METABOLIC | Maitake
100% fruiting body Maitake extract with D-fraction beta-glucans. ≥30% polysaccharides, hot-water extracted. With breakfast or lunch. Product Title: METABOLIC: Maitake Fruiting Body Extract
Maitake (Grifola frondosa), literally "dancing mushroom" in Japanese, has a long history in traditional Japanese and Chinese food and wellness practices. METABOLIC is made from 100% Maitake fruiting body, sourced and extracted the same way as every other variety in the mitovito line.
Why Maitake Maitake's defining compound is its D-fraction, a specific beta-glucan structure that has been a focus of modern research into metabolic balance, particularly around insulin sensitivity. This is distinct from the general polysaccharide content most mushrooms are measured by, D-fraction refers to a specific, well-characterized fraction unique to how Maitake's beta-glucans are structured.
What's Inside METABOLIC is a single-ingredient extract: 100% Maitake fruiting body, hot-water extracted, with ≥30% polysaccharides (≥300mg per gram serving). No fillers, no mycelium-on-grain substitution.
How to Use Add one gram, about one level scoop, to a meal, whether that's a morning smoothie, lunch-time tea, or a warm broth. Stir for 10 seconds. METABOLIC is designed around meal-time consistency rather than a specific time of day.
Perfect For

People looking to add a with-meal mushroom ritual rather than a morning or evening one
Shoppers building a full 8-variety rotation who want METABOLIC's role clearly distinct from the others
