The Real Thing takes Social Responsibility seriously. We regularly receive feedback from our valued customers regarding our product offering and its impact on the environment. Consequently we have re-evaluated the use of secondary packaging for the Complementary Medicine range. Secondary packaging in this range is being phased out for all products except that packed into the 75 ml glass bottles and our Mega Omega Fish Oil Range (Natural and Lemon). Current batches are being packed into glass amber bottles only. For your convenience, we have added a recycling logo to remind and encourage recycling. We have also provided a link to The Glass Recycling Company. Visit their website to find a glass bank closest to you. Alternatively, many retailers have recycling facilities, so make recycling part of your shopping journey! Let us all do our part to recycle, repurpose or reuse to save our planet.
MEDICINAL MUSHROOMS
PLEASE ADVISE IF THESE ARE MYCELIUM OR FRUITING EXTRACTS?
The Real Thing Medicinal Mushroom Capsules contains full spectrum mushrooms i.e. it contains the full fungal material consisting of all the biologically active components including the mycelium, primordia, fruiting bodies and most importantly, the extracellular compounds produced throughout the entire life cycle of the organism.
IS AN EXTRACTION PROCESS PERFORMED ON THE MUSHROOMS, i.e. HOT WATER, ALCOHOL; OR ARE THEY DRIED AND POWDERED?
During production the full spectrum mushrooms are dried, size reduced and sieved to meet specification and passed through metal detection prior to packing and quality approval.
