FAQs
What makes your products unique?
Our formulas are biotechnology-based, developed through standardized submerged fermentation in the lab. This allows us to work with live mycelium, not fruiting bodies, and obtain high concentrations of active compounds without the use of solvents or high heat. We preserve the integrity of the bioactive system's such as fungi's natural chemistry while enhancing its functional power.
Are the ingredients you use certified organic?
We do not currently pursue organic certification, as our production process is lab-based and operates under rigorous controls. We use no synthetic or chemical additives, and our cultivation methods meet high-quality standards in collaboration with academic institutions in Mexico.
Can I use your products if I’m pregnant, breastfeeding, or for children?
We recommend avoiding use during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or for children unless under medical supervision. Our formulas work as immune modulators, and immune function can shift significantly during these stages.
Where are your ingredients grown?
This is something deeply important for us. All of our products are developed in Mexico, using lab-grown mycelium cultures with full traceability. We work in collaboration with mycological research institutes such as the Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Morelos, ensuring quality, safety, and consistency at every stage.
What’s the difference between your Functional Formulas and Single Fungi Formulas?
Our Single Fungi Formulas are focused, with a single fungi designed to support specific functions like focus, rest, or immune support. Our Functional Formulas combine multiple fungi to create synergistic systems that offer preventive, foundational support across multiple body systems.
Are your fungi psychoactive?
No. None of our products contain psychoactive compounds.
When should I take Micelia products?
Our products are designed to be flexible and adapt to your rhythm. Consistency is key. Find what works best for your routine.
Should I worry about taking too much?
Our products are not dosed by milligram strength but by the presence and activity of compounds. There is no established risk of “overdosing,” but we recommend not exceeding the suggested daily amount (30 drops) to maintain balance and ensure optimal effect.
What is the shelf life of your products?
Our extracts and blends have a shelf life of 8 months once opened. To preserve their integrity, keep them in a cool place, so every drop delivers its full potential.
What are functional fungi—and how are they different from culinary mushrooms?
Functional mushrooms are fungi that have been studied for their bioactive compounds that support immune, cognitive, metabolic, or emotional health. Unlike common culinary mushrooms, functional varieties like Lion’s Mane, Reishi, Cordyceps, and Turkey Tail contain higher concentrations of compounds like beta-glucans, triterpenes, and cordycepin—used traditionally and clinically for system-level support.
