Hi Ian, sorry your order hasn't reached you yet. We've sent you an email with your tracking details — delivery has been a bit slower than usual over the Easter bank holiday weekend, but your parcel should be with you on Tuesday. We're a small, independent team and always happy to help if you have any questions. — David, TFMC Team
These guys are for real.
The product arrived well packaged. I have had a chat with the founder and these guys are legitimate. Recommend

Upgraded to Animate after trying some…
Upgraded to Animate after trying some Lion's Mane gummies from another company that turned out to be massively underdosed. It took me about 5 weeks to feel the effects but this is the real deal. My focus and creativity is so much better and my job is reliant on it. You can tell these guys care a lot about the product, from the packaging to the ingredients, it's top.

Trustworthy Company with Great supplements
I have found the supplements from FMC to be effective. I have also found the customer service to be outstanding. I have asked questions about my experiences with mushroom supplements a couple of times and they have been so generous with their time sending me the information and links to studies for my own research.
I have now been using the Flourish Blend for over 6 months and find it helpful in improving sleep quality and my immunity to everyday colds. I also take the Ignite Blend coffee and Lion's Mane in the morning which has helped me give up caffeine (which I needed to do).
Top Notch. Thank you Functional Mushroom Company

I have used Flourish for six months
I have used Flourish for six months, choosing it mainly for its immune and anti-inflammatory benefits. It became an easy addition to my daily routine and helped me feel a more steady and well overall.

Immunity and Sleep support
My third time purchasing Flourish as it really helps with my immunity and I haven’t caught any of the usual coughs and colds since starting it. It’s part of my bedtime routine and also helps sleep.

A real game changer!
Having studied nootropics over many years I can say the Animate blend is the real deal. It has had such a positive impact on the life of my elderly father. And the knock-on impact on the family is impossible to measure.
Outstanding product. Outstanding company.

Lifechanging product. Outstanding company.
This company is an absolute gem. In an industry flooded with bogus claims and synthetic ingredients - Functional Mushrooms do EVERYTHING right.
The Animate blend has had a HUGE impact on the my dad - aged 90 and living with dementia. His speech, memory and daily function was measurably better in just a couple of months. He seems 10 years younger. And we feel like the family has been restored.
Plus, interaction with the company has been a absolute joy. They feel more like friends than a business. I cannot recommend them more highly. 6 -stars!

Thanks for your continued custom Heather, and another 5* review - we like to keep our operation prompt and organised ;)
Delighted
Although I am excited and looking forward to my recent purchase there has been a problem with the delivery and I have raised a complaint to help get it sorted. I have not received my order and there is something quite suspect about the delivery drivers actions. The delivery company is Evri and apparently, according to forums online they are not very professional or reliable. UPDATE!!! This problem was put right quickly and a replacement package was swiftly dispatched and delivered by Royal mail this time round so I think it’s only fair to praise the mushroom company for their swift action. So thank you very much for that. I am very impressed.

Hi Jamie,
We share your frustration with Evri - the courier's mishandling of your delivery is one of the reasons why we've now switched to Royal Mail for all orders.
As discussed in our emails, when you contacted us we immediately dispatched a replacement via next day delivery, and we're pleased to hear from you that this has arrived safely. While we can't control courier mishaps, we'll always make things right when they occur.
We hope you're enjoying the mushroom extracts now you've received them.
Best wishes,
David

Great Product; Great Customer Service; Great Company!
I have tried both the Flourish and Animate supplements from the Functional Mushroom Company. Both products are beautifully presented and well explained. I have found the Flourish in particular to be very effective for my sleep. Most importantly this small, independently operated business has superb customer service - prompt, friendly and extremely helpful. 5/5 - highly recommend!
