The Immunity Blend tincture is made from fruiting bodies, instead of mycelium, for maximum health benefits. North Spore uses Chaga and Reishi mushrooms foraged from the woods of Maine. The Immunity Blend tincture consists of the following four mushrooms, all with immune system boosting qualities: Chaga (Inonotus obliquus), Reishi (Ganoderma tsugae), Shiitake (Lentinula edodes), and Hen of the Woods (Grifola frondosa). Tinctures are meant to be used as a dietary supplement and taken 1-3 times daily or as needed. Our mushroom tincture is extracted using a double extraction technique that involves a month-long alcohol soak followed by a hot water decoction for optimal extraction of both alcohol and water soluble constituents. You can take tinctures directly from the bottle or add it to tea, coffee, juice, or water.
