Hifas da Terra

Hifas da Terra in four points

In a market where almost everyone buys mushroom powder from third parties and encapsulates it, this is a brand that cultivates, researches, and extracts. That explains almost everything else.

1. Galician biotechnology, for over 25 years

Founded by Catalina Fernández de Ana Portela and Esteban Sinde Stompel, it has been working with mushrooms for over 25 years and is part of the Hifas Group, which also brings together companies in the veterinary, biotechnological, and forestry sectors.

2. In-house cultivation and traceability

The company cultivates its own fungi, using organic farming, and performs the extraction in-house. This allows for the tracking of the journey from cultivation to the capsule, rather than depending on raw materials purchased from third parties, which is rare in this sector.

3. Beta-glucans on the label

This is the number to compare between mushroom extracts, and the brand declares it: the content of beta-glucans (1-3),(1-6). When a label only indicates milligrams of mushroom, it provides no way of knowing what is inside.

4. Species, formats, and precautions

Reishi, lion's mane, cordyceps, shiitake, maitake, chaga, polyporus, pleurotus, and agaricus, alone or combined, in capsules, powder, and syrups, including formulas for children. If you are taking anticoagulants or immunosuppressants, have an autoimmune disease, are going to undergo surgery, or are pregnant or breastfeeding, speak to your doctor before starting.
