English: Brazil mushroom, sun mushroom

The ABM mushroom powder is rich in vital substances

ABM (Agaricus blazei Murill) is characterised by one special property. It contains a balanced combination of valuable vitamins and minerals, including riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), biotin (B7), folic acid (B9), ergosterol (provitamin D), potassium, zinc, iron, calcium and magnesium. Furthermore, amino acids and a high amount of polysaccharides belong to the mushroom´s most important ingredients.

What are polysaccharides?

Polysaccharides are also called glycans, which belong to the subgroup of the carbohydrates and have various properties.
Beta-glucans can be found in oat, wheat, algae and yeasts, but mushrooms contain the largest variety. The high content of these beta-glucans is especially remarkable, the beta-d-glucan in particular, which is why the mushroom is very popular in Japan.

Application of the ABM mushroom

Beta-d-glucan is able to activate the immune system and the natural endogenous scavenger cells. Its adaptogenic properties ensure that a hyperactive immune system is not extra stimulated.

• can activate the immune system
• protects cells and tissues
• standardised to 45% polysaccharides
