admin — Wed, 20 May 2009 22:09:06 +0000

Although we primarily carry the agaricus blazei mushrooms, we also sell maitake mushroom tablets. Maitake mushrooms are also very popular and very famous, especially in Japan.

There have been numberous studies showing the benefits of the maitake mushrooms for health also.

Here is an excerpt from the manufacturer.

In the Orient, some mushrooms are highly regarded as longevity herbs that preserve youth and maintain health. There are many folklores or anecdotes on such mushrooms. Traditional healers in China, Japan and other parts of Asia have prized and recognized the health enhancing potential of the mushrooms even considered as the foods of immortality.* Yet the scientific study of the mushrooms has only begun during the last twenty years. Researchers have found that some mushrooms are rich in minerals (such as potassium, calcium and magnesium), various vitamins (D2, B2, Niacin and C), fibers and amino acids. Another important ingredient especially found in the family of polyporaceae (so-called “Monkey’s Bench”) is a polysaccharide compound which exhibits strong immune support activity*.

If anyone has been using the maitake mushrooms for treatment, please post your comments or feedback here so we can share in your experience.
