Derived from mushrooms grown in Finland, KÄÄPÄ Health’s extracts aim to support your health and wellbeing. Founded in 2018, the company is the largest medicinal mushroom grower in the EU and recently won the Start-up Award in the NutraIngredients Awards 2021. KÄÄPÄ Health utilises the beneficial properties of five mushrooms: chaga (inonotus obliquus), lion’s mane (hericium erinaceus), reishi (ganoderma lucidum), shiitake (lentinula edodes) and maitake (grifola frondosa). Grown on sustainable Finnish birch substrate (except chaga, which is wild harvested), the mushrooms are extracted via ultrasonic-assisted extraction, which ensures optimal bioavailability and high amounts of the compounds of interest, such as beta-glucans. Find out how these mushroom extracts can help you at kaapahealth.com. Use the code “HEALTH2022” to enjoy a 20 per cent discount. Offer valid until 30 April 2022.

Alkyrol is a unique, all-natural purified shark liver oil, without fats and impurities, that still contains 20 per cent alkylglycerols.
