Description
We Just love 5 Defenders Organic Mushrooms by Real Mushrooms.
I Love that there is a company that cares about the purity of their mushrooms just like we do. We have foraged our own before, but with the convenience of quality of Real Mushrooms this became a no brainer. I am so proud to share this product with you. I hope you love it just as much as we do!
Potent Immune Blend
5 Defenders™ is a unique blend of the top immune boosting mushrooms: Turkey Tail, Reishi, Maitake, Shiitake and wild harvested Chaga.
All organically sourced and extracted to increase the bioavailability of the beneficial compounds like beta-glucans.
Why Beta-Glucans Matter
Beta-glucans are the most abundant and primary active compound found in mushrooms and mycelium.
These complex polysaccharides are where much of the immunological benefits come from which is why it is so important to validate and guarantee beta-glucan content.
A lack of beta-glucans can be attributed to many things like low quality ingredients, improper processing and extraction or the addition of fillers like grains (see alpha-glucans).
All Real Mushrooms products have verified levels of beta-glucans right on the label so you can trust that you’re getting the benefits you deserve.

Industry Leaders
Backed by over 40 years of experience, they continue to pioneer functional mushroom supplements supported by scientific research.
Beta-glucans Guaranteed
The beneficial mushroom compounds you want are right on the label.
Zero Grain Fillers
Unlike myceliated grain alternatives, their mushroom extracts contain absolutely NO grains or starch fillers.
Do You Really Know What’s in Your Mushrooms?
Many products that claim to contain mushrooms actually contain none. What they are is the mushroom’s root system, known as mycelium, which is grown on grains like rice and oats and this grain cannot be separated from the final product. This residual grain contributes high levels of starch which in turn dilutes the potential for active compounds like beta-glucans.
A 2017 study from Nature on reishi supplements found that 74% of products were inauthentic with 68% containing starch-like polysaccharides (ie. fillers). _ This statement holds true for Amanita fakes as well.
ConsumerLab also found similar results in their reishi report and found Real Mushrooms to be their #1 choice.
