Host Defense Mushrooms™, Turkey Tail, 120 Capsules (0.5 g per Capsule)
UPC: 633422027333
Host Defense Turkey Tail Capsules are a dietary supplement formulated to support immune and digestive health, using a whole-mushroom approach that includes both mycelium and its fermented substrate. Each capsule contains 1 gram of Turkey Tail (Trametes versicolor) mycelium and fermented brown rice biomass, with the manufacturer noting that this combination is designed to promote a balanced immune response and act as a prebiotic for gut microflora, based on clinical research.
This product is notable for its focus on mushroom mycelium, which the manufacturer cites as being supported by peer-reviewed studies, including an NIH-funded clinical trial showing immunological activity. The fermented substrate is highlighted as complementary to the mycelium, with research indicating both components contribute to immune benefits beyond just beta-glucans. Host Defense emphasizes that no fillers are used, as both the mycelium and substrate are considered active ingredients.
Available in a 120-capsule bottle, with directions to take 2 capsules daily, it is certified organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegan. The capsules are made with pullulan and produced in the USA.
