Mushrooms are regarded as a superfood, and one of the most health-promoting foods on the planet. They are packed with nutritional value, low in calories and are great sources of fibre and protein. They also provide many important nutrients, including; B vitamins, selenium, potassium, copper and vitamin D.
At Phoenix, we supply a range of mushrooms in various formats for qualified practitioners. From wholefood dried mushrooms to mushroom capsules and powdered supplements – we have something to suit everyone!
As part of our sponsorship for the BAcC Extraordinary Meridians Conference, we will be showcasing our range of mushroom products during the conference. The weekend will feature a lecture on ‘A TCM Perspective on Mushroom Nutrition for Neuodegenertive Conditions’ taught by Zuzana Vančuříková and Karel Šimonovský. We have designed a free infographic to get you in the mood for mushrooms!
Culinary Mushrooms
90% of the mushrooms we eat are white button mushrooms – but why not try something new? The Chinese have been using mushrooms such as Shiitake (Dong Gu) and Wood Ear (Mu Er) in their cooking for centuries for not only the taste but for the medicinal properties. They work great in traditional Chinese dishes, soups and stir-fries.
Just like all of our herbs, our culinary herbs are non-GMO and grown without sulphur, pesticides and herbicides so you can rest assured that you are getting the best for your health.
Phoenix Nutrition
Ling Zhi (Reishi Mushroom) has been favoured in TCM for its calming and cooling properties. 
These mushrooms are anti-inflammatory and tied to longevity, better immune function and mental clarity, earning them the nickname King of Mushrooms. It is used in Chinese medicine for its sedative, wisdom-enhancing, memory-promoting and stress-relieving effects.
Cordyceps is a fungus that traditionally lives on certain caterpillars in the high mountain regions of China. Cordyceps are extremely popular in the East, as they are believed to boost athletic performance, help with ageing and help fight inflammation.
We offer a range of mushroom products:
Phoenix Reishi and Cordyceps Capsules: Our Phoenix capsules are made from our Tianjiang Pharmaceutical Ling Zhi concentrated herbal granules. Our granules are Spray Dried and contain zero cornstarch so are 2-3 higher in concentration, compared to other granules on the market.
Raw Ling Zhi: The raw form can be used in teas, soups and food dishes to reap the rewards of the Reishi. All of our herbs are grown without sulphur, pesticides or herbicides.
Mycology Nutrition

As they are a whole food product, they are simply milled to ensure better digestibility. The range is available in both capsule and powder form to ensure it fits into your lifestyle – the powdered mushrooms can be added to shakes, smoothies or cereals. Find out more.
