Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our functional mushroom products, ingredients, ordering, and more.
About Our Products
What are functional mushroom chocolates?
Our chocolates combine premium cacao with concentrated mushroom extracts like Lion's Mane, Reishi, Cordyceps, and Chaga. Each variety is formulated to support specific benefits such as focus, calm, energy, or immunity, delivered in a delicious daily ritual.
Will these make me feel high?
No. Our products contain zero psilocybin and no psychoactive compounds. Functional mushrooms are adaptogens that support your body's natural processes. You may notice improved focus, better sleep, or sustained energy depending on the variety, but there is no intoxicating effect.
How should I store my chocolates?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ideal temperature is between 60 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Refrigeration is fine but may cause slight surface bloom, which does not affect taste or potency. Each package is resealable for freshness.
Are your products vegan and gluten free?
Yes. All Mushroom Alchemy products are plant-based, vegan, gluten free, and made without artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. We use organic cacao and natural sweeteners in every recipe.
How long before I notice results?
Many customers report feeling subtle benefits within the first week. For full adaptogenic effects, we recommend consistent daily use for at least 2 to 4 weeks. Functional mushrooms work best as part of a regular wellness routine.
Ingredients
Where are your mushrooms sourced?
Our mushrooms are sustainably cultivated on organic hardwood substrates by certified growers in the Pacific Northwest. We prioritize domestic sourcing for quality control and environmental responsibility.
What does Lion's Mane do?
Lion's Mane (Hericium erinaceus) is renowned for supporting cognitive function, memory, and mental clarity. Research suggests it promotes nerve growth factor production, which supports brain health and neuroplasticity over time.
What is Reishi used for?
Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) is known as the "mushroom of immortality" in traditional medicine. It supports stress resilience, sleep quality, and immune function. It promotes a sense of calm without drowsiness.
Do you use fruiting body or mycelium extracts?
We use dual-extracted fruiting body concentrates, which contain significantly higher levels of beneficial beta-glucans and triterpenes compared to mycelium-on-grain products. This ensures maximum potency in every serving.
Are your ingredients third-party tested?
Yes. Every batch is tested by independent laboratories for potency, purity, heavy metals, pesticides, and microbial contamination. Certificates of analysis are available upon request.
