        With its sponge like appearance, Tremella also known as jelly fungus, has the capacity to hydrate and has been used throughout the orient to promote longevity and youthfulness, supporting respiratory health and nourishing the bodies Qi (chi). Famed for being the beauty fungus, the anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds have been used in cosmetics to support skin rejuvenation, regeneration and hydration, but beauty are not the only tools in its adaptogenic arsenal.

        The jelly to live, breath and glow… inside-out.

        • Adaptogen; helping the body adapt to stress, allowing for an increased tolerance to mental exhaustion, enhancing attention and mental endurance.
          Immunomodulator; strengthening, balancing, supporting and regulating the immune system, optimising immune response.

          In addition to Jelly Fungus, Tremella is also known as Silver Ear, Snow Fungus, Yellow Brain, and Witches Butter, used traditionally within Chinese Medicine as a key anti-aging product, in addition to helping treat dry coughs and asthma, supporting lung health, perfect for individuals in dry atmospheres or environments with poor air quality. It has also been used as a nutritive tonic for time of debility and exhaustion, improving energy levels after periods of weakness, such as; child birth, gastro, menstruation (of the abnormal variety) and constipation.

          Tremella contains potent anti-oxidants, namely polysaccharides, one of which has been shown to have extraordinary the ability to retain around 500 times its own weight in water, giving rise to the name “Beauty Fungus”. Hyauronic Acid has the ability to retain 1000 times its own weight, but its particles are bigger, and research has found that due to the small sized particles of Tremella it actually outperforms hyaluronic acid and glycerin, 2 expensive and commonly used ingredients in hydrating and rejuvenating beauty creams (hyaluronic acid $5 per gram).

          The additional benefit that Tremella offers regarding beauty, are when its applied topically, the Polyaccharides have been shown to prevent the formation of melanin in the skin - having a lightening effect. Topical use has also been shown to have the ability to promote collagen production and increase levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) (an anti-oxidant enzyme that naturally occurs in the skin (dermis and epidermis) protecting it from free radicals). By helping to increase SOD levels in the skin, Tremella is able to help provide an anti-inflammatory, protective and regenerative effect.

          Tremella has also been shown to support nerve and brain health, improving memory and learning. Our Tremella has been water extracted as there are no elements that require alcohol extraction to be bioavailable, everything you need to have access to all the compounds for optimal health.

        • As with many things internet based, a lot of information is copied and pasted, has a dash of creative license, a sprinkling of Chinese whispers and boom you have a new superfood or a superherb. When we select our products we look for the most effective and the very best quality. So we research, then research some more, and provide all of that research here, so that you can make up your own mind.

          HYDRATING & ANTI-OXIDANT (ANTI-AGING)

          
To stay looking younger, it is important to keep the skin hydrated, research has found that when cosmetics had 0.05% Tremella polysaccharides (carboxymethylated polysaccharides) added to them they were more moisturising than those with 0.02% added hyaluronic acid, with a moisture retention rate of 65.7% after 96hours. (3, 9, 10, 11) Overproduction of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in the skin can cause oxidative stress and DNA damage. Tremella has been suggested to remove 80-87% of the ROS radicals and also have a protective and anti-aging effects on cells. (9, 10, 11) Moreover, when catechin antioxidants (commonly found in matcha) were grafted to the the Polysaccharide anti-oxidant of Tremella, they were found to have a higher radical scavenging effect than the polysaccharides of Tremella alone. (4)

          SUPEROXIDE DISMUTASE (SKIN REGENERATION)

          
Various biological activities define ageing, one of which is the decline in our immune function, when our immune system declines many things happen, the most obvious being that we become more susceptible to sickness, but another being that we are more susceptible to inflammation and oxidation, tremella has the ability to increase levels of Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) (in organs, skin being one of our bigger organs) which helps provide an anti-aging response by reducing inflammation and oxidation. (2, 3, 11)

          IMMUNE HEALTH

          
New blood cells are generated in the bone marrow though a process called hemopoiesis, (very simply put) if this process or the cells in this process are damaged it can impact proper immune function, oxygenation and removal/transport of waste throughout the body. Tremella has the ability to help prevent the disruption of this process by enhancing cellular immunity. (2)

          BRAIN HEALTH (MEMORY & LEARNING)

          
Tremella has been shown to have the ability to increase the development of neurons within the brain and improve glucose metabolism, energising the brain (“the number of KREB neurons increased by 134%”). (2, 5, 14) In addition, the polysaccharide within Tremella have been shown to have a protective effect against neurotoxicity, with the potential to help against neurodegenerative diseases. (13)

          NERVOUS SYSTEM

          
Tremella was researched for its ability to aid nerve growth and repair in respect of sciatic nerve regeneration, and found to be effective in the ruction of damage and improvement of functionality. (12)

          WHEY AND TREMELLA

          
While it has been stdied that Tremella may enable the improvement of the solubility of Whey Protien Isolate (WPI) and thus shelf stability for ‘grab and go’ beverages, it may also slow the digestion of WPI in the gut when consumed with out Tremella. (8)

          ANTI-INFLAMMATORY and ANTI-OXIDANT

          
The polysaccharides extracted from Tremella have been show to help reduce inflammation and oxidation across multiple biological inflammatory responses. (11)

          GUT HEALTH

          
Polysaccharides have been researched for their effect on Gut Health and shown to help against leaky gut, improve immune health and create an environment which lowers the risk of tumours. (15)

          There are many ways to consume tonic mushrooms. Traditionally, they are made into a tea with hot water. We add the powder to our coffees, smoothies, chocolate, raw snacks, broths and even our soups! We also love to use Tremella as a hydrating face mask.

        CHINESE MEDICINE

        The Grove principles and philosophies are very much aligned with those of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The Chinese tonic herbalist is proactive in their approach to health, rather than treating disease, they carve a path to promote “radiant health” or “health beyond danger”. There is a similar Benjamin Franklin quote "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure". Prevention is cure is something we believe too.

        Those who take medicine and neglect their diet waste the skill of the physician — Chinese Proverb

          Love it!

          I’ve tired a lot of mushroom powders from several ‘highly recommended’ places but I can honestly say that this one, like several other mushroom powders I have from The Grove are fantastic. How could there be so much variance in taste when it’s the same mushroom I honestly don’t know. What I do know is that I won’t be purchasing my mushroom powders any where else from now on! So glad I’ve discovered you The Grove‼️

          Holy ****!! It works.

          The reishi and the cordyceps work. And now I am trying the tremella and it works too. I fell on top of the world right now. I could shout from the roof tops. The Grove get the best products but theirs, you won’t be disappointed.
