Among all functional mushrooms, Shiitake occupies a special place - it is the only one whose specific polysaccharide has undergone a full cycle of clinical trials and is approved in Japan as a drug. It was the Shiitake study in 1969 at the National Cancer Center in Tokyo that gave rise to modern scientific mycotherapy. Shiitake extract is a concentrated water-soluble form with an emphasis on beta-glucans and water-soluble active compounds of the mushroom. During the extraction process, lentinan and related polysaccharides are converted into a bioavailable form with a reproducible chemical profile. Standardization ensures stable concentration from batch to batch. The product is made exclusively from fruiting bodies without fillers or impurities.

What makes Shiitake unique?

Lentinus edodes contains lentinan, a specific beta-glucan with a branched structure not found in other mushrooms. Lentinan is the most clinically studied fungal polysaccharide and the main marker of biological activity of Shiitake. Along with lentinan, the mushroom contains eritadenine, a unique compound that is being studied in the context of maintaining healthy cholesterol levels.

Nutraceutical value

Immune Support - Lentinan is being studied in the context of NK cell, macrophage and T lymphocyte activation. One of the few fungal polysaccharides with a large clinical evidence base. Studied in integrative support protocols for cancer and viral conditions. Cardiovascular Support and Cholesterol - Shiitake eritadenine is being studied in the context of supporting healthy cholesterol levels through its effects on liver metabolism. One of the most documented areas of research for Lentinus edodes. Antiviral Activity - Shiitake beta-glucans and terpenes are being studied in the context of supporting antiviral immunity and interferon production.
