Shiitake is an edible mushroom native to East Asia that naturally grows on rotting hardwood trees. However, it has also long been used in Chinese medicine, where the mushrooms are valued for their health properties, including supporting longevity. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Shiitake is useful for strengthening 'Qi' energy and blood. In Japan, several extracts of Shiitake mushrooms have been patented for use in treatments for cancer, immune system dysfunction and cholesterol control. Rich in B vitamins, amino acids and key active nutrients, take advantage of Shiitake's excellent nutritional profile to improve your well-being.

Our mushrooms are grown on selected organic farms and grown on organic brown rice for two months to obtain a higher yield of active substances. These nature-identical conditions give our mushrooms the more robust nutritional profile of wild-grown mushrooms. We then harvest the full spectrum biomass and young fruiting bodies, with additional hot water extracted mature fruiting bodies. This process provides superior levels of beta-glucans and other important nutrients. Finally, all our products are third-party tested to ensure the purity of the mushroom species. We also screen them for contaminants, pesticides and heavy metals so you can rest assured they are manufactured to the highest quality and standards.
