how we compare
hold any label against these rows
Most mushroom supplements in North America are mycelium grown on grain, with the grain left in. Here is the difference.

"Typical" describes practices common across mushroom supplements sold in North America. It is not a comparison with any named brand, and products vary.
why Purana
every label says the same few things
Every Purana label says the same few things, and each one was a decision. Here is what they mean.
the mushroom, not the mycelium
100% fruiting body, sourced to our own standards for potency and purity. The substrate a mushroom is grown on never makes it into a Purana capsule.
concentrated, then named
Our 8:1, 10:1 and 16:1 dual extracts name their compounds, and every input batch is tested for potency and purity.
a Health Canada NPN for every formula
Each product was reviewed by Health Canada, formula, manufacturing and claims, and issued its own Natural Product Number, printed on the label and linked on this page.
Canadian, and plain about it
Organic, non-GMO and vegan, made in a GMP-certified facility in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Inputs are tested for heavy metals, pesticides and microbes. Nothing added that a label would have to explain.
your ritual
simple enough to keep
one capsule
Once daily, with food.
with breakfast
Or your morning coffee. Same time each day.
sixty days
One bottle, one full habit. Decide on that.
what to expect
effects are built, not switched on
Mushroom extracts work through slow biology. The habit is the product. Here is the shape of the first two months.
- Day 1
start with food
Nothing to feel yet, and that is normal. The first days are about the habit, not a sensation.
- Week 2
the habit holds
Same time, same meal. By now the capsule is part of breakfast rather than a decision.
- Day 30
the research window opens
Most human trials run four to twelve weeks of daily use. Notice how your days are going.
- Day 60
your own evidence
A full bottle is sixty days. If it has earned its place, reorder or subscribe.

short answers
questions we get all the time
01lion's mane 1:1 or 8:1 — which one is for me?
The 1:1 is the whole fruiting body, hot-water extracted and not concentrated. The 8:1 is a dual extract concentrated eight times, which also concentrates compounds such as hericenones. Many people take both; the ultimate lion's mane bundle has all three formats.
02fruiting body or mycelium?
Fruiting body only. The fruiting body is the mushroom itself. Mycelium is the root-like network it grows from, usually cultivated on grain, and mycelium products often contain that grain. There is no mycelium, grain or filler in a Purana capsule.
03when should I take it?
One capsule once daily, with food. Most people take it with breakfast or their morning coffee, at the same time each day.
04what is in the capsule besides the extract?
The extract, and a hypromellose capsule shell (plant-derived, vegan). No fillers, flow agents or additives.
05does it have a Health Canada NPN?
Yes. NPN 80108521, issued by Health Canada after a review of the formula, the manufacturing and the claims.
06can I take it with medications?
Talk with your health care practitioner before starting any supplement, especially if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, taking medication, or managing a health condition.
