Relax Maitake Mushroom

Grass & Co. Relax Maitake Mushroom supplement with Ashwagandha, Magnesium, and Vitamin B6 helps you feel more calm and relaxed.

Grifola frondosa, also known as Maitake, predominantly grows in China, Japan, and North America. Maitake contains a range of beta-glucans, polyphenolics, flavonoids, and fatty acids such as linoleic acid. Apart from all this, Maitake mushrooms contain a range of amino acids, and although they are not complete protein sources, they may prove valuable to vegetarians and vegans to supplement their amino acid intake. Maitake is also rich in B, C, and D Vitamins as well as essential minerals, particularly copper and potassium.

Maitake mushrooms are becoming hugely popular as a health supplement that is known to be a natural relaxant and support mental clarity, as well as having other nutritional benefits.

Grass & Co. has developed a unique vegan capsule relaxation formula that consists of a full-spectrum Maitake extract from organically grown mushrooms, Ashwagandha, an adaptogenic herb, and Magnesium, a mineral that plays a role in combating stress and anxiety.

Directions: As a food supplement, take one to two Maitake mushroom capsules per day. Do not exceed two capsules per day. 

Not intended for use by persons under the age of 18 or if pregnant. Do not store in direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children. Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied diet and healthy lifestyle. May contain traces of peanuts.

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.

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 Capsules 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. So, you can stack the capsules across the day as each Mushrooms offers its own distinctive nutritional profile. For example, you could take:

• WAKING: BIOME 1 x Cap = 275mg (Chaga) AM:
• FOCUS 2 x Caps = 600mg (Lion's Mane)
• NOON: POWER 2 x Caps = 600mg (Shiitake) P
• M: RELAX 1 x Cap = 250mg (Maitake BED:
• DREAM 1 x Cap = 200mg (Reishi)

Do grass & co. Independently test mushrooms?  
Yes. And, just like our CBD, we openly share these Certificates of Analysis on our 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.
