1. Live Longer Thanks To Functional Mushrooms? • "Functional" mushrooms, also known as "medicinal mushrooms", are fungal specimens that, beyond their nutritional properties, contain active ingredients that are beneficial to our body. • They strengthen immunity , increase our energy, improve our memory and reduce inflammation, in particular. • This is why they are pillars of traditional Chinese medicine, whether cordyceps, reishi, shiitake, chaga, or lion's mane. “ • The use of buy magic mushrooms has been highly developed in Asia for millennia, and has been growing rapidly over the past ten years in the United States and Canada. • I have seen new brands develop, the demand continues to grow! enthuses Alexandra Courio, founder of Mycelab , the first French food supplement laboratory specializing in the use of functional mushrooms. • Anglo-Saxon countries have already taken up this theme. The United States, Canada and Australia are much more familiar with functional mushrooms than we are. • We particularly think of brands like Four Sigmatic, which since 2012 has been offering mixes of coffee, cocoa and tea enhanced with cordyceps or reishi. • Its turnover was $61.7 million in 2018, and the company now has more than 60 employees. • Its founder, the young Finn Tero Isokauppila, recognizes that most of his customers do not like mushrooms but quickly notice their benefits. • The functional mushroom market was worth $5.8 billion in 2018, with China being the largest producer and consumer of the mushroom.

2. The Mycelium, This Bio-Pesticide Mushrooms, and more specifically the mycelium, this network of filaments which constitutes their vegetative apparatus, have very promising ecological potential when it comes to depolluting the soil, replacing pesticides, plastic, and even serving as biofuel. Mainly underground and translucent, the mycelium turns white, pink or yellow, depending on the species. The largest on the planet lives in Oregon and extends over… 9 km2! The kind of news that should provide a shot of serotonin to eco-anxieties. The functions of the mycelium are essential: it explores the soils and supports them, nourishes the fungi (and other species), protects them. It secretes enzymes that fight pathogens and can even break down matter. It attacks dead wood, eats it, recycles it and returns it in the form of nutrients to plants. Trees, insects, plants, animals: it combines with different species, interacts with them, and connects them to each other. Without mycelium, there is no symbiosis. It is the greatest communicator – albeit completely silent – in the plant world. It is also the greatest natural “recycler”. That's why Paul Stamets calls it " our planet's natural Internet . " During a TED conference given in 2008, the researcher already proposed “six solutions to save the world thanks to mushrooms”. His obsession is as follows: what if collaborating with the mycelium allowed us to restore our ecosystems and make our planet greener? Some mushrooms have properties similar to pesticides, but without the inconveniences caused by the latter for health and the environment. For example, once placed around a field or house overrun with ants, these fungi have been observed to deflect insect pests from their targets and limit their spread. What if I told you that one of the ways to end the use of plastic is – after reducing our waste, of course – to replace it with mycelium? Two American engineers, Eben Bayer and Gavin McIntyre, have developed various flexible, resistant and insulating materials from the mycelium . They are already used to package products, insulate buildings, manufacture furniture and textiles. Plus, they're biodegradable! Tricoderma is the name of a filamentous fungus whose enzymatic activity could revolutionize our use of petroleum. Recently, thanks to Tricoderma , there is a second generation of biofuels. The first, produced from food crops (maize, beets, rapeseed, wheat), is not ecologically satisfactory because it requires extensive land use, and competes with food production. Palm oil, whose disastrous environmental impact is well known, is for example a first-generation biofuel. The second generation aims to be more exemplary: it uses agricultural and forestry waste.

3. And that's where Tricodermacomes into play. Its enzymes transform natural waste into sugar, yeast is added, these ferment and give ethanol. It almost looks like cooking. The French Futurol project , which has been working on the subject for ten years and is beginning to market it, estimates that by 2030 this biofuel could be used on a large scale and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 85% compared to renewable energies. fossils.
