-Beta Glucans from the chitin. USDA Certified Organic: The mushrooms for this product are carefully grown, harvested, and processed at a certified organic farm and laboratory. To verify quality, each batch is sent to a third party analytical laboratory for testing. Made by Mushroom Harvest, Inc. in Ohio, U.S.A. Referred to for many centuries as the "Mushroom of Immortality," Reishi's medicinal attributes have been highly revered as potent and effective.
