Hidden Gems: Meet David Claassen of ENCAPSULATE

Today we’d like to introduce you to David Claassen.

Hi David, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
ENCAPSULATE: Pioneering the Future of Mushroom-Based Wellness

Founded in 2021, ENCAPSULATE was created with a mission to help people combat inflammation, boost energy, and improve overall health through the power of functional mushroom extracts.

Developed by Chemist and Mycologist Paul Grzybowski, the company’s flagship product: 6 Mushroom Blend featuring Lion’s Mane, Shiitake, Turkey Tail, Reishi, Cordyceps, and Chaga, delivers the potency of 8,000mg per serving, making it one of the most potent medicinal supplements on the market.

Customers consistently report benefits including reduced inflammation, sharper focus, improved circulation, and greater vitality.

With a full product line of individual offerings in 1000mg and 8000mg, the company aims to reach more people.

What began at farmers markets and festivals has since expanded into health food stores, medical practices, sports facilities, med. spas, and multiple online platforms including Amazon and EncapsulateUSA.com.

ENCAPSULATE continues to gain traction with Doctors, Athletes, and Wellness professionals alike.

Looking ahead, ENCAPSULATE is looking at clinical trials in Atlanta to validate its products’ impact on key biometrics such as blood pressure and cholesterol.

The brand is also collaborating with the USP Dietary Supplement Verification Program, with a major milestone on the horizon: in 2026, ENCAPSULATE will become the first Sports Certified Mushroom Supplement in the world. This will allow Doctors and health conscious professionals to recommend the product with ease.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Educating consumers hasn’t been easy—nearly one in three people are mycophobic, or fearful of mushrooms. It often takes repeated conversations and sampling for them to understand the safety and benefits of our products.

Through consistent sampling, social media education, and word-of-mouth referrals, cultural attitudes toward mushrooms are shifting quickly.

We’ve been impressed with ENCAPSULATE, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
ENCAPSULATE, an Atlanta-based business, produces daily use medicinal mushroom supplements using highly concentrated extracts—delivering 1,000mg and 8,000mg offerings of medicinal functional mushrooms in just two capsules.

Unlike many brands, ENCAPSULATE sets itself apart with third-party testing, Non-GMO, Certified Organic, Kosher verification, and guaranteed freedom from heavy metals and microbials. All mushrooms are sourced and extracted in North America.

Alright so before we go can you talk to us a bit about how people can work with you, collaborate with you or support you?
