Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our products and the science behind them.
Do you offer bulk or wholesale?
Yes, we do offer bulk and wholesale orders. Please reach out to us through our contact page for pricing, minimum order quantities, and more details.
What is dual extraction?
Dual extraction uses both hot water and alcohol (ethanol) to pull different classes of bioactive compounds from the mushroom. Hot water extracts beta-glucans and polysaccharides; alcohol extracts triterpenes, sterols, and other lipid-soluble compounds. A true dual extract captures both, a single extraction product misses half the picture.
What's the difference between fruiting body and mycelium?
The fruiting body is the actual mushroom. Mycelium is the root like network. Most cheap supplements use mycelium grown on grain. You're getting mostly grain starch, not mushroom. All BKW products use 100% fruiting body.
What does 8:1 concentration mean?
An 8:1 extraction ratio means 8 pounds of raw dried mushroom was used to produce 1 pound of finished extract powder. This concentrates the active compounds significantly.
Are your products third-party tested?
Yes. Every batch is tested by an independent laboratory for heavy metals, beta-glucan content, microbial contaminants, and pesticide residues.
How do I use BKW mushroom powders?
Add 1g (1 scoop) to hot water, coffee, tea, smoothies, or food. Flavors are mild and earthy. They blend seamlessly into most beverages.
Are your products vegan and non-GMO?
Yes. All BKW products are all natural, vegan, non-GMO, with no artificial additives, sweeteners, fillers, or preservatives.
When should I expect to feel results?
Most customers report noticeable effects within 2–4 weeks of daily use. Lion's Mane effects on focus are often felt earlier; Reishi's sleep benefits typically develop over 1–2 weeks.
Are there recommended stacks for certain goals?
A few popular combinations:
- Focus & energy: Lion's Mane + Cordyceps (morning)
- Stress & sleep: Reishi (evening), optionally with Lion's Mane
- Immune support: Chaga + Reishi (any time)
- Everything, simplified: Total Wellness -five fruiting bodies in one daily serving
Standard serving is 1g per mushroom; most people land between 1–3g total per day across their stack.
