Mushroom Complex 6 Types 120 Capsules Maximum Strength

What’s Actually in Mushroom Complex 6, Including a Sourcing Correction

Mushroom Complex 6 formula provides 400mg capsules with an equal 66mg of each of six mushrooms — chaga, shiitake, reishi, lion’s mane, maitake, and cordyceps — each standardised to 30% polysaccharides, using dual extraction (alcohol and hot water) to capture both water- and non-water-soluble compounds.

It’s worth correcting the “wild-harvested” framing for chaga specifically: as covered in more detail in our chaga guide, wild chaga takes 15-20 years to mature, raising genuine overharvesting concerns for natural birch forest populations — cultivated chaga, or chaga clearly sourced from managed forests, is generally the more sustainable, responsible choice, not a lesser one, despite “wild-harvested” often being marketed as a premium quality marker.

Chaga also carries a genuine safety point missing from this product’s description entirely: it’s relatively high in oxalates, and there are documented cases of kidney problems (oxalate nephropathy) associated with excessive chaga consumption, particularly concentrated or prolonged use. If you have a history of kidney stones or kidney disease, speak to your GP before regular use of a chaga-containing product.

The other mushrooms carry their own considerations worth combining here: reishi has mild blood-thinning properties and a more nuanced relationship with liver health than “supports immunity” framing suggests, worth discussing with your GP if you take anticoagulant medication or have a liver condition. Cordyceps may affect blood sugar, relevant if you’re diabetic. Because several of these mushrooms (reishi, cordyceps, shiitake, maitake) have immune-modulating properties, anyone with an autoimmune condition or taking immunosuppressant medication should check with their GP before use. Lion’s mane carries a rare but documented allergy risk.

On polysaccharide content as a quality marker: while genuinely relevant, total polysaccharide percentage isn’t the complete picture researchers use — beta-glucan-specific content is often considered more meaningful than total polysaccharide content, which can include less bioactive compounds. This is a reasonable quality signal, not the single definitive metric this description suggests.

Third-party tested for heavy metals and active compound verification, pullulan (tapioca-derived) vegan capsules, manufactured in the UK to GMP standards. Take up to 4 capsules daily, divided morning and evening. Speak to your GP before starting if you take blood-thinning or diabetes medication, have kidney disease, an autoimmune condition, a liver condition, or take immunosuppressant medication.
