    Benefits

    Food supplement

    The AHCC® (Active Hexose Correlated Compound) is a patented extract obtained through a fermentation process from the culture of shiitake mycelium cells (Lentinula edodes), a mushroom traditionally consumed in Asia. AHCC® has been the subject of numerous scientific studies demonstrating its efficacy.

    Shiitake, also called oak mushroom, is one of the most iconic mushrooms of Asian tradition. Native to East Asia, it naturally grows on the trunks and stumps of deciduous trees, especially oak. Its dark brown cap, sometimes marked with light cracks, and its firm flesh with a woody aroma give it a visually and gastronomically immediately recognizable identity.

    Its Japanese name, shii-také, literally means "Pasania oak mushroom," referring to the tree on which it grows. Cultivated for over a thousand years, shiitake is an essential mushroom. Symbol of longevity and vitality, it is often associated with strength and prosperity.

    Moreover, shiitake contains numerous active molecules. It includes a wide variety of polysaccharides, including beta-glucans, alpha-glucans, and lentinan, as well as amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. This diversity of constituents gives shiitake a unique signature among mushrooms.

    At the crossroads of tradition and modernity, shiitake remains today one of the most cultivated and studied mushrooms in the world. Remarkable for its millennial history, characteristic appearance, and biochemical richness, it perfectly illustrates the link between nature, culture, and science.

    Why choose MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® AHCC® ?

    MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® AHCC® is a unique combination of patented Shiitake AHCC® (Active Hexose Correlated Compound) culture extract and 2 microencapsulated microbiota strains.

    THERASCIENCE Laboratory has rigorously selected a patented Shiitake AHCC® extract derived from shiitake cell culture (Lentinula edodes). Furthermore, AHCC® is standardized in acylated alpha-glucans of low molecular weight (about 5,000 Daltons), a unique structure that promotes rapid and optimal absorption.

    Additionally, AHCC® has been the subject of numerous scientific and clinical publications.

    Our optimally dosed formula combines 1 g of AHCC® extract standardized to 18% alpha-glucans with 4 billion CFU* of 2 microbiota strains: Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Bifidobacterium animalis lactis BS01, for 2 gastro-resistant capsules.

     

    For enhanced naturalness, MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® AHCC® is suitable for vegans thanks to its 100% plant-based capsules. This choice ensures an approach in perfect harmony with quality and efficacy requirements.

    What does science say?

    The bioactives present in MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® AHCC® have been thoroughly evaluated by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA): 

    However, to date, European legislation has not approved any health claims for AHCC® or the microbiota strains.

    Although no specific benefits are officially recognized, these bioactives are generating growing interest and open promising perspectives that deserve exploration.

    The benefits of MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® AHCC®

    Mushroom and microbiota strains

    Our MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® AHCC® formula combines shiitake AHCC® culture extract with two well-documented microbiota strains (Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Bifidobacterium animalis lactis BS01), creating a unique combination between the mushroom and probiotics.

    To ensure optimal efficacy and synergistic action, each of our strains is individually microencapsulated in a plant-based coating layer, specially designed to release the active ingredients in the intestine through Probio-Protect® technology. This way, the strains only come into contact with other actives upon release in the intestinal environment. This protection is reinforced by the use of plant-based gastro-resistant capsules.

    An exclusive patented manufacturing process

    Developed over 30 years ago in Japan, AHCC® is now used in more than 20 countries. Its reliability is based on a solid scientific foundation: nearly 100 scientific publications, including more than 60 referenced on PubMed, and over 30 clinical studies conducted in humans with 1 g of AHCC®, attest to its relevance.

    AHCC® is a patented active ingredient obtained from the fermentation of shiitake cells (Lentinula edodes) carefully selected for their superior activity among several hundred fungal strains.

    This rigorous, unique and patented process includes several successive steps: cultivation of shiitake cells, multi-phase fermentation (in fermenters up to 15,000 L), separation and concentration of active fractions. This production method ensures the stability, purity, and reproducibility of the AHCC® shiitake culture extract.

    During this process, the mushroom’s enzymes naturally convert their polysaccharides into acylated alpha-glucans (α-1,4 glucans), active compounds that have demonstrated efficacy.

    Moreover, the alpha-glucans from AHCC® have a low molecular weight (less than 5,000 Daltons). This unique structure promotes rapid and optimal absorption by the body and contributes to the clinical efficacy of AHCC®. These characteristics give AHCC® a unique action profile.

     

    Standardized Shiitake AHCC® extract, highly concentrated in polysaccharides

    THERASCIENCE Laboratory’s standardized Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) AHCC® culture extract. MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® AHCC® provides, for 2 capsules, 1 g of Shiitake AHCC® culture extract, making our formula highly concentrated.

    Our standardized extract ensures consistent quality, thanks to a rigorous manufacturing process guaranteeing precise dosing of active molecules, particularly alpha-glucans.

    This standardization ensures optimal efficacy, a key requirement for a high-quality dietary supplement.
