About this supplement
Turkey Tail (Trametes versicolor) is the fan-shaped, banded mushroom you will find on fallen logs in woodlands around the world, and it is one of the most studied mushrooms in scientific research. Its protein-bound polysaccharides are the reason people take it, and Host Defense describes the capsules as supporting natural immunity and the natural microbiome.
Host Defense grows certified organic Turkey Tail mycelium on organic brown rice and freeze-dries it to preserve the full spectrum of constituents, including beta-glucan polysaccharides, fucose, glycoproteins, ergosterols and triterpenoids. Vegetarian capsules, with or without food.

From Host Defense
Organic mushroom mycelium supplements, founded by mycologist Paul Stamets
Host Defense was founded by mycologist Paul Stamets, and its supplements are made from certified organic mushroom mycelium grown in Washington state. We carry the single mushrooms (Lion's Mane, Turkey Tail, Reishi, Chaga and Cordyceps) in capsules, Lion's Mane as a powder too, plus the Stamets 7 and MyCommunity blends and formulas like CordyChi and Breathe. Choose capsules or powder by habit: capsules travel easily, and the powders stir into coffee or smoothies. Lion's Mane comes in three capsule sizes, so it's easy to try.
