The Gold Standard In Organic Mushroom Extracts Since 1989
40 years of pioneering research, certified organic cultivation, and the industry’s most rigorous testing, powering the world’s leading functional mushroom brands.
Our Mushroom Extracts
At Nammex, all of our extract powders are made exclusively from 100% organic mushrooms (fruiting bodies). Using validated analytical methods we ensure that our products are high in active compounds like beta-glucans and other markers without any starch or grain filler.



Our Process
Nammex produces Organic Mushrooms as nature intended. Our mushrooms are grown on natural substrates with environmental conditions of fresh air, ambient temperatures and humidity. No sterile laboratories, sterile conditions and sterile mycelium fermented grain, just real mushrooms cultivated on a real farm in a natural environment.
Verified by Science
The Nammex Testing Protocol set the analytical standard for the functional mushroom industry. Every production lot is quantified for beta-D-glucan content, published on every product page, with independent identity authentication through Purity-IQ. You can be certain of potency and identity, so the ingredient you put in your product delivers what the label promises.

Our Story
Nammex was founded by Jeff Chilton, who’s been growing mushrooms since 1973, before most of today’s supplement industry existed. He co-wrote The Mushroom Cultivator, helped bring the first commercially grown fresh shiitake to the U.S. market, and spent the last three decades building direct relationships with organic mushroom farmers in China.
That 50 years of hands-on cultivation is why Nammex knows the difference between real mushroom extract and grain filler and why our products are tested and proven to be the best on the market.
