What do the ancient Greeks, Haida, and Chinese have in common?
Three mushrooms from the Ancients have been reborn and combined in a synergistic formulation: LifeShield® Throat Defense™.
Our Ancestors Speak. Shall we listen?
Agarikon (Formitopsis officinalis):
Hidden deep in the verdant, old growth forests of the Pacific Northwest, this elusive and still mysterious mushroom has been rediscovered for its LifeShield properties. Used by Europeans for more than 2,000 years, from the time of Dioscorides and before, and independently revered by the Haida First Peoples of British Columbia, recent studies have found this mushroom to have powerful immunoactive effects against airborne elements.*
Birch Polypore (Piptoporus betulinus): The Ice Man Cometh, and when he traveled into the Alps more than 5,000 years ago, he knew that this mushroom protected his life from the ravages of nature. Traditionally used for fighting parasites, this mushroom has yielded several natural protective compounds, including betulinic acids and other constituents unified to form an immunoactive matrix of nutrients.*
Red Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum): Borne from Chinese Acacia trees, this mushroom, an elegant display of grace and beauty, has long been admired and heralded by Asians for thousands of years as the Mushroom of Immortality.* Once only the privilege of Emperors, we bring this mushroom into companionship with two other fungal elders. The way of life is synergism of allies: In this vein, we combine the most potent of mushrooms to help support immune function and LifeShield.*
Why Organic Mushrooms?
Our bodies understand - and seek - organic nourishment, for organic foods deliver the ideal form of essential micronutrients that allow us to thrive. Our Earth understands - and celebrates - organic cultivation, which reduces the burden of the toxic “ides” - pesticides, fungicides, and herbicides. And our organic mushrooms understand and speak your language - the language of
life itself.
New Chapter Activated Organic Mushrooms from Paul Stamets deliver the profoundly healing traditional mushrooms in their organic mycelial form, easiest to digest and richest in potent myconutrients. They are the supreme expression of mushrooms’ protective and healing intelligence and are rich in Glycoproteins, Arabinoxylanes, Ergosterols, and Broad Spectrum 1,3 & 1,6 B-Glucans.
New Chapter Activated Organic Mushrooms are the finest traditional mushrooms grown anywhere in the world, and are the only commercially available mushrooms with a Certified P-Value. P-Value is a scientific term for the genetic integrity of the mushroom, assuring that the mushroom mycelium is genetically identical to the original mushroom that gave it birth, and carries all of its genetic energy and healing force. Mushrooms not grown in such a rigorous potency-assured manner may be hundreds of generations distant from the purity of their genetic heritage, and thus suffer genetic degeneration and a lack of vitality. We ensure that all New Chapter Activated Organic Mushrooms have the lowest possible P-Value closest to the genetic origins of the nature-born specimens or the wild genome.
