Should I buy Mushroom Extract Powder in Capsules?
Clinical studies with significant results all show an average of 2.5 to 5 grams of highly concentrated extracts being consumed daily. To reflect the benefits seen in clinical studies, you would have to consume anywhere from 7-14 capsules per day!
To better explain, capsules are usually 0.375 grams each (which is about 1/3 of 1 gram), meaning that if you were to take the daily recommended dose of 2.5 grams minimum, you would need to take between 6 and 7 capsules a day. (7 Capsules would be 2.625 grams).
Another observation about capsules: As you shop around, you’ll see that a bottle usually contains 60 capsules; at 0.375 grams per capsule, it means that such a bottle contains only 22.5 grams of powdered extract. Even if you get the much bigger and harder to swallow 0.500-gram capsules (which is 1/2 a gram), you would still be getting only 30 grams per bottle that contains 60 capsules, and you would need to take about 5 capsules a day.
