Grass & Co. Biome Chaga Mushroom Powder is a high-strength vegan formula packed with Chaga mushroom, Turmeric, Ginger, and Black Pepper to support digestive health and Vitamin D to support the normal function of the immune system.
Chaga mushroom (Inonotus obliquus) is a type of fungus that grows mainly on the bark of birch trees in cold climates. It has been used for centuries in Siberia and other parts of Asia as an herbal remedy to boost immunity and improve overall health. Chaga mushroom's benefits may be associated with their rich levels of antioxidants and several beneficial plant compounds, including triterpenoids, melanins, polysaccharides, polyphenols, and flavonoids. In addition to antioxidants, Chaga mushrooms provide a range of minerals such as calcium, manganese, and magnesium, as well as B vitamins, vitamin D, and amino acids. Incorporating chaga mushrooms into a healthy, balanced diet may help reduce oxidative stress, lower "bad" cholesterol, and support immune function.
Grass & Co Chaga powder also contains ginger, which helps support digestion and contributes to the normal function of the intestinal tract, and black pepper, which helps maintain natural digestive functions. This unique botanical blend also includes Vitamin D which helps support the normal function of the immune system.
Chaga has a delicious, mild, and smooth earthy flavour. Grass & Co. Chaga mushrooms are grown in greenhouses on natural substrates and extracted with hot water.

What are functional mushroom supplements?
Functional mushrooms deliver a wide range of nutritional benefits and are rich in beta-d-glucan polysaccharides, triterpenoids, antioxidants, vitamins and amino acids.
Are these mushroom supplements the same as magic mushrooms?
No. Magic mushrooms contain psychoactive compounds, such as psilocybin that can produce hallucinations or altered states of consciousness. In contrast, functional mushrooms are daily supplements that may provide many health benefits.
Are mushroom supplements better than eating mushrooms?
Yes! You can eat some of the mushroom types used in the Grass&Co range. But, others, like chaga, are really tough and fibrous. However, functional mushroom supplements deliver more of the naturally potent nutritional benefits and are richer in beta-d-glucan polysaccharides, triterpenoids, antioxidants, vitamins and amino acids. Also, the process of extraction breaks down the chitin (a polysaccharide) in the cell walls which our bodies are not able to do. Therefore, our powerful mushroom supplements are more concentrated, bioavailable and convenient than edible mushrooms.
Are mushrooms legal?
Yes. Grass & Co. mushroom supplements are derived from 100% legal mushroom extracts sourced in Canada and made in the UK.
What’s unique about Grass & Co. Mushrooms?
Grass & Co only use 100% fruiting bodies. Mushroom supplements sourced from fruiting bodies rather than mycelium are richer in the beneficial bioactive compounds and nutrients that shoppers are looking for. The cultivation of our Mushrooms is also vitally important in ensuring the purity of our extracts. Grass & Co source mushrooms grown on wood substrates, as would happen in nature. There are no sterile laboratories or artificial lights. They are grown in greenhouses with natural lighting and fresh air flow. Naturally grown mushrooms offer the full spectrum of active compounds. They contain no additives, mycelium, grains or fillers and are non-GMO and gluten-free.
Can you stack or take more than one type of mushrooms every day?
Yes. We recommend taking no more than 1-2 of each type of Mushrooms per day e.g. FOCUS, RELAX, BIOME, POWER and DREAM. Grass & Co. always recommend to ‘Start low and go slow.’ But, the total recommended limit is 2,000mg (or 2g) of mushroom extract powder per 24 hours.
Do grass & co. Independently test mushrooms?
Yes, and they openly share these Certificates of Analysis on their website product pages. This ensures that customers can be sure exactly how much of the mushrooms and their key components, such as beta-glucans they’re getting.
Are these mushroom supplements vegan?
Yes. The entire Grass & Co. range is vegan and cruelty-free.
