All our mushrooms are grown in their indigenous environment in the Far East where their great health benefits have been discovered over 4000 years ago and have been used ever since.
For over 25 years I work closely with my partners in the Far East to provide our clients with top quality raw materials. All medicinal mushrooms in MediMushooms range are grown in their indigenous climate and have never been exposed to any kind of harmful elements used to artificially enhance their growth. Also, there has been no use of any pesticides or other harmful substances at any stage.
There are no side effects. It is safe to be taken by people of any age – from babies to advanced age.
Everything is manufactured in clean green New Zealand. We import to New Zealand only the highly selected imported raw mushrooms and all the MediMushrooms products are manufactured at the MedSafe approved and certified specialised manufacturing facilities.
Strangely enough, I often get this question. These are NOT the traditional Magic Mushrooms having the hallucinogenic effect. MediMushrooms products are medicinal mushrooms that most definitely contain Magic Healing Properties.
None of MediMushrooms products have any negative effect and can be combined with other medications.
The results are significantly better when these medicinal mushrooms are taken at the stipulated dosage separately. Rather combine the varieties depending on your symptoms. You may then change the varieties accordingly. I highly recommend looking at the Symptoms Chart; use it as a guide to the symptoms as I could not possibly include them all.
MediMushrooms are not drugs. They are Dietary Supplements, so you may stop taking them at any time and start again when you feel that the effect is missing. Many of my clients are taking them for years. I am personally using these mushrooms for well over 20 years and do not intend stopping. In these cases only a “maintenance dosage” is required – 1 capsule of each once a day.
You are not alone; I have a number of clients with the same issue. Just open the capsule, it is easy to do. Empty the contents into any cereal, yogurt, smoothie, salad, any meal at all and have it this way. Just remember that Reishi is the only one that is bitter and I personally cannot take it any other way than in a capsule, though many of my clients manage to consume it with food. The rest of the MediMushrooms products have a great mushroomy/nutty taste and are very enjoyable for both kids and adults. The same applies to people that for various reasons do not wish to take capsules as such.
Please refer to our Return Policy.
No. The product is not the same.
About 10 years ago I sold the South African branch of MediMushrooms giving Fran Fainman the rights to manufacture, market and sell my MediMushrooms products in South Africa and Israel ONLY.
To ensure that the high quality expected of my products continues to be upheld and to maintain a level of consistency, I was providing the same raw materials and the formulation for each product like the one used in manufacturing in New Zealand.
Well, this is now in the past. A few years ago, Fran Fainman refused to use the raw mushrooms that we provide and started using the mushroom powder of inferior quality because it was cheaper.
As of December 2017, I no longer supply Fran Fainman in South Africa with the high quality original MediMushrooms products that have been trusted by our clients since 1998.
As a result, I do not guarantee the quality of the products she sells. The legal team is working on stopping Fainman from misrepresenting the MediMushrooms brand.

That is quite understandable as it is impossible to have all symptoms mentioned. I have personally studied over 1860 scientific research work done world wide to put this chart together, so it carries tons of credibility. The Symptoms Chart should be used only as a guide. Choose the MediMushrooms that correspond to the symptoms closest to the ones that you have. You are very welcome to contact me if you battle to make a decision.
You may safely take all 5 varieties of MediMushrooms. In this case a smaller dosage of each is sufficient as they tend to boost the properties of each other.
Most definitely I would get everyone on MediMushrooms Reishi – it is very potent and will boost the immune system tremendously. You may also add Cordyceps to improve the energy levels or Lion’s Mane for brain function, memory and concentration ability. There is no need for high dosage, just 1 capsule of each once a day is sufficient. Feel free to increase the dosage if you see the need.
The best results you would get from the combination of 2 products: Reishi and Cordyceps. Start with 2 capsules of each in the morning for 3 months, after that continue taking just 1 capsule of each for as long as you need your energy level to stay high.
Lion’s Mane with Cordyceps are most definite medimushrooms to take. You may add Reishi for better results. After 3 months you may try and eliminate one of them or rather keep taking them all but at a low dosage – 1 capsule of each a day.
Please start taking a combination of Maitake and Shiitake. You may also add any of Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps or Reishi for a few months depending on other symptoms you might have (go through Symptoms Chart) and later get back to Maitake and Shiitake at a lower dosage.
You are quite right. Cordyceps is excellent when there is impotency or any other kind of sexual dysfunction. The recommended dosage is 2 capsules twice a day for 1-2 months followed by 1 capsule twice a day for at least another 3 months. After this period, please keep taking just 1 capsule of Cordyceps once a day, it does not matter what time of the day. Best it is to have Cordyceps combined with Shiitake.
Reishi and Maitake are great for all asthma sufferers. You may give your son 1 capsule of each twice a day. There are no side effects. Keep at this dosage for minimum of 3 months. Then you can reduce to 1 capsule once a day. If after some time you see that your child was doing better on a higher dosage, then please go back to the previous one of 1 capsule of each twice a day.
Lion’s Mane and Cordyceps would be the best. As usually I recommend a higher dosage initially and after 3 months you may lower it. Observe your parents and you might find that after some time they should go back to a higher dosage again.
Yes, I would add Cordyceps at the same dosage.
I would recommend you taking Cordyceps with Shiitake together.
I have a large number of clients taking for years the combination of Maitake, Reishi and Shiitake as prevention from prostate cancer at 1 capsule of each a day. It is wise in my humble opinion.
Best results would be if you start taking the combination of the four medimushrooms - Cordyceps, Reishi, Maitake and Shiitake. A dosage of 2 capsules of each a day during first 1 to 3 months, followed by 1 capsule of each for next 6 months at least.
If you choose only 1 or 2 varieties of MediMushrooms then take minimum of 2 capsules twice a day for at least 6 months. If you are taking 3 varieties or more then take 2 capsules of each twice a day for 3 months, after that you may start taking 1 capsule of each twice a day for another 3 – 6 months. This should be followed by another 6 months of as I call it “maintenance dosage”.
I recommend that you start as soon as possible taking the following 3 MediMushrooms: Maitake, Reishi and Shiitake – 2 of each twice a day before, during and after the chemotherapy. Do your best to stay at this dosage for as long as possible, but minimum of 3 to 6 months. After this period of time you may start slowly reducing the dosage.
