why this bundle

  • two products, one habit

    turkey tail 8:1 and immune complex

  • 100% fruiting body

    all the mushroom itself, no mycelium or grain

  • two Health Canada NPNs

    NPN 80112726 and NPN 80108542

  • organic, non-GMO, vegan

    hypromellose capsules, nothing else added

in short

  • what it is

    Turkey tail 8:1 and immune complex: two bottles, six fruiting-body extracts, one a 4,000 mg dried-mushroom equivalent per capsule, the other five mushrooms in one.

  • how it fits a day

    One of each with breakfast, at home or in a carry-on. Same time each day, sixty days.

  • where it comes from

    Turkey tail from the fallen hardwoods and five forest mushrooms with long East Asian histories, all sourced as fruiting body alone.

why Purana

A Purana immune complex bottle tossed in the air above an open hand on a beach

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 grain 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 for a Vancouver company. Inputs are tested for heavy metals, pesticides and microbes. Nothing added that a label would have to explain.

how we compare

feature Purana travel bundle a typical mushroom supplement
mushroom part 100% fruiting body, both bottles often mycelium grown on grain, grain included
concentration 8:1 dual extract; 16:1, 8:1 and 1:1 extracts often 1:1, or an unconcentrated powder
extraction hot water and organic grain alcohol often hot water only, or none
actives named and tested polysaccharides over 40% (turkey tail); beta-glucans around 30% (immune complex) often no percentages and no named compounds
the capsule hypromellose, nothing else often fillers or flow agents
Health Canada NPN NPN 80112726 and NPN 80108542 look for an NPN on the label
supply per bottle 60 days at one of each often 30 days

“Typical” describes practices that are common across mushroom supplements sold in North America. It is not a comparison with any named brand, and products vary. Hold any label against these rows.

what to expect

Mushroom extracts work through slow biology. The habit is the product. Here is the shape of the first two months.

  1. day 1

    start with food

    One of each with breakfast. Nothing to feel yet, and that is normal: the first days are about the habit, not a sensation.

  2. week 2

    the habit holds

    Same time, same meal. By now the routine is part of the meal rather than a decision. Keep going.

  3. day 30

    the research window opens

    Most human trials of these mushrooms run four to twelve weeks of daily use. Notice how your days are going.

  4. day 60

    one bottle, your own evidence

    A full set is sixty days of daily use. Decide on that, not on a week. If it has earned its place, reorder or subscribe.

Effects are built, not switched on. This is guidance on consistency, not a promise of results.
