Why Umbra Organics?

On my journey into functional mushrooms, I found some brands
weren't living up to their promises of 100% fruiting body extracts. Instead,
they were using mycelium, which lacks the powerful benefits of the fruiting
body. That's why I founded Umbra Organics, a brand committed to honesty and
sourcing top-quality, potent organic whole food ingredients we can all benefit
from.
