AHCC® 500mg - 60 caps

AHCC® consists of a complex of nutrients with a unique composition. The product is manufactured from an extract of the shiitake mushroom (Lentinula edodes). AHCC®'s specially developed production process ensures that this food supplement has unique qualities. Quality AHCC® has been produced in Japan since 1989 by the renowned company Amino Up Co. using a fermentation process that has been continuously refined over the years. By starting each production with the same initial culture, a consistent composition and high quality of the final product can be guaranteed. The patented production process ensures a high content of alpha-glucans; polysaccharides that naturally occur in small amounts in shiitake mycelia. This is in contrast to the mushroom's fruiting body, which mainly contains beta-glucans. The fermentation process takes approximately forty days. The mycelia are cultivated in a specially developed liquid culture medium based on rice bran. During the fermentation process, the mycelia convert components of the medium into other nutrients. This creates the unique composition of AHCC®, which is not comparable to simply dried shiitake powder. After forty days, the insoluble cellular components are separated by centrifugation, leaving a liquid ('supernatant') rich in alpha-glucans and other nutrients. After freeze-drying, AHCC® powder is finally made from this, which can be processed into capsules. By not using heat anywhere in the production process, the delicate natural components in the extract are preserved. Producer Amino Up, like Vitals, has a great passion for quality and invests heavily in the scientific substantiation of the quality of their products. In addition, their production processes and quality system meet the highest standards. This is necessary because mycelia are very sensitive to environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and other microorganisms. Mushroom mycelia can therefore best thrive under strictly controlled conditions and only then ensure a nutrient-rich end product. In Japan, Amino Up has been collaborating with leading scientists for years. AHCC® is therefore a widely used food supplement there, unlike in Europe where it is not (yet) so well known. AHCC® is a precious and well-kept secret from the East! Permitted health claims: None.
