These formulations are designed to deliver a range of health benefits, such as enhancing immune function, boosting cognitive performance, supporting mood and mental clarity, providing adaptogenic and antioxidant benefits, and suppressing appetite. The patent also specifies the flexibility of the formulations, allowing for the combination of these compounds in precise dosages to maximize synergistic effects. This versatility opens doors for creating targeted wellness products that cater to diverse health needs.
"This acquisition is a significant step forward in our mission to provide cutting-edge wellness solutions,” commented Jacob Cohen, Founder and CEO of MangoRx, who continued, "We believe that the unique properties of these mushroom-derived formulations offer tremendous potential for products that can address a wide spectrum of health concerns, from immune support to cognitive enhancement.”
The Company's acquisition comes at a time when the global nutraceutical market continues to expand rapidly, driven by increased consumer awareness of natural health solutions. According to a recent study performed by Mordor Intelligence, the global functional mushroom market alone was valued at USD 32.41 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD 48.59 billion by 2029, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.44%. According to industry trends, functional mushrooms have become a cornerstone of this market due to their scientifically validated benefits and versatility in addressing key health concerns.
The Company plans to leverage this patent to research and develop a new line of wellness products aimed at improving overall health through scientifically backed natural formulations. Products derived from these compositions may include dietary supplements and functional foods. Daily immune support may harness the antioxidant properties of Reishi and Chaga mushrooms, while planned cognitive boosting supplements are expected to feature Lion's Mane for the promotion of enhanced brain function and nerve health. Planned stress resilience formulas are projected utilize the adaptogenic properties of Cordyceps to manage stress and improve energy levels, and weight management aids will incorporate appetite-suppressing and metabolism-supporting properties of these mushroom compounds.
