Regulate your
nervous system.
Functional mushrooms aren’t a quick fix. They’re a daily practice. Taken consistently, they bioaccumulate in your system — calming your stress response, sharpening cognition, and building cellular energy from the inside out.
Dual Extraction
Every mushroom is dual-extracted using hot water and alcohol to unlock both water-soluble beta-glucans and alcohol-soluble triterpenes. You get the full spectrum of active compounds, not just what’s easy to extract.
High Concentration Ratios
Our Lion’s Mane and Cordyceps are concentrated at 12:1 — meaning 12kg of raw mushroom produces 1kg of extract. Reishi is concentrated at 14:1. This isn’t ground-up powder. It’s potent, concentrated extract.
Bioavailable & Organic
Dual extraction breaks down the chitin cell walls that your body can’t digest on its own. The result is significantly higher bioavailability — your body actually absorbs what you’re taking. Certified organic. No fillers. No grain.
Why daily compounding
changes everything.
Unlike caffeine or stimulants that spike and crash, functional mushrooms bioaccumulate. The active compounds — beta-glucans, hericenones, cordycepin, triterpenes — build up in your system over days, weeks, and months.
That’s why we built the 30-Day Loading Protocol. The first 30 days saturate your receptors and establish your baseline. But the real magic happens when you keep going. The longer you stay consistent, the deeper the compounds build and the more your body adapts. This isn’t a 30-day fix. It’s a daily practice that gets better the longer you do it.
Lion’s Mane
Lion’s Mane is the brain’s gardener. It contains two unique compounds — hericenones and erinacines — that stimulate the production of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF). NGF is essential for the growth, maintenance, and survival of neurons.
This isn’t a nootropic that gives you a temporary buzz. It’s structural cognitive support. During the loading phase, Lion’s Mane helps your brain physically build and maintain new neural pathways. Clearer thinking. Better recall. Sharper focus — not from stimulation, but from better architecture. And because NGF stimulation is cumulative, the benefits deepen the longer you stay consistent. Month two feels different to month one. Month six feels different again.
Cordyceps
Cordyceps is the biological battery. Its key active compound — cordycepin — has been shown to improve how your body utilises oxygen and produces ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the molecule your cells use for energy.
This is energy at a cellular level, not a stimulant level. No spike. No crash. During the loading phase, Cordyceps improves your body’s baseline capacity for sustained physical and mental output. Better oxygen uptake. More efficient energy production. The kind of energy that’s grounded, not wired. And it keeps building — three months in, your mitochondrial efficiency is in a different place entirely. This is long-term cellular infrastructure, not a short-term boost.
Reishi
Reishi is the emotional anchor. Known as the “mushroom of immortality” in traditional Chinese medicine, its primary active compounds are triterpenes (ganoderic acids) and beta-glucans that modulate the immune system and regulate your HPA axis — the hormonal feedback loop that governs your stress response.
Reishi lowers baseline cortisol. It supports your body’s natural sleep cycle by calming the nervous system without sedation. In the first 30 days, the triterpenes build up and you start to notice it — calmer mornings, less reactive to stress, deeper recovery at night. Stay consistent beyond the loading phase and Reishi continues to modulate your immune and hormonal systems at a deeper level. This is the one people notice most at the 90-day mark. This is why Reishi is concentrated at 14:1. The triterpenes are harder to extract, so we go further.
Not all mushroom
supplements are equal.
Most mushroom products on the market use ground-up mycelium grown on grain. That means you’re getting a lot of starch, very little active compound, and a 1:1 “concentration” that isn’t concentrated at all. Here’s how OYL is different.
OYL Mushroom Extract
- •Fruiting body only — no mycelium, no grain filler
- •Dual extracted (hot water + alcohol)
- •12:1 & 14:1 concentration ratios
- •Chitin cell walls broken down for bioavailability
- •Certified organic, 3rd party tested
Typical Mushroom Powder
- •Mycelium on grain — mostly starch
- •Single extraction or none
- •1:1 ratio — ground up, not concentrated
- •Chitin intact — poor absorption
- •Often untested, unclear sourcing
“We don’t sell mushroom powder. We sell concentrated, dual-extracted, bioavailable mushroom compounds designed to compound in your system over 30 days.”— James McCormack, Founder
