Shiitake (Lentinula edodes, the wood borer) belongs to the wood boring fungi and is a truly fascinating natural phenomenon. Often referred to as the "queen of mushrooms" or the "elixir of life", Shiitake 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 centre, i.e. digestion, which is controlled by the Pi(Spleen) system. This system is responsible for the production of Qi energy and blood, which are the basis of human vitality and immunity. Shiitake also has a tropism for the Fei(Lungs), which means it helps prepare the body to clash with external pathogens.
Bioactive ingredients:
Take 1-3 capsules daily. Take capsules on an empty stomach (at least 30 minutes before or 60 minutes after a meal) with water or weak green tea. For children, the dosage is reduced in proportion to age.When taking vital mushrooms, it is recommended to increase the intake of vitamin C, which increases the absorption of active substances. For example, in the form of the extract of the Brazilian acerola cherry. We recommend taking it 5 days a week and skipping 2 days.
Just like you, we want to be absolutely sure that our mushrooms are 100% effective and safe. That's why we subject them to the most stringent tests on the market, not only for harmful substances, but also for effective ones such as polysaccharides, beta-glucans, terpenes, etc.
Mushrooms like to take in all sorts of substances from the environment in which they grow. In order to ensure that nothing unwanted gets into ours, we actually test them continuously: from harvesting, through production, to the finished product.You could say we are obsessed with testing.
We test MycoMedica mushrooms in laboratories in the USA, Ireland, Germany, as well as at the University of Science and Technology in Prague. We don't do random tests, but honestly test all mushroom raw materials at all stages of the process.Top-quality facilities search for more than 350 harmful substances in our mushrooms.
PRO series - we also test for active ingredients
Think it's enough to test mushrooms for harmful substances? Not enough. You also need to check whether they have enough active ingredients to actually work. In addition to testing for harmful substances, MycoMedica also tests its mushrooms for beneficial substances.
Our new PRO line is carefully tested and standardized not only for polysaccharides but also for beta-1,3/1,6-D-glucan content to ensure its high quality and efficacy. Betaglucans are part of polysaccharides and are the most important active substances in mushrooms that are responsible for their effect on our immune system. Each product undergoes a thorough analysis process that usesWe use state-of-the-art methods to accurately measure beta-glucan content.Betaglucans are the most potent substances that directly regulate our immune system. We are the only company in Europe to do testing on this scale. Testing for beta-glucans is complex and costly. As a prestigious manufacturer, MycoMedica naturally does such tests.
