European greenhouse mushrooms are unfortunately not exposed to such a climate. Because we have each batch tested externally and independently not only for microbial contamination and heavy metals, but also, for some time now, for ETO (ethylene oxide), we offer our customers the highest level of safety without having to forgo the advantages of cultivating the mushrooms in their natural environment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhere are the capsules produced?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOur medicinal mushroom capsules are manufactured exclusively in Germany on certified production lines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhy aren't your mushroom capsules \u0026quot;organic\u0026quot;?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eExperience has shown that, especially in China, relying solely on an organic certification is unfortunately insufficient. Therefore, we have every batch tested by external laboratories, both before the raw materials are shipped and as the finished, encapsulated product. In addition to the standard analyses for heavy metals and microbial contamination, we also test for ethylene oxide (ETO), as contamination of raw materials from India, China, and Turkey has unfortunately been frequently detected recently.
