AHCC 500 mg shiitake + alpha-glucans, 180 capsules

Shiitake mushroom extract (Lentinula edodes)

AHCC® has been produced by the renowned Japanese company Amino Up Co. since 1989 using a fermentation process that has been continually refined over the years. It is assumed that the same starter culture is used for each production. This ensures that the final product is of high quality and consistently has the same composition. A patented process ensures a high alpha-glucan content. These are polysaccharides that occur only in small amounts in shiitake mushrooms. The fermentation lasts approximately forty days. The shiitake mushroom is cultivated on a unique liquid growth medium made from rice bran. During fermentation the shiitake converts components of the medium into other nutrients. This results in the unique composition of AHCC®, which differs from conventionally dried shiitake mushrooms. After forty days the insoluble cellular components are separated by centrifugation. A liquid (“supernatant”) forms that is rich in alpha-glucans and other nutrients. After the spray-drying process AHCC® powder is ultimately produced, which can be filled into capsules. The manufacturing method ensures that the delicate natural constituents of the extract are preserved.

Vitals, our new brand from 2025

We are constantly on the lookout for brands that represent our ideals: highest quality, the consistent omission of unnecessary additives such as titanium dioxide or porcine gelatin, excellent value for money and absolute reliability in delivery to us and thus to our customers.
This is very difficult because such companies are extremely rare among the mass of dietary supplement manufacturers now on the market. But we have once again managed to find one with Vitals from the Netherlands!

Address of the manufacturer: Vitals Voedingssupplementen BV, Pieter Lieftinckweg 29, 1505 HX Zaandam, Netherlands. E-mail: kundendienst@vitals.eu.
