MycoMedica Polyporus 90 vegetable capsules

Effects of Polyporus

The history of Polyporus dates back over 2500 years, particularly to Asia, where it was used as a medicine for the treatment of swelling, drainage, and diarrhea.

Polyporus (grifola, Polyporus umbellatus) is a rare parasitic fungus that draws strength from tree roots. It contains biotin, which, according to orthomolecular medicine, promotes hair quality and shine.

In traditional Chinese medicine, Polyporus is valued for its ability to remove dampness (Shi) from the body, which often accumulates around the ankles, in the fingers, or on the face. Similar to other vital mushrooms, it can support defensive Qi energy (Wei Qi).

Modern science confirms these traditional insights with numerous studies and experiments that underline the importance of Polypore as a significant natural medicine.

Polyporus is therefore not only a biologically interesting organism but also an important element of traditional medicine with proven medicinal effects that continues to fascinate scientists and healers worldwide.

It occurs in the temperate zones of North America, Europe, and Asia and can also be found in the Czech Republic, especially in the Elbe region, in South Bohemia, and Moravia. The ideal time to harvest this mushroom is summer and autumn.

Polyporus (Polyporus umbellatus, umbrella polypore) is not only a fascinating wood-decay fungus but also a natural treasure full of bioactive substances. Polyporus grows at the base of both healthy and damaged deciduous trees and draws nutrients from their roots and stumps. Minerals are called the queen of mushrooms or the elixir of life.
