MycoMedica Shiitake 90 vegetable capsules

Effects of Shiitake

Shiitake, often referred to as the "queen of mushrooms" or "elixir of life", is rich in essential amino acids, minerals, B vitamins, provitamin D2, and many other bioactive compounds.

According to traditional Chinese medicine, it supports the human center, i.e., digestion, which is governed by the Pi (spleen) system. This system is responsible for producing Qi and blood energy, which are the foundation of human vitality and immunity. Shiitake also has a tropism for Fei (lungs), which means it helps prepare the body to encounter external pathogens.

Shiitake (Lentinula edodes, edible mushroom) is a wood-decay fungus and a truly fascinating natural phenomenon.

It has a long history of use, dating back thousands of years, especially in China and Japan. Japanese writings state that the Kyushu tribe brought Shiitake as a gift to the Japanese emperor.

MycoMedica Shiitake is grown on a substrate consisting of a mixture of sawdust, organic wheat bran, cane sugar, and natural gypsum, ensuring its high quality and efficacy.

Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) is called the queen of mushrooms or the elixir of life due to its high content of amino acids, vitamins, and minerals.
