Host Defense

Host Defense is built on Paul Stamets' visionary research into the power and potential of mushrooms, especially mushroom mycelium, the root-like structures found growing below ground. The power of Host Defense comes from the discovery that the mycelium is the immune system of the mushroom.

Host Defense Mushrooms are certified organic and non-GMO and are grown on our own farm in Washington State, USA. We maintain organic growing conditions to ensure a pure, contaminant-free mushroom harvest. Our mushroom fruitbodies and mycelium are sustainably cultivated, protecting wild species and their environments. A portion of proceeds are devoted to saving rare strains of mushrooms that dwell within old-growth forests. We maintain complete control over all growing and harvesting processes for our mushroom ingredients.

Host Defense was founded by Paul Stamets, a mycologist and author of six books that discuss mushroom cultivation and identification. His passion and knowledge of mushrooms lead him to create Host Defense.

Host Defense products offer customers the finest mushroom supplements available today.

Why mushrooms?
