About Encapsulate USA:
Encapsulate USA was born out of a genuine friendship and a mission for better wellness. In 2014, founders Dave Claassen and Paul Grzybowski began sharing information about functional mushrooms as a complementary approach to traditional treatments. When a close friend was diagnosed with stage-4 breast cancer, they created a product designed to the highest standards: Paul formulated the blend (drawing on his chemistry background) and Dave sourced premium ingredients. This led to the development of their flagship 6-mushroom blend, fine-tuned for effectiveness and taste.
Today, Encapsulate USA offers a curated line of mushroom-based supplements committed to quality, transparency, and real results. With an emphasis on full-spectrum extracts rather than basic powders, the brand focuses on supporting immunity, energy, focus, and overall wellness. Based in Atlanta (USA), their story bridges personal care, scientific rigor, and community support—making them a trusted name for anyone seeking a more natural path to health.
