Meet the Mushrooms
Concisely created with modern science and innovation, our products harness the power of organic mushrooms as Mother Earth intended. Used for thousands of years, these mushrooms offer a wide variety of functional benefits.
Mycelium vs. Fruiting Body
When choosing our organic mushrooms, we select the most nutrient dense parts of the whole mushroom in our products to tailor our formulations to meet the specific goals of each product.
Mycelium
Mycelium is the main nutrient-absorbing structure of the fungus. It breaks down complex organic compounds into simpler forms that the fungus can absorb and use for growth.
Fruiting Body
The primary function of the fruit body is to produce and disperse spores, the reproductive units of fungi. Spores are released into the environment to colonize new substrates and continue the life cycle of the fungus.
Proven Research
Our Mind Bloom product containing, GC Sage™, is clinically proven to enhance focus in as little as 10 minutes. Green Compass is continuing to conduct clinical trials on Mind Bloom to further validate it's efficacy.
Certificate of Analysis
We provide a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) because we care what you put in your body and know the importance of third-party validation.
Both Immune Bloom and Mind Bloom come with a CoA from one of the best third-party labs in the country, showing complete visibility into the quality of the products.
Additionally, unlike other functional mushroom products, we've included the Megazyme test to guarantee that you're getting real USA-grown organic mushrooms, free of grain fillers, pesticides, metals, solvents, or mycotoxins.
DOWNLOADEnvironmental Impact
We respect Mother Earth's resources and find ways to use them to serve our community without compromising the health of our environment. Mushrooms are one of nature's most sustainably produced resources and are beneficial to the environment.
