Maitake is used in the traditional Japanese health care for centuries. The mushroom is also an important part of the TCM. In Asia, it is used for a healthy cholesterol level, a normal blood pressure and to support the liver.

The mushroom is regarded as extremely rare and mushroom pickers, who kept their finding places a life-long secret, achieved material wealth and a good health as well as a strong immune system, if they consumed the mushroom themselves. The direct translation of the Asian name is “dancing mushroom” and it´s meant to remember the dances of joy of the mushroom pickers, when they found it hidden in the deep forests.

Maitake 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.
