Field Notes

The Origin of Twelve Rivers Functional Mushroom MycoMedic Elixir Tincture

When we set out to create a truly transformative functional mushroom formula, we knew it had to be more than just a blend of effective ingredients—it had to be a purposefully crafted elixir that supports the body’s innate rhythms and resilience. Twelve Rivers was first released as an extract powder in 2015. After years of refinement, we introduced Twelve Rivers as a tincture in early 2021, preserving its full-spectrum benefits in a highly bioavailable tincture. Rooted in time-honored Classical Chinese Medicine principles, precise formulation techniques, and the interconnected flow of Qì, Twelve Rivers Tincture continues the legacy of this meticulously crafted formula.

With Twelve Rivers tincture, we wanted to create a formula that seamlessly integrates into daily life, offering a full-spectrum, highly bioavailable adaptogenic tonic. More than just a mushroom blend, this elixir was developed to fortify immune defenses (Wèi Qì), nourish foundational vitality (Jīng), and sustain mental clarity and resilience (Shén).* Each mushroom is carefully selected not only for its individual benefits but for how it harmonizes with the others, following the traditional Jūn-Chén-Zuǒ-Shǐ formulation strategy to create a precise, synergistic tonic.* This balance mirrors the body’s twelve meridians, or rivers, that sustain vitality and resilience.*

Behind the Twelve Rivers Name

The name Twelve Rivers is inspired by—and applies—Classical Chinese Medicine, where the body is understood as a landscape of Qì—the life force that sustains health and vitality. In this tradition, the twelve primary meridians, often likened to rivers, carry Qì throughout the body, nourishing every system and maintaining balance. This is the heart of the name Twelve Rivers.

The Twelve Rivers formula is designed to strengthen this flow by fortifying Wèi Qì (Defensive Energy) to support immune and mental resilience, nourishing Jīng (Essence) to sustain deep energy reserves and longevity, and harmonizing Shén (Spirit) to enhance clarity and emotional health.* By doing so, Twelve Rivers promotes both short-term vitality and long-term well-being.*

Just as rivers shape landscapes over time, Twelve Rivers provides deep, ongoing support for foundational health, helping the body sustain strength, renewal, and adaptability in the face of daily challenges and the unique stressors of modernity.*

While deeply rooted in tradition, Twelve Rivers Extract Powder is crafted with a modern understanding—and designed for convenience. Expertly prepared and ready to use, no further extraction is needed to unlock its full spectrum of bioactive compounds—beta-glucans, polysaccharides, and terpenes. Simply add Twelve Rivers to warm water, tea, or coffee to create a nourishing ritual that effortlessly integrates forest wisdom into your daily routine.

Twelve Rivers Functional Mushrooms MycoMedic Elixir Tincture is infused with our Spiced Winter Chai blend of pure essential oils, offering a warm, aromatic experience that enhances the sensory ritual of supplementation with the phytotherapeutic benefits of its ingredients. Whether added to a morning beverage or taken as a standalone tonic, Twelve Rivers Tincture transforms daily health support into a deeply restorative practice.

Twelve Rivers Functional Mushroom MycoMedic Elixir Tincture is more than the sum of its parts. Designed for those who understand the value of sourcing, tradition, and expert formulation, Twelve Rivers is a precisely crafted formula that fortifies immunity, sustains vitality, and supports the balanced flow of Qì for lasting resilience.

Twelve Rivers is your invitation to discover forest wisdom and the infinite power within. Welcome to the trail family.

Formula Theory and Overview


The Twelve Rivers Functional Mushroom MycoMedic Elixir is masterfully designed to support the body’s twelve primary Qì meridians—the vital pathways through which life force flows.

Rooted in Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM) and developed using the Jūn-Chén-Zuǒ-Shǐ framework, Twelve Rivers harnesses the synergy of eight functional mushrooms to fortify Wèi Qì (Defensive Energy), nourish Jīng (Essence), regulate Qì circulation, and balance Yīn and Yáng while harmonizing Shén (Spirit)—promoting resilience, immune function, and mental clarity.*

Every ingredient in Twelve Rivers is selected with purpose and intention, each playing a deliberate role in supporting specific organ systems and energetic pathways:

Strengthens Wèi Qì (Defensive Energy)

Turkey Tail and Royal Sun Agaricus reinforce the body's first line of defense, supporting immune adaptability and protecting against external influences that challenge well-being.*

Nourishes Jīng (Essence) and Sustains Vitality

Chaga and Willow Bracket deeply nourish Kidney Yīn, replenishing foundational energy reserves and sustaining long-term vitality and resilience.* By supporting Jīng, this formula promotes longevity and strengthens the body’s ability to recover from stress and exertion.*

Regulates Qì Circulation and Balances Yīn and Yáng

Cordyceps and Maitake invigorate Qì flow, supporting stamina, lung function, and metabolic efficiency—ensuring smooth, balanced energy circulation throughout the body’s twelve meridians. This formula also helps maintain Yīn-Yáng harmony, preventing imbalance and depletion over time.*

Supports Digestive and Metabolic Function

Maitake strengthens the Spleen and Stomach meridians, enhancing digestion and nutrient assimilation, which are essential for overall energy production and well-being.*

Harmonizes Shén (Spirit) and Enhances Mental Clarity

Reishi and Fú Shēn help stabilize and calm Shén, supporting emotional balance, cognitive resilience, and overall mental well-being. This promotes a sense of grounding, clarity, and adaptability in the face of stress.*

By working across all twelve meridians, Twelve Rivers delivers a full-spectrum, synergistic approach to functional mushroom support—sustaining both physical endurance and cognitive clarity.*

Designed as a true adaptogenic tonic, Twelve Rivers supports the body’s ability to adapt to stressors, promoting immune resilience, energy levels, and long-term wellness.* Whether used daily or in times of acute illness, Twelve Rivers seamlessly bridges classical herbal wisdom and modern phytotherapy, offering a foundation for lasting health and balance.*

Primary Ingredients


Reishi – 12.5% of Formula

<p><em>Ganoderma lucidum</em></p>

Ganoderma lucidum

Description: Reishi, revered as Ling Zhi (灵芝) in Chinese medicine, is often called the "Mushroom of Immortality" and is a cornerstone of Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM). Traditionally, Reishi has been used to nourish the Heart, calm the Shen (spirit), and support the Liver and Lung channels.

Reishi is particularly valued for its ability to harmonize Qi and Shen, which is associated with stress relief, emotional balance, and immune support. Reishi has also been traditionally used with the goal of promoting longevity and enhancing overall vitality.*

Ethnobotanical Tradition: For thousands of years, Reishi has been a staple in Chinese medicine, traditionally consumed by sages and royalty for its reputed life-extending properties.* Known for its rarity in the wild, Reishi was historically reserved for emperors and spiritual leaders, who believed it could confer immortality and spiritual enlightenment.*

Sourcing: Our Reishi is organically cultivated on Duanwood logs in Asia, following time-honored practices that aim to maximize its potency. Duanwood cultivation, which involves growing Reishi on hardwood logs, is revered for producing mushrooms with superior bioactive compounds, closely mimicking their natural growing conditions and enhancing their medicinal properties.

Parts Used: Fruiting Body

Role in Formula: As the Principal (Jun) Herb (君药 Jūn Yào), Reishi serves as the guiding force within this formula, harmonizing the body’s Qi and calming the Shen. It plays a central role in supporting immune health and providing stress relief, contributing to the formula’s overall effectiveness in promoting well-being and longevity.*


Cordyceps – 12.5% of Formula

<p><em>Cordyceps militaris</em></p>

Cordyceps militaris

Description: Cordyceps, known as Dong Chong Xia Cao (冬虫夏草) in Chinese medicine, is a revered tonic in both Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM). It is traditionally esteemed for its ability to invigorate the Lung and Kidney channels, supporting both Yin and Yang energies, which are believed to contribute to stamina, respiratory function, and overall vitality.*

Additionally, Cordyceps has been celebrated for its role in supporting the body's Wei Qi, or defensive energy, which is crucial for maintaining resilience.*

Ethnobotanical Tradition: Cordyceps has been cherished for centuries in Tibetan and Chinese medicine as a rare and highly prized tonic, traditionally used to promote longevity and vitality.* Historically, Cordyceps was so revered that it was reserved for emperors and the elite due to its scarcity and powerful health benefits.*

Sourcing: Organically cultivated in the USA in an environment designed to closely mimic its natural habitat, ensuring high quality and potency.

Parts Used: Fruiting Body

Role in Formula: As a Deputy (Chen) Herb (臣药 Chén Yào), Cordyceps works alongside the principal herb to support dynamic energy and reinforce Lung Yin and Kidney Yang. It is intended to synergize with the other ingredients to enhance physical endurance and mental clarity, contributing to both immediate and long-term vitality.*
