  • A wealth of potential hormonal balance benefits may be found in Grifola frondosa, commonly known as the maitake mushroom. Packed with beta-glucans and polysaccharides, this fungus could improve insulin sensitivity, helping to keep blood sugar levels steady—an essential aspect of hormonal harmony. Maitake’s ability to reduce inflammation and bolster immune function might also lighten the load on the endocrine system, possibly assisting in the regulation of hormones such as cortisol and estrogen. Though direct proof tying maitake to specific hormonal pathways remains scarce, its adaptogenic qualities hint at its capacity to help the body cope with stress and sustain homeostasis, offering indirect support for hormonal well-being.
  • Several physiological processes tied to hormonal balance may be supported by Grifola frondosa, widely recognized as the maitake mushroom. Its bioactive compounds, including beta-glucans, could enhance insulin sensitivity, aiding in the regulation of blood glucose levels—an essential factor for consistent hormone production and function. Furthermore, the anti-inflammatory and adaptogenic properties of maitake might mitigate stress-related disturbances in the endocrine system, potentially stabilizing hormones like cortisol while promoting overall resilience.
  • Weight management may find a powerful ally in Grifola frondosa, better known as the maitake mushroom, thanks to its distinctive bioactive properties. By enhancing insulin sensitivity and stabilizing blood sugar levels, it could improve glucose metabolism, helping to prevent excess fat storage—a critical element in maintaining a healthy weight. The polysaccharides in maitake might also boost fat metabolism and curb inflammation, potentially reducing body fat buildup. Emerging research even hints that it could suppress appetite or elevate energy expenditure, offering additional support for weight control.
  • Stress management can benefit significantly from Grifola frondosa, commonly called the maitake mushroom, thanks to its adaptogenic and immune-supporting qualities. By aiding the body in adapting to stressors and preserving homeostasis, it could help lower cortisol levels, easing the physical and mental strain of chronic stress. The beta-glucans and polysaccharides in maitake may also strengthen immune function, which often falters under extended stress, while its capacity to steady blood sugar levels could ward off energy dips that heighten tension.

Why Organic Farmacy

Australian Grown Medicinal Mushrooms

Our medicinal mushrooms are proudly grown in our vertical mushroom farm located in Sydney, Australia. We are committed to providing our customers with the highest quality product, and that's why we never import our mushrooms.

Sadly, 99% of Australian suppliers import their mushrooms from China. These imported mushrooms have been shown to contain pesticides, toxins, and heavy metals. By choosing our Australian-grown mushrooms, you can be sure that you are getting mushrooms that are free from harmful chemicals and toxins.

Nutrient Packed

Chitin is a polysaccharide that is found in the cell walls of fungi, including mushrooms. Humans do not produce the enzyme chitinase, which is needed to break down chitin. As a result, chitin is not digested in the human digestive system.

We immediately heat our mushrooms this kills any bacteria and breaks down the chitin, making the mushroom digestible for humans in turn increasing their nutrient benefit. We finalise the process by freeze drying. This process is superior to freeze-drying alone, as it results in a more digestible and nutritious product.

No Fillers, Extracts or Alcohol

Unlike other suppliers we don't use extracts, fillers or dilute our mushrooms in alcohol. Organic Farmacy only utilises 100% fruiting body. Others rave about the benefits of added mycelium but in fact recent studies have shown that mycelium contains lower levels of bioactive compounds than fruiting bodies.

We believe our customers deserve to get the most nutrient rich and effective medicinal mushrooms. Dont pay for the privilege of consuming brown rice flour (what mycelium is grown on) or extracts bathed in ethanol!

Organically Grown

Our organic vertical farm ensures our mushrooms are grown without the use of harmful chemicals, pesticides, or growth regulators. This means that you can enjoy the best possible medicinal mushroom products, knowing that they are free from any potential contaminants.

We believe that the best way to grow mushrooms is naturally, without the use of artificial inputs. This results in medicinal mushrooms that are packed with nutrients and what makes Organic Farmacy mushrooms the most effective on the market.

Maitake Mushroom FAQ

Maitake, scientifically known as Grifola frondosa, is a type of edible mushroom native to parts of Asia, Europe, and North America. Commonly referred to as "hen of the woods," "sheep’s head," or "dancing mushroom," it grows in clusters at the base of trees, particularly oaks, and has a distinctive feathery, frond-like appearance. Its name "maitake" comes from Japanese, meaning "dancing mushroom," possibly due to its rippling shape or a legend that people danced with joy upon finding it because of its value.

Maitake's Benefits are as follows:
  • Cholesterol & Heart Health

  • Blood Sugar Regulation
  • Hormonal Regulation
  • Menopause Relief
  • Weight Management

Organic Farmacy has two convenient ways for Maitake to be taken.

  • Capsules - Simply swallow with a glass of water or a cold beverage.

  • Powder - Simply add to coffee, teas, drinks, or foods.

    • Drinks: Add powder to your drink of choice and stir until dissolved.

    • Food: Add powder to foods such as smoothies, soups, stews or yogurt.

For Powder: Mix 1-2 scoops into your favorite drink or food

For Capsules: 2-4 Capusles per day.

 

Grifola frondosa, or maitake mushroom, is generally considered safe for most people when consumed as a food or supplement, but like many natural remedies, it can cause side effects in some cases. Commonly reported ones include mild digestive issues, such as nausea, upset stomach, or diarrhea, especially if taken in large amounts or by those unaccustomed to it. Allergic reactions, though rare, are possible and might manifest as skin rashes, itching, or difficulty breathing in sensitive individuals.

HPMC capsules, also known as vegetarian or vegan capsules, are made from Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC). This is a plant-derived polymer originating from cellulose, a natural component found in the cell walls of plants.
 
Unlike gelatin capsules (made from animal collagen), HPMC capsules are 100% plant-based, making them suitable for vegetarians, vegans, and those with dietary or religious restrictions.
