What Are Shiitake mushroom extract ?

Shiitake mushroom extract powder is rich in carbohydrates, proteins, amino acids, steroids and other components, and low in fat, and has various biological activities such as anti-oxidation, antibacterial, and liver protection. Lentinus edodes is a well-known medicinal and edible fungus. It has been used as a culinary delicacy and traditional medicine for more than two thousand years in my country.
Shiitake mushroom extract is mainly used as raw materials for medicine and health food. The molecular weight of lentinan in shiitake mushroom is 1 million, and it also contains ingredients for lowering blood lipids ----- shiitake mushroom Taisheng, shiitake mushroom adenine and adenine derivatives. Mushroom extract contains very high unsaturated fatty acids, and also contains a large amount of ergosterol and bacteriosterol that can be converted into vitamin D, which has a good effect on strengthening disease resistance, preventing colds and treating them. Regular consumption is beneficial to the prevention of rickets caused by blood phosphorus and blood calcium metabolism disorders caused by the lack of vitamin D in the human body, especially in infants, and can prevent various mucous membrane and skin inflammations in the human body. Lentysin contained in shiitake mushrooms can prevent arteriosclerosis, lower blood pressure, and also isolate ingredients for lowering serum cholesterol from shiitake mushrooms.

Shiitake mushrooms (Lentinus edodes) have been used for thousands of years in Japan and China. It is known as both a food and a medicinal fungus. Shiitake mushrooms have long been believed to boost energy, treat colds and get rid of intestinal parasites. Shiitake mushrooms contain fat, carbohydrates, protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals. However, its key ingredient is a polysaccharide called lentinan. Lentinan is extracted from the crushed mycelium of shiitake mushrooms, which is rich in polysaccharides and lignin. Using the mycelium that appears before the caps and stems of shiitake mushrooms, crushed shiitake mushroom products may reduce hepatitis B infectivity. Shiitake mushrooms can also stimulate white blood cells to produce interferon. In laboratory studies it has been shown to help boost immunity.

Product Details List

Component properties

The edible portion of dried shiitake mushrooms accounts for 72%, and each 100g dry product contains 18.64g of crude protein, 4.8g of crude fat, 61.4g of sugar, 9.6g of crude fiber, 1548.08kJ of heat, and 5.5g of ash. The main ingredients are as follows:

1. Polysaccharides and proteins
Lentinan is a homogeneous polysaccharide extracted and purified from its fruiting body. It is the main component and has anti-tumor activity. The molecular formula is (C6H10O5)n, and the molecular weight ranges from 16,000 to millions. The proteins in shiitake mushrooms are mainly albumin, gluten, and gliadin (100:63:2), and their molecular weights are mainly from 20kDa to 40kDa. Among them, there are mainly 18 kinds of amino acids that make up protein (the highest content is glutamic acid), including 7 essential amino acids.

2. Steroids
Steroids are a main chemical component in the fat-soluble components of Lentinus edodes, and 100g of new samples contain 103.8mg of total steroids. The compounds that have been isolated from it are common ergosterol and peroxyergosterol.

3. Polyphenols
The content of total polyphenols in shiitake mushrooms was measured to be about 4 mg/g (dry weight) by colorimetry.

4. Fatty acids
Fatty acid compounds account for about 2% in shiitake mushrooms, of which unsaturated fatty acids account for about 77%, mainly including oleic acid (8.3%), linoleic acid (68.8%), linolenic acid (0.6%), saturated fatty acids mainly include palm Acid (19.2%), Stearic Acid (2.7%), Arachidic Acid (0.4%).

5. Nucleotide compounds
Nucleic acid compounds include cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate), cGMP (cyclic guanosine monophosphate), and cCMP (cyclic cytidine monophosphate). The unique purine compounds are mushroom purines, also known as lentinus.

6. Vitamin and mineral compounds
Including calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin B1, B2, niacin and so on.

What Are The Benefits? 

1. Improve the immune function of the body
Lentinan can improve the phagocytic function of mouse peritoneal macrophages, can also promote the production of T lymphocytes, and increase the killing activity of T lymphocytes.

2. Delay aging
The water extract of shiitake mushrooms has a scavenging effect on hydrogen peroxide, and has a certain elimination effect on hydrogen peroxide in the body.

3. Lower blood pressure, lower blood fat, lower cholesterol
Mushrooms contain purine, choline, tyrosine, oxidase, and certain nucleic acid substances, which can lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood lipids, and can prevent arteriosclerosis, liver cirrhosis and other diseases.

4. Treat diseases
Shiitake mushrooms also have a therapeutic effect on diabetes, tuberculosis, infectious hepatitis, neuritis, etc., and can be used for indigestion and constipation.

5. Antiviral effect
Lentinus edodes extract has good antiviral curative effect, almost no toxic and side effects, and is a natural medicine worthy of clinical promotion. Sulfated lentinan inhibits HIV and human T-cell leukemia virus type 1. The mechanism of antiviral action may be that it improves the immunity of infected cells, increases the stability of cell membrane, inhibits cell pathological changes, and promotes cell repair and other functions. The extract (LEM) of Lentinus edodes mycelium can inhibit HIV.
6. Anti-bacterial effect
Lentinus edodes extract powder had a certain inhibitory effect on Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and the antibacterial effect increased significantly with the increase of the concentration of the extract.
7. Immunomodulatory effect
Lentinus edodes extract is an immunomodulator, its function is similar to that of host immune enhancer, it can stimulate the maturation, differentiation and proliferation of immune cells, improve the balance of the host individual, and restore or improve the host cells' response to lymphokines, hormones and other biological factors. Reactive effects of active factors.
8. Antioxidant effect
The water extract of shiitake mushrooms has a scavenging effect on hydrogen peroxide, and its CI50 is 802.25 microliters, and it has a certain scavenging effect on O2 produced by the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system.
9. Liver protection
Lentinan has anti-chronic hepatitis effect. Lentinus purine has been identified as an effective compound for liver protection, and many experiments have confirmed that its liver protection mechanism is to reduce the secretion of lipoproteins in the liver.
10. Others: anti-platelet aggregation, lowering cholesterol, lowering blood pressure, anti-mutagenic effects, etc.

11. Reduce Serum Cholesterol
Shiitake mushrooms have been shown to reduce serum cholesterol. 80% of mushroom fiber is chitin. It is a strong raw material from which hard substances such as the shells of flea eggs and the bodies of crustaceans are made. In a paper published in Japan in 1985, chitin was shown to lower serum cholesterol. Shiitake mushrooms also contain mushroom purines. A 1971 trial showed that purines from shiitake mushrooms lowered cholesterol by 5% to 10%. Another class of cholesterol-fighting substances in shiitake mushrooms is lentinan. According to East-West Publications, shiitake mushroom extracts reduced serum cholesterol by 25 to 45 percent in the blood of mice fed a high-cholesterol diet. It activates the processing and processing of cholesterol in the liver, and the test showed a significant hepatoprotective effect on the test mice affected by the liver-damaging compound.
12. Boosts the immune system
Current research focuses on the function of shiitake mushrooms as an immunostimulant and its ability to fight numerous diseases including atherosclerosis, bacterial and viral infections, etc.
Studies have shown that shiitake mushrooms contain a large number of substances, including shiitake mushroom mycelium (LEM), which has been used in the treatment of patients with viral infections such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) performed well. The antiviral activity of Lentinus edodes LEM may be due to its ability to induce the production of natural chemicals such as interferons that produce immunity to virus-infected cells.
Shiitake mushrooms have also been studied for their ability to reduce blood clotting; therefore, it is often highlighted that patients taking blood thinners must avoid excessive consumption of shiitake mushrooms for an extended period of time because of their anticoagulant properties.

What Are The Application Directions?

Shiitake mushroom extract powder is mainly used as raw materials for medicine and health food.
