What is turkey tail mushroom Extract powder?
Turkey Tail Mushroom Extract Powder is derived from Coriolus versicolor, a mushroom known for its brightly colored, fan-shaped appearance that resembles a turkey's tail. This medicinal mushroom has a long history in traditional Chinese medicine and is highly regarded for its immune-boosting properties, primarily due to its high levels of polysaccharides, especially beta-glucans. Its popularity has increased significantly in recent years, particularly in the dietary supplement market, where it is used to support immune health, overall wellness, and more.
Sourcing and Raw Materials
The raw materials for our powder come from carefully selected regions in China where the climate and natural environment provide optimal conditions for growing high-quality turkey tail mushrooms. These regions are specifically chosen because they provide the right balance of humidity, soil fertility, and clean air, which is essential to ensure that the mushroom produces the highest concentration of active compounds.
Raw Materials Processing
After harvesting, the mushrooms are cold-dried to preserve their delicate polysaccharides and other beneficial compounds. The drying process is critical as it ensures that the active ingredients remain potent. After drying, the mushrooms are ground into a fine powder for easy incorporation into a variety of products.
Extraction of Beneficial Compounds
The key beneficial compounds we extract from turkey tail mushrooms are polysaccharides, specifically beta-glucans. These compounds are known to support immune function by stimulating the activity of immune cells such as macrophages and T cells. The extraction process involves the use of a water-based method to preserve the integrity of the polysaccharides, ensuring they remain bioavailable in the final product.
Popular Product Specifications
Our powder is available in different specifications, with the most popular being polysaccharides ≥ 30%. This fine powder is light brown in color and has the typical mild earthy aroma and slightly bitter taste of mushrooms. It is partially soluble in water, making it ideal for use in supplements, teas, and other health products.
Market Applications
Our customers primarily use turkey tail mushroom Extract powder in the nutraceutical and functional food sectors. It is often added to dietary supplements, immune health formulas, and even functional beverages. Depending on the application, the recommended dosage range is 500 mg to 2 grams per day. When added to finished products, it has an immune-boosting effect, helping consumers maintain overall health and well-being.
