Score breakdown
Score Breakdown
The brand states the source is Reishi fruiting body, which scores the maximum 4 points for source type. The beta-glucan percentage is not publicly disclosed, scoring 0 for that sub-dimension. The extraction method is not publicly disclosed, scoring 0. Total mushroom content is 200mg per serving, which falls below the 500mg threshold used in clinical research on this species, scoring 0 for dose adequacy.
The brand publicly states the source type (fruiting body) and the country of origin (USA), earning points for those fields. Beta-glucan percentage, extraction method, and a certificate of analysis are not publicly disclosed. Three or more core fields are missing, so the platform applies a transparency penalty of -1 to the raw transparency score.
The cost per 100mg beta-glucan cannot be calculated because the beta-glucan percentage is not publicly disclosed, as confirmed by the platform-supplied figure of null. The subscription price of £25.43 per pack gives a price per serving of approximately £0.85, which is above the £0.60 category benchmark. Scoring is based on price per serving only, with a 1-point deduction applied for the absence of beta-glucan data, placing value in the high-cost band.
Trustpilot shows 2.5 stars from 13 reviews. Fewer than 50 reviews is too few to draw a reliable conclusion in either direction, so the neutral score of 2 points applies. Third-party testing is not publicly disclosed and no certificate of analysis is available, scoring 0. Organic certification is not claimed, scoring 0.
A subscription is available with a 20% saving (£25.43 versus £31.79 one-off), and the brand states there is no lock-in, scoring 4 points for subscription flexibility. No return or money-back policy is publicly disclosed, scoring 0. The product ships to the UK from the USA, scoring 2 points for UK availability.

How Plant People could improve this score
Path to improvement
+1.3 points to reach Partial Disclosure
+1.3
pts needed
- 1
Publish a certificate of analysis from an ISO 17025-accredited laboratory covering beta-glucans, heavy metals, and microbial contamination — this would add up to 5 points across the transparency and trust dimensions.
- 2
Disclose the beta-glucan percentage for the Reishi fruiting body extract — this would add up to 2 points to the transparency score and allow the cost per 100mg beta-glucan to be calculated.
- 3
State the extraction method (for example, hot water or dual extract) publicly on the product page — this would add 1 point to the transparency score and up to 2 points to the ingredient quality score.
- 4
Increase the total Reishi extract per serving to at least 500mg — at 200mg the product falls below the 500–3,000mg dose range used in clinical research on this species, and disclosing a higher dose would add up to 2 points to the ingredient quality score.
- 5
Publish a clear return or money-back guarantee policy — this would add up to 3 points to the consumer experience score.
