Reishi, Shiitake, Maitake, Sun and Chaga Mushrooms Mico-Five · Hifas da Terra | 70 capsules

Why we selected it

Mico-Five by Hifas da Terra is a five-mushroom organic extract complex — Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum), Maitake (Grifola frondosa), Shiitake (Lentinula edodes), Sun Mushroom (Agaricus blazei) and Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) — combined with vitamin C from acerola in vegetable capsules. Every mushroom is extracted from the fruiting body only, using Green Extraction Technology Hifas® dual-phase extraction, and certified organic by the CAAE. No mycelium, no grain substrate, no starch fillers — five pure, concentrated extracts in a single daily capsule.

Each of the five mushrooms brings a distinct and complementary profile of bioactive compounds. Together they deliver the broadest possible spectrum of medicinal mushroom bioactives in a single product.

This is the formula for people who want comprehensive, broad-spectrum mushroom support rather than a targeted single-mushroom intervention. If you are new to medicinal mushroom supplementation and are not sure which species is right for you — Mico-Five is an excellent starting point. If you are an experienced user who wants to consolidate your immune, antioxidant, metabolic and adaptogenic support into one convenient daily capsule instead of several separate products — this is that product. It is particularly well suited to people who feel their immune system, energy balance and oxidative resilience all need support simultaneously, especially during autumn and winter, periods of high stress or travel, or as a year-round foundation for long-term immune health. Mico-Five covers all of these bases at once.

The vitamin C from acerola contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress* — an EFSA-authorised claim that reinforces the antioxidant dimension of the chaga and polyphenol-rich extracts in the formula.

Hifas da Terra independently tests every batch for beta-glucan content across all five extracts, absence of starch and absence of heavy metals. With over 25 years of specialisation in medicinal mushrooms from their own laboratory in Galicia, they are the brand we trust to execute a multi-extract formula with this level of complexity at verified quality.

Vitamin C contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. All mushrooms in this formula are described according to their traditional use.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is Mico-Five and which mushrooms does it contain?
Mico-Five is an organic five-mushroom fruiting body extract complex by Hifas da Terra, containing: Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum), Maitake (Grifola frondosa), Shiitake (Lentinula edodes), Sun Mushroom (Agaricus blazei) and Chaga (Inonotus obliquus), plus vitamin C from acerola. Each mushroom is extracted from the fruiting body using Green Extraction Technology Hifas® dual-phase extraction — capturing both water-soluble and alcohol-soluble bioactive compounds from every species. All five extracts are CAAE-certified organic.

Why does Mico-Five combine five different mushrooms rather than one?
Each of these five mushrooms contains a structurally distinct set of bioactive compounds — different beta-glucan architectures, unique triterpenes, species-specific polysaccharides — that do not overlap. Reishi provides ganoderic acid triterpenes. Maitake adds the D-fraction polysaccharide complex. Shiitake contributes Lentinan and Eritadenine. Sun Mushroom delivers one of the highest beta-glucan densities found in any edible mushroom. Chaga brings melanin, betulinic acid and a rich polyphenol matrix. A formula with all five offers a significantly broader spectrum of bioactive compounds than any single mushroom extract can provide.

When should I choose Mico-Five and when would I choose a single-mushroom product instead?
Mico-Five is ideal when you want broad-spectrum support — immune resilience, antioxidant protection, adaptogenic balance and metabolic health all covered by one product. It is the best entry point for people new to medicinal mushrooms, and a practical consolidation tool for experienced users managing multiple products. Choose a single-mushroom product when you have a specific priority: for example, Mico-Leo (Lion's Mane) for cognitive function, Mico-Cord (Cordyceps) for athletic performance, or Mico-Rei (Reishi) for sleep and hormonal balance. Single extracts allow higher, more targeted doses of one specific mushroom; Mico-Five offers breadth.

What is the Sun Mushroom (Agaricus blazei) and why is it included?
Agaricus blazei — known as the Sun Mushroom or Cogumelo do Sol — originates in the Brazilian Atlantic rainforest, where it has been used in traditional folk medicine for generations. It contains some of the highest concentrations of beta-glucans found in any edible mushroom species, including structurally unique polysaccharides not found in the other four species in this formula. Its inclusion in Mico-Five adds both beta-glucan density and biochemical diversity that none of the other four mushrooms replicate.

What does Mico-Five support? Who is it best suited to?
Based on its product tags and the traditional use of each mushroom: immune resilience, antioxidant protection, cellular longevity and metabolic balance. It suits people who want comprehensive year-round immune and antioxidant support — particularly during demanding seasons (autumn, winter), periods of high travel or stress, or as a long-term longevity foundation. 

Is Mico-Five suitable for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes. The capsules are plant-based (HPMC) and all ingredients are of plant and fungal origin. Mico-Five contains no gluten, dairy, soy or GMOs, and carries CAAE organic certification.

What certifications does Mico-Five hold?
Mico-Five is certified organic by the CAAE (Comité Andaluz de Agricultura Ecológica). Every production batch is independently tested to verify beta-glucan content across all five extracts, absence of starch (confirming no mycelium on grain substrate) and absence of heavy metals and contaminants. The product is manufactured at Hifas da Terra's own facilities in Galicia, Spain.
