Using just Shiitake mushrooms, spring water and Australian sugarcane alcohol, our process ensures a potent and comprehensive blend of both water and alcohol soluble bioactive compounds.
Shiitake isn't just a culinary delight.
Extracted for polysaccharides (lentinan and beta-glucans), eritadenine, sterols (ergosterol), phenolic compounds, polysaccharide-protein complexes, and terpenoids.
What the science says..
Shiitake:
Shiitake mushrooms are rich in polysaccharides, especially lentinan, which have been shown in studies to boost immune function. Lentinan has demonstrated the ability to enhance the activity of immune cells, including macrophages, which are essential for defending the body against pathogens.
Research on Shiitake mushrooms suggests they promote gut health by enhancing beneficial bacteria such as Bacteroidetes. Shiitake's polysaccharides act as prebiotics, contributing to a balanced microbiome and improving digestion and immune modulation.
Research into Shiitake mushrooms highlights their potential to reduce cholesterol levels, support cardiovascular health, and provide antioxidant protection.
