polysaccharides (realistic 33-34%)
Shiitake or edible mushroom or Lentinula edodes in Latin is called the "queen of mushrooms" or "elixir of life" due to its composition. It is very rich in essential amino acids, minerals, B vitamins, provitamin D2 and many other bioactive substances.
According to traditional Chinese medicine, the vital Shiitake mushroom supports the human centre. We could say digestion. Our center is controlled by the Pi (Spleen) system, which is responsible for the production of Qi energy and blood. Qi and blood are the foundation of a person's vitality and form the material basis of their defenses. Shiitake also has a tropism for Fei (Spleen). Thus, it is clear that Shiitake can prepare our organism to clash with external pathogenic energy.
MycoMedica Shiitake is grown on a substrate that consists of a mixture of sawdust, organic wheat bran, cane sugar and natural gypsum.

Just like you, we want to be absolutely sure that our mushrooms are 100% effective and safe. That's why we subject them to the most stringent tests on the market, not only for harmful substances, but also for effective ones such as polysaccharides, beta-glucans, terpenes, etc.
Mushrooms like to take in all sorts of substances from the environment in which they grow. In order to ensure that nothing unwanted gets into ours, we actually test them all the time: from harvesting to production to the finished product. You could say we are obsessed with testing.
We test MycoMedica mushrooms in laboratories in the USA, Ireland, Germany, as well as at the University of Science and Technology in Prague. We don't do random tests, but honestly test all mushroom raw material at all stages of the process. Top-notch facilities look for more than 350 harmful substances in mushrooms for us. For example:
The tests we carry out are far more demanding than those required by legislation. We can attach a report to each individual capsule and tell you exactly where it came from.
Our mushrooms have been achieving excellent results in tests for 15 years.
We also test the active ingredients
Testing the polysaccharide content of our vital mushrooms is standard procedure for us to ensure the highest quality products. We guarantee a high content of polysaccharides, the most effective component of which is betaglucans, which are known for their benefits to the immune system. This guarantees that our mushrooms are not only pure, but also maximally effective.
