Set up Profile nowDR Immune Five for Children is a medicinal mushroom extract supplement from Hifas da Terra, formulated specifically for children's immune health. It combines five mushroom extracts — a category well-studied for their beta-glucan content, which is thought to interact with immune receptors in the gut-associated lymphoid tissue and may support the body's natural defences.
Medicinal mushrooms such as Reishi, Shiitake, Maitake, Coriolus, and related species are among the most researched functional fungi for immune modulation. A blend of five extracts suggests a broad-spectrum approach, covering different beta-glucan profiles and polysaccharide fractions rather than relying on a single species.
This product is suited to children who experience frequent seasonal illness, those returning to school environments where infections circulate readily, or children with a generally low resilience to common respiratory bugs. It fits neatly into a daily routine alongside a balanced diet, and because it is formulated for children, the dose and presentation have been adapted accordingly.
Hifas da Terra is a Spanish mycology company with a research-led approach to mushroom cultivation and extraction. Their products are developed with pharmaceutical rigour, using standardised extracts rather than raw powder — a meaningful distinction when it comes to consistent beta-glucan delivery. For a children's supplement, that level of process control is particularly important.
Five medicinal mushroom extracts
Follow the dosage instructions on the packaging, as the appropriate amount is calibrated to the child's age or weight. Check with your child's GP or paediatrician before starting if your child is on any medication or has an underlying health condition.
Check the packaging for the specific age range, as the appropriate starting age will be listed there. If you are unsure whether it is right for your child's age or stage, speak with your GP or paediatrician before use.
Medicinal mushroom extracts are concentrated preparations derived from fungi such as Reishi, Coriolus, and Maitake, valued for their beta-glucan content. They have a long history of use and are generally considered well-tolerated, though a product formulated specifically for children — with appropriate dosing — is preferable to an adult product.
Immune support supplements typically require consistent daily use over several weeks before any difference in resilience becomes apparent. Most practitioners suggest a minimum of four to six weeks of continuous use as a fair assessment period.
Beta-glucan-containing mushroom supplements are not known to interact commonly with standard children's medications, but if your child is taking immunosuppressants or any prescribed treatment, consult your GP before adding this supplement.
Hifas da Terra uses standardised mushroom extracts rather than raw whole-mushroom powders. Standardised extracts are processed to deliver a consistent level of active compounds — primarily beta-glucans — which is more reliable than unprocessed powder where potency can vary significantly between batches.

Gentle on a sensitive stomach, and I feel like myself again. I had tried two other glandulars before this and neither sat right.

I was sceptical about glandulars, but my mid-afternoon crash has genuinely eased. One capsule with breakfast and I forget about it.

Not a stimulant, which is exactly what I wanted. It took about ten days, then I realised I wasn’t dreading the afternoon any more.

Bought after a blood panel flagged a flat cortisol curve. Easy to take, no jitters, and the sourcing is refreshingly transparent.

Training hard through a stressful stretch and this has helped me bounce back between sessions. Already on my second bottle.

No frills, one ingredient, a sensible dose. I appreciate that it is designed to be used for a season rather than forever.
