Reishi

Reishi mushrooms are valued for their wide range of wellness-supporting properties in pets. Traditionally used to promote immune and inflammatory balance, they also help maintain normal cardiovascular and liver function. Reishi is especially known for supporting respiratory wellness and can be beneficial for pets needing seasonal or environmental support. This adaptogenic mushroom may also help the body manage stress, support cortisol balance, and encourage overall vitality in dogs and cats.

By regulating the body’s response to allergens, Reishi mushrooms help ease symptoms like itching, inflammation, and respiratory discomfort, making them an excellent natural solution for allergy-prone pets.

Reishi mushrooms are highly regarded for their ability to enhance respiratory function by reducing inflammation and increasing oxygenation in the body.

Our MycoDog Breathe tincture also combines Reishi with other medicinal mushrooms to further support lung and respiratory health.

Our Reishi Mushrooms are naturally cultivated in the Pacific Northwest.

Mushrooms act as bio-accumulators, absorbing toxins from polluted air and soil. While China has long been associated with mushroom cultivation, it ranks among the most polluted nations globally.

In contrast, mushrooms cultivated in their natural habitat in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States away from such pollutants and toxins. This distinction is crucial when selecting mushrooms for canine consumption.

MycoDog mushroom extracts are meticulously crafted from mushrooms cultivated outdoors, free from grains or fillers. Given mushrooms' ability to absorb environmental toxins, we prioritized sourcing from the woodlands of the Pacific Northwest. This ensures minimal exposure to pollutants that could otherwise affect the mushrooms' purity and efficacy.

How mushrooms are grown significantly influences the benefits of a mushroom supplement for pets.

Were you aware that mushrooms can be cultivated on substrates like grain and rice and sawdust? It's a cost-effective and expedient method for large-scale production.

However, the issue lies in the nutritional content. Essentially, you are what you eat. Mushrooms cultivated on grains absorb the nutrients from these substrates, which often lack the essential health benefits your dog requires.

Conversely, when mushrooms grow naturally on trees in the wild, they absorb vital vitamins and nutrients crucial for your dog's well-being.

Interestingly, many people overlook the fact that mushrooms are grown, harvested, extracted, and packaged right here in the United States! With a bit of exploration, you'll discover that the Pacific Northwest serves as a haven for mushrooms, supplying us with naturally cultivated varieties for over 2,400 years. It's a hidden gem of America, yet imperative to recognize to ensure we access the finest mushroom sources for ourselves and our pets, while also supporting our local farmers.
