Existe un gran debate sobre qué partes del hongo se deben utilizar para la extracción. A continuación, se ofrece una breve explicación:
En los hongos, la parte que se suele utilizar para extraer nutrientes y compuestos es el cuerpo fructífero, que es la parte visible del hongo que emerge por encima del suelo. Esto se debe a que el cuerpo fructífero contiene la mayoría de los compuestos bioactivos, incluidas vitaminas, minerales, antioxidantes y otras sustancias beneficiosas.

El cuerpo fructífero es rico en nutrientes y compuestos bioactivos porque es donde se desarrollan las estructuras reproductivas del hongo. Estas estructuras contienen diversas sustancias que el hongo necesita para su crecimiento y reproducción, así como compuestos que ayudan a defenderse de patógenos y depredadores.

Sin embargo, cabe señalar que las distintas partes del hongo pueden tener distintos perfiles nutricionales y concentraciones de compuestos bioactivos. Por ejemplo, algunos hongos también producen micelio, la red subterránea de filamentos fúngicos, que también puede contener nutrientes y compuestos valiosos. Además, ciertas especies de hongos pueden tener propiedades medicinales asociadas a partes específicas del organismo, como el micelio o incluso las esporas. Por lo tanto, la parte específica del hongo utilizada para la extracción puede depender de los nutrientes o compuestos deseados y del uso previsto.

Siempre utilizamos el cuerpo fructífero para nuestros extractos , pero también estamos trabajando en el desarrollo de extractos compuestos especiales a partir de otras partes, como el micelio y las esporas.

We use a very unique and effective dual or triple extraction process that includes enzymatic extraction, hot water extraction and even solvent extraction for certain mushrooms and/or desired compounds. This ensures that all of the beneficial nutrients are extracted from the mushroom fruiting body. It also breaks down the chitin.

Chitin is like the tough armor that mushrooms wear, similar to how insects have their exoskeletons. This armor protects the mushroom's cells, but it's tough for our bodies to break down and use as food.

For us to get the nutrients from mushrooms, we need to break down this armor into smaller, digestible parts. Enzymes called chitinases do this job. They break down the chitin into smaller pieces that our bodies can absorb and use for energy.

So, without breaking down chitin, we can't get the nutrients from mushrooms.
