Functional mushroom gummies are chewables made with mushroom extract or powder: one mushroom, such as lion's mane, reishi or cordyceps, or a blend of several. Three things on the label are worth comparing: which mushroom, how much extract is in a serving, and how many gummies make a serving. The catch is that labels do not all state the extract the same way, so the first number you see is not always comparable.
The gummies, as each label states them
Our partner brands' functional mushroom gummies include these. Each name links to its page, with its buy button.

Prices are the brands' regular prices as our catalog last read them. The Troomy figure for Sleep is its Supplement Facts label; the product page's own headline gives 800 mg.
Reading the extract figure
Troomy's labels give an equivalent: 800 mg "from 80 mg of 10:1 extract" means 80 mg of a concentrated extract, counted as the 800 mg of mushroom it was made from. cbdMD's listing works the other way round: its 376 mg is the extract itself, and its listing gives that as 3,760 mg of mushrooms at a 10:1 ratio. Put on one basis, a serving of cbdMD's gummies holds 310 mg of lion's mane extract and a serving of Troomy Focus holds 80 mg, although Troomy's headline number is the bigger one. Lazarus Naturals states 1,200 mg of lion's mane extract with no ratio, so it cannot be put on the same basis from its listing alone.
So compare a figure only with another stated the same way, and within one mushroom. A blend spreads its milligrams across every mushroom in it: the 2,000 mg in Troomy's 14-mushroom Daily blend is not 2,000 mg of any one of them.
Check the serving
Troomy's Focus, Calm and Boost gummies are two to a serving, so a 60-count bottle is 30 servings at $1.33 each. Its Daily blend and its Sleep gummy are one to a serving, so the same bottle is 60 servings at $0.67. Where a brand does not state the count or the serving, the price per serving cannot be worked out.
Mushroom gummies with CBD
For the CBDfx gummy, the CBD is the ingredient with a stated total: 25 mg a gummy, 1,500 mg a jar, which is $0.037 per mg of CBD at its regular price. It sits beside the other CBD gummies in the price per mg index.
What to check on the label and the lab report
Look for the mushroom's name, the part used (fruiting body or mycelium), the extract amount per serving and whether it is stated as extract or as an equivalent. A lab report, where the brand publishes one, shows what the lab measured in a batch. Our guide to reading a certificate of analysis covers what to look at.
