At Blue Cap Farms we love all things fungi. They’re the oldest living organisms on our planet. We believe mushrooms hold the answer to improved health, a sustainable food source, and a better world. Lion's Mane, arguably has the best flavor and texture, boasts a powerhouse of nutrients with immune boosting and neuroprotective properties. They are also excellent at absorbing tasty flavors, which makes them a perfect vehicle for our premium vegan jerky. In the hands of our chef, we have crafted the most flavorful and exciting mushroom jerky. Food has long been considered a separate category to medicine, but if you can eat for your health, we believe it to be better than swallowing a pill. So, when we say let food be your medicine, we really mean it!
We believe this in a preventative sense, and in no way advocate disregarding healthcare professionals.

Functional Mushroom, What's your Function?
Functional mushrooms, also known as medicinal mushrooms, are a group of fungi that offer various health benefits due to their unique chemical composition and bioactive compounds. Lion's Mane fall into this category. These mushrooms have been used for centuries in traditional medicine, particularly in Asian cultures, for their potential therapeutic properties. Lion's Mane mushrooms, scientifically known as Hericium erinaceus, offer several potential health benefits due to their rich nutritional composition and bioactive compounds. Lion's Mane mushrooms are a great source of antioxidants, which help combat oxidative stress and reduce inflammation in the body, potentially lowering the risk of chronic diseases. Studies suggest that Lion's Mane mushrooms may have neuroprotective properties, promoting the growth and repair of nerve cells and potentially benefiting cognitive function and mental health. These mushrooms are also believed to support digestive health by enhancing the growth of beneficial gut bacteria and protecting the stomach lining from damage caused by certain factors. Lion's Mane mushrooms have been traditionally used in some cultures to support the immune system and improve overall immune function. Additionally, preliminary research indicates that Lion's Mane mushrooms may have potential anticancer properties.
