Vital mushroom Maitake

Maitake is used in the traditional Japanese health care for centuries. The mushroom is also an important part of the TCM.

Application of Maitake

In Asia, it is used for a healthy cholesterol level, a normal blood pressure and to support the liver.
For persons, who have the so-called “apple shape” characterised by fat stored around the waist, the hen of the woods is one of the most important medicinal mushrooms. Its ingredients support the fat digestion, reduce fat deposits in the liver and lower the triglycerid levels.

Ingredients of Maitake

The Maitake extract is rich in polysaccharides (glucans), lectins and precursors of nucleic acid, which can be beneficial for the immune system. Remarkable is the high amount of ergosterol, the precursor of vitamin D. Vitamin D improves the resorption of calcium, which is of importance for the bone formation.
