Organic Shiitake 60g

Our Organic Shiitake Mushroom is a 100% fruiting body extract from Shiitake sustainably cultivated in Qingyuan province, China, and grown on wood chips.

Native to Southeast Asia, Shiitake is an important culinary Mushroom with an impressive biological profile containing high levels of polysaccharides. We only use pure grade extracts that guarantee 100% concentrated Mushroom without added binders.

Pure Grade is the hallmark of the highest quality Mushroom Supplements. We use a hot water fruiting body extract to release and concentrate its polysaccharides including beta-glucans.

Shiitake provides digestive support and high anti-microbial activity, it has the highest anti-candida action among several Mushrooms. Has broad anti-viral and hepatoprotective properties, and it improved liver function in a study of patients with chronic hepatitis.

Shiitake and its compounds, including eritadenine, have been shown to inhibit the development of hypercholesterolemia, and decrease total cholesterol and triglycerides.

Regular consumption is linked to improved immunity as seen by improved cell proliferation and activation and increased SIgA production.

The increase in SIgA implies improved gut immunity.

Suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets.

We source only the highest quality Mushrooms, organically grown by our farmers in China. The use of medicinal Mushrooms was a cornerstone in Traditional Chinese Medicine and this practice dates back thousands of years. No country has more extensive knowledge than China in the growing and extraction of Mushrooms. China is also home to some of the vastest and most pristine forests in the world, which provide the ideal environment for Mushrooms to grow.
