Manufacturing Process
Poria-MRL is not an extract but instead contains both the mycelium  and the primordia (young fruiting bodies)  of Polyporus umbellatus grown aseptically into a biomass.  The biomass is then manufactured into tablets, each containing 500mg.

Cultivation Process of Poria-MRL
MRL Ltd.´s Poria cocos powder contains both mycelium and primordia (young fruit body) cultivated into a biomass that is grown on a sterilised (autoclaved) substrate.
This cultivation process ensures the powder is free from contamination by other fungi and that pesticides and heavy metals are absent.

The cultivation system is proprietary, allowing for standardised production of Poria cocos. The powder biomass is then sealed in plastic containers.


Certified Organic (USA & EU)
The fungal biomass Poria cocos that comprises Poria-MRL is certified 100% Organic in the United States by Quality Assurance International (Certificate No. 103491-A).
In December of 2005, MRL powder gained EU organic certification in accordance with EU Council Regulation (EEC) No. 2092/91 by Quality Assurance International (Certificate No. 105493-A).
