Mushroom Extracts: Fruiting Body vs. Mycelium

Original post in this thread

I know ND uses the fruiting body for their extracts but Stamets, the mushroom guru insists that the mycelium is more beneficiary. I understand that the mycelium is usually grown in rice and the concern is you would get rice/filler instead of mushroom but Stamets insists that a biotransformation of the rice occurs during the process that makes it the more beneficial part of the shroom.

Any research/thoughts on the ND side around this and the possibility of switching to mycelium? Thanks

There are so many bullshit tongkats on the market now, especially after Huberman went on Rogan. I am just going to be very direct here, as I no longer have the time nor the energy for bullshit. Anyone selling a 200:1 ton
