It contains cordyceps, maitake, reishi, shiitake, and cordyceps extract, along with gelatin, rice flour, silicon dioxide, and vegetable magnesium stearate. The serving is two capsules.

Is this mushroom complex vegan?

No. The capsule is made from gelatin, so it is not vegan or vegetarian.

The label directs adults to take two capsules daily, preferably with a meal. Consult a healthcare provider before starting any new supplement.

Does it contain any allergens?

The formula includes no common allergens like gluten, soy, or dairy, but it does contain gelatin. Check the full label if you have specific sensitivities.
