Wood Ear Mushroom Extract by 7 Gates Apothecary promotes gut-brain axis health, supports circulation and cognition, and nourishes Yin, all while aiding digestion and cardiovascular balance.
Wood Ear Mushroom: Gut + Brain Protect by 7 Gates Apothecary is a multi-functional extract made from Auricularia auricula, known in Traditional Chinese Medicine as Hei Mu Er (黑木耳). This formula is triple-extracted using water, organic alcohol, and USP-grade vegetable glycerin to deliver a full spectrum of therapeutic compounds.

It also has natural prebiotic properties, encouraging a healthy microbiome.
