Life Cykel – Functional Mushroom Extracts & Mycelium Science

Life Cykel is an Australian-founded biotechnology and wellness brand at the forefront of functional mushroom research and cultivation. Built on a foundation of rigorous science and a deep respect for the intelligence of fungi, Life Cykel develops dual-extract liquid tinctures and powders that harness the full-spectrum bioactive potential of medicinal mushrooms — including their fruiting bodies and mycelium — to support immunity, cognition, energy, and long-term vitality.

What distinguishes Life Cykel is its proprietary extraction methodology and commitment to substrate integrity. Each product undergoes a dual-extraction process — combining hot water extraction to liberate beta-glucans and polysaccharides, with alcohol extraction to capture fat-soluble triterpenes and other bioactive compounds — ensuring the full therapeutic profile of each mushroom is preserved and bioavailable. Life Cykel cultivates its mushrooms on native Australian hardwood substrates, free from grain fillers and myceliated grain, and subjects every batch to third-party testing for heavy metals, pesticides, and microbial contaminants.

The Life Cykel range includes some of the most clinically studied medicinal mushrooms in the world:

• Lion's Mane — A neuroprotective mushroom renowned for its ability to stimulate Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) synthesis, supporting cognitive function, memory, focus, and nervous system repair. Available in liquid tincture and powder formats.
• Reishi — The "Mushroom of Immortality" in classical Chinese medicine, prized for its adaptogenic, immune-modulating, and calming properties. Rich in triterpenes and beta-glucans, Reishi supports stress resilience, sleep quality, and immune homeostasis.
• Turkey Tail — One of the most extensively researched medicinal mushrooms for immune support, containing Polysaccharide-K (PSK) and Polysaccharide-Peptide (PSP) — compounds with well-documented immunomodulatory activity.
• Chaga — A potent antioxidant mushroom harvested from birch trees, exceptionally rich in betulinic acid, melanin, and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Supports cellular protection, skin health, and immune defence.
• Cordyceps — A performance-enhancing mushroom traditionally used to support oxygen utilisation, ATP production, and adrenal function. Favoured by athletes and those seeking sustained energy without stimulants.
• Shiitake — A culinary and medicinal mushroom rich in lentinan, eritadenine, and B vitamins, supporting cardiovascular health, immune function, and metabolic balance.

All Life Cykel products are vegan, gluten-free, and free from artificial additives, fillers, and preservatives. Suitable for daily use and easily incorporated into water, coffee, smoothies, or food.
