Ethical Naturals has launched its MycoCalm ingredient, formulated with Nammex's mushroom extract

Ethical Naturals has introduced MycoCalm, a new proprietary ingredient formulated with Organic Red Reishi mushroom extract and AlphaWave L-Theanine, clinically proven to increase alpha brainwave activity and support calm relaxation without drowsiness. 

“MycoCalm addresses two of the fastest growing segments in the industry today: mushrooms and stress-relief,” said Cal Bewicke, President, Ethical Naturals. “These two ingredients complement each other extremely well, creating an effective solution in the high demand stress support category.”

AlphaWave L-Theanine is GRAS affirmed, and has been the subject of two clinical studies in which it significantly increased alpha brainwave activity, resulting in relaxation, and reduced nervous tension without drowsiness.

The Organic Red Reishi extract selected for MycoCalm is produced for ENI by Nammex, the North American leader in the science and production of mushroom extracts. This extract, from actual mushrooms, not mycelium or starch, is standardised for 30% Beta-D-Glucans and contains triterpenes and other naturally occurring compounds from Reishi mushroom. Red Reishi (Ganoderma lingzhi) is a core herb in Chinese traditional medicine, used for its ability to combat many kinds of stress, and to replenish the body’s energies. 

“Nammex has worked with ENI for decades and our two companies have always been aligned in defining quality by  scientific analysis,” said Jeff Chilton, Nammex President. “We are pleased to supply our Organic mushroom extracts for MycoCalm and the other products in the Mushrooms-Plus line.” 

MycoCalm is a key product in ENI’s Mushrooms-Plus line of mushroom extract formulas that also includes Ergothioniene-Plus, Lion’s Mane-Plus, and Cordyceps-Plus. These products are available in bulk powder or ready encapsulated and bottled from ENI’s cGMP certified production facility.
