Abstract: The invention is an important innovation in mushroom culture in which not only are mycelia beneficially grown on the novel combination of a grain (or seed) and an herb, in the preferred embodiment of the invention the mycelial mass is grown in a co-fermentation with all of a grain (or seed), an herb and a juice. The resulting mycelial biomass contains dramatically improved medicinal and nutritional constituents compared to mushrooms grown on standard, prior art media.
Abstract: The present invention is a method of preparing and potentiating functional foods and, in particular, herbs, by subjecting the food or herb to specific method steps, either a particular three- or four- step potentiating process or a specific infusion/fermentation potentiating technique, for which in some embodiments the fermentation is optional.
Abstract: The present invention is an improved probiotic nutritional supplement, in unit dosage form for animal or human consumption, and a method of preparing it.
