Turkey Tail Mushroom Tincture

Turkey Tail (Trametes versicolor) is a type of medicinal mushroom known for its vibrant, colourful appearance that resembles the tail feathers of a wild turkey. It has been used in traditional medicine, particularly in Asia, for centuries due to its immune supporting attributes.

Turkey Tail mushrooms contain naturally occurring polysaccharides, especially beta-glucans, known to maintain support of immune activity. These compounds help stimulate immune cells like macrophages and natural killer (NK) cells, which play a key role in supporting the body’s natural defences.

Turkey Tail mushrooms contain a variety of antioxidants, including polyphenols and flavonoids, which can help reduce oxidative stress and protect cells from free radical damage.

Turkey Tail has a mild, earthy flavour with slightly woody notes. In tincture form, it’s extracted into organic grain alcohol, which results in a bold, herbal taste with a slightly bitter finish. If the flavour is too strong on its own, it can easily be mixed into water, tea, or other drinks for a smoother experience.

KÄÄPÄ Mushrooms stands out due to its ultrasonic-assisted extraction, which ensures a highly bioavailable tincture with a potent concentration of active compounds.

The mushrooms are cultivated in the pristine air and pure waters of Finland, ensuring exceptional quality. Every batch is fully traceable through a QR code on the packaging, providing batch-specific data and transparency on active compound levels— rarely offered by other brands.

For daily support of overall health and well-being, we recommend taking 2ml (equivalent to 2x half pipettes) directly under the tongue or mixed into smoothies, tea, or coffee. If needed, you can increase your intake to 4ml (4x half pipettes) per day.

If you are considering a dose higher than 4ml for a specific purpose, we advise consulting your GP before use.

Turkey Tail is best taken in the morning or during the day to support immune health and gut function. It can be taken with or without food, depending on what fits your routine.

Our tinctures come in Miron glass bottles, which protect the extract from light exposure, preserving potency. It is advisable to still keep stored in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat.

Unfortunately, due to the high cost of Miron glass packaging, organic mushroom cultivation, and advanced extraction processes, we are unable to offer free samples currently.

Turkey Tail is generally considered safe for most people. However, individuals with mushroom allergies, those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or anyone taking medication for ongoing health conditions should consult a healthcare professional before using Turkey Tail.

Turkey Tail may interact with certain medications, particularly those that affect the immune system or blood clotting. If you are taking any prescription medication, it’s important to speak with your doctor before use.

Our tinctures are free from common allergens such as gluten, dairy, and soy. However, individuals with mushroom allergies should avoid using them. Depending on the mushroom species, there may be trace amounts of spelt from the early growth stages.

Turkey Tail is generally considered safe, but there is limited research on its effects in children. We recommend consulting a healthcare professional before giving it to anyone under 18.
