Why is this the best Turkey Tail in Australia?
1. Firstly, it’s grown in Australia – that’s pretty epic. Mushrooms are highly absorbent. They will absorb the heavy metals and toxins from the environment in which they are in. If they are grown in polluted areas or with unclean water they can be dangerous to consume.
2. Our Victorian mushrooms have a superior drying process: Our Turkey Tail mushrooms are not just grown in the pollution-free Victoria; but they are also freeze dried in Victoria. Freeze drying is the most superior form of drying. It allows for a much more nutrient dense product that is almost identical to the fresh form of the product. The cost is far greater which is why many imported Turkey Tail mushrooms are spray dried.
3. These mushrooms contain the potent mycelium (the mushroom’s life force). Our Turkey Tail includes the mycelium of the mushroom (the “roots” of the mushroom below the surface) not just the fruiting body. World-renowned mycologists like Paul Stamets believe a lot of the benefits of Turkey Tail are contained in the mycelium.
4. A whole food – and nothing else: An extract contains mostly alcohol or water with small amounts of the water-soluble parts of the mushroom. Our Turkey Tail is the entire ground mushroom (so you have a product as close to its natural state as possible).

What’s so good about Turkey Tail?
This amazing mushroom is known for its incredible immune activating properties and reduced inflammation thanks to the 35 phenol and flavonoid antioxidants it contains. It also contains powerful polysaccharopeptides which further support your immune system. It contains Krestin which has been shown to be effective at reducing the spread of some diseases and boosting the effectiveness of chemotherapy in some studies – but more research is needed. There is also some evidence to show it can improve your gut health as it contains prebiotics, as well as playing a role in the treatment of breast cancer. Turkey Tail has been shown to increase populations of beneficial bacteria such as Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus.
Used to support the immune system & for post surgery recovery…
According to one study, “Numerous in vitro and in vivo studies show enhancement of immune functions, antiviral effects, and cholesterol-regulating effects, among others. New clinical trials demonstrate improved quality of life after surgery and in combination with chemotherapy, as well as extended 5- and 10-year survival rates, especially for patients with colorectal and stomach…”Read the studyIngredients: Turkey Tail Mushroom (Trametes versicolor), Mushroom Substrate (brown rice traces & mycelium).
I'm serious about quality.
"I started this business almost a decade ago to give people a natural way to improve their health. If at anytime you think this product is not of the highest quality, I insist that you return it for a refund."
- Justin Snyder (Founder & CEO)
Why our mushrooms contain minute traces of brown rice..
The brown rice is the growing medium and most of it is consumed by the mushroom during the growing period. However the mycelium can not be separated from the brown rice entirely which is why there is some brown rice in the finished product.
Whilst it is more complicated (and expensive) process for us to include the mycelium in the finished product, we feel it is essential to provide the best quality product we can.
This is inline with the findings of medicinal mushroom experts such as Paul Stamets.Don’t take our word for it! Check out this scientific study that “once again confirms that not only the mycelium but the substrate on which it is grown becomes profoundly immune enhancing.”
Why we don’t sell extracts..
An extract requires the removal of some parts of the mushroom in preference for others.
“In my scientific opinion, mushroom products not incorporating mycelium are at a decided disadvantage” – Paul Stamets World Renowned Mycologist (read this blog post to find out why we always incorporate mycelium into our products)
When you isolate a compound from a wholefood you remove components that assist the body with the absorption and digestion of the mushroom. In our experience, it is most beneficial to consume the wholefood, as close to the natural state of the mushroom as possible.
The argument competitors make for selling extracts is that the chitin is not easily broken down during digestion. Our mushrooms are heated prior to powdering (to remove bacteria) and this is more than sufficient to break down the cell wall so the chitin is bioavailable.
Paul Stamets discusses his experience in using Turkey Tail to treat his mother as well as scientific studies that support his findings.

Wow along with lions main and reishi I am a power house. Bought some for my friend who is on heavy meds for immune deficiency. She messaged me the other day and said she had never felt better in 4 years. I was so blown away as I know how much she suffers. I take mine everyday along with the others. My skin my hair and omg my nails are like weapons 😅. Not only this when I work my nighshifts I sleep better and wake feeling refreshed

I purchased this after I noticed a work colleague seemed less anxious. I didn’t realise how bad my agitation/anxiety/irritability was until I started taking these. After a week I noticed the restlessness during the night had lessened and instead of tossing and turning all night and stressing about things when I woke up during the night, I found I was able to get straight back to sleep. Wish I had bought these sooner. I feel like a new person. My chronic back pain has also eased. I am taking a combination of Lions mane, reishi mushroom and turkey tail for 3 weeks so far.

I bought Turkey Tail for my dog who has a Mast Cell Timor. Have added it to the cancer protocol I am giving her.
Sharon L. (store manager) –
Giving this a try
Yum with almond/ coconut milk
Can’t find where to do it but we also got more turkey tail mushrooms for my dog who has both epilepsy and a mast cell tumour
I’m touching wood as I say this but he has been seizure free since being on these… his tumour is still there ( visible on his thigh) but he is jumping around, happy, eating and “normal “
I truly believe the TT mushrooms have helped
Thank you from me and Ardesh
Karen (Verified Customer) –
I have been taking Turkey Tail for nearly a month and have found it fabulous. I brought hoping it would help with my chemo treatment. Since taking it my fatigue has nearly gone and I have had no nausea which is absolutely life changing. My quality of life has really improved. Would totally recommend Turkey Tail to anyone going through chemo.
Donna B. (Verified Customer) –
Hi Guys, my 2 orders arrived faster than anything I have ever ordered…even from the Perth area. Amazing.
I have only been taking the Turkey Tail capsules for about 3 weeks so hard to know just yet what affect it will have. The one thing I have noticed is that my sleep is deeper and that really is a welcome benefit.
Jenny (Verified Customer) –
I have had problems with skin cancers on my forehead. Someone told me about Turkey Tail, so I went searching. So happy I came across Forest Super Foods. I love that it is an Australian company and the products are grown right here in the Yarra Valley!
I’ve only been taking for a few weeks and I can see a massive difference in my skin.
Great product and great service, Thank you Team!
Valerie Roy (Verified Customer) –
My husband and I have been taking this product for a month now, and he especially is feeling the benefit of it. He says that he has more energy and feels less tired. Given that he has lung cancer, this is an excellent result. I am ready to order more.
Sharon (Verified Customer) –
Purchased this product for my dog who has a tumour and epilepsy…
he has eaten it easily and seems happy… didn’t upset his digestion at all … we just hope it can help him stay happy and healthy a little longer
