About this listen

Jeff Chilton, raised in the pacific north-west, studied ethno-mycology in the late 1960s. In 1989 he founded Nammex, a business that introduced medicinal mushrooms to the nutritional supplement industry in the United States. Nammex extracts are used by many supplement companies and are noted for their high quality based on scientific analysis of the active compounds. 

In this conversation, we explore mushroom composition and anatomy, and their medicinal properties, including their immunological benefits. We discuss adaptogens and bringing harmony to our body and health, and also psychedelic mushrooms and healing. 

Specifically, we cover:

  • Mushroom cultivation
  • Beta-glucans and triterpenoids
  • Mushroom composition and anatomy
  • Mycelium and fruiting body
  • Ensuring mushroom quality and what to look for
  • Immunological benefits and properties of mushrooms
  • Adaptogens and bringing harmony and balance
  • Psychedelic mushrooms and healing
  • Self-transcendence
