An adaptogenic or medicinal mushroom is a mushroom that, thanks to its composition, acts positively on the body. These superfoods have been used for centuries in Chinese medicine. Thanks to their active ingredients, they are able to regulate the body, control our body's responses to stress, strengthen immunity, concentration and energy, improve sleep or promote muscular well-being.

No, Mush n Go adaptogenic mushrooms are only beneficial for the body and do not create any psychotropic effects. They are completely different from hallucinogenic mushrooms and do not contain any hallucinogenic substances such as psilocybin, which is responsible for the hallucinogenic effects. In addition, our products are legal worldwide.

There are several categories of mushrooms:

Gastronomic mushrooms, which we know well, such as button mushrooms or porcini mushrooms.
Medicinal mushrooms such as Chaga, Cordyceps, Lion's Mane or Reishi.
Hallucinogenic mushrooms, which contain substances such as psilocybin, which alter the brain.
These categories of mushrooms are quite distinct and have nothing to do with each other. With Mush n Go formulas, we offer you products made exclusively from medicinal mushrooms, known for their health benefits without any harmful effects.

It all depends on each person's body and metabolism. Some people will see results after the first few days of treatment (some even during the first intake) while others will see them after a few weeks.
If necessary, you can increase your daily dose.

Yes. These mushrooms are called “adaptogens” and have several common active ingredients called polysaccharides. Thus, by consuming several cures at the same time, a synergistic effect will be created to combine all the good effects.

Yes, adaptogenic mushrooms are legal in France, as long as they are marketed in accordance with current regulations regarding dietary supplements or natural products. However, it is important to note that regulations may vary depending on how the products are marketed and the health claims associated with them.

Our formulas are declared and validated by the DGCCRF via the regulation of food supplements. Please note that this is not necessarily the case for all adaptogenic mushrooms that you find on the Internet. It is recommended to check the regulations in force and to obtain products from reputable and reliable suppliers to guarantee their quality and compliance.
