Medicinal mushrooms for dogs and cats

Every day you ask us about the benefits of medicinal mushrooms, and those of you who have tried them know that they work wonders for our dogs and cats. Well, we are going to focus on each of the mushrooms we work with so that you can see their super properties in detail.

Super Shrooms is our most complete supplement, composed of 7 organic medicinal mushrooms: chaga, cordyceps, lion's mane, turkey tail, shiitake, maikate and reishi. Turkey Tail and Lion's Roar are made up of a single mushroom, turkey tail and lion's mane respectively. Super Snouts isolated these mushrooms in a supplement to enhance their benefits individually.

The mixture of these mushrooms allows you to create a very effective combination such as immune system modulator (both as a preventative measure and for pets with immune system problems) thanks to beta-glucans. By regulating the immune system, it strengthens it when it is low and balances it when it is high. In this way, it helps to have the body more resistant and prepared with a immune system that works better and more effectively against infections, parasites and diseases. Super Shrooms contain bioactive compounds that have the ability to neutralize toxins, promote protective enzymes and decrease oxidative stress.

Their benefits stand out for cardiovascular health and the effects on the nervous system and connective tissue. They are especially indicated for senior dogs , for helping with bones and joints, for its strong antioxidant load and for having mushrooms that help the liver and kidney function better.

Well, let's go on to list the properties of each mushroom separately:
