Today we dig into the dirt with a visionary founder in the production and supply chain for Functional Mushrooms. You'll learn everything you need to know about these powerful complementary supplements and how to source them for your own benefit.
Jme Bonfiglio, a trailblazer in the field of mycology, has dedicated her life to exploring and educating others about the myriad benefits of mushrooms. With a childhood immersed in tribal healing practices, mushrooms have been a cornerstone of her health and wellness journey. Her profound expertise and innovative mushroom-based formulas have garnered international acclaim and demand.
Before founding her own company, Jme honed her skills with Host Defense in Utah and collaborated with Nammex as a supplier. Her experience in the industry revealed a troubling lack of transparency and quality in mushroom supplements – a market rife with substandard extraction methods and multi-sourced raw materials. Determined to set new standards in the industry, Jme established WholeSun Wellness in 2017.
WholeSun Wellness, under Jme‘s visionary leadership, offers an unparalleled product in the market: whole mushroom extracts that are not only clinically potent but also with verified therapeutic compounds. These products are free from additives and artificial ingredients, with a transparent and traceable production process. Jme‘s commitment to overseeing every step, from cultivation to processing, ensures the highest quality.
In just five years, WholeSun Wellness has transformed from a modest startup into a major player in the industry.

Welcome to The Verbal Echo. Join host Monica Martin and Co-host Sara Rowe as we recount experiences through the voices of those who've lived to tell their stories. We seek to…
You will hear first-hand stories of the unexplained—from mysterious cryptids and alien encounters to paranormal experiences that defy explanation through the lens of the human experience. We will talk with authors, researchers, other podcasters, experts, and everyday people who need a sounding board to share everything they know.
Each episode features human stories that challenge what we think we know, revealing details that often fly under the radar. We don't want mainstream conversations on this podcast. We look at the fringe, the edges, and the intersections of thought-provoking topics and coax them out of the shadows.
If you’re drawn to the strange and hidden, join us on The Verbal Echo and discover how every story can change what you believe is possible.
No guardrails.
