FEATURES AND DESCRIPTION:

GLUTEN FREE
Expertly extracted
Shiitake Tincture contains ONLY natural ingredients
High Quality Shiitake liquid extract - we use classic conventional methods of extraction. We meticulously produce our extracts according to precise standards where each mushroom is extracted according to its distinct characteristic.
Concentrated Shiitake liquid extract (traditional alcohol tincture)
We strictly use ethically sourced raw material, organic alcohol, and vegetable glycerin USP

Shiitake Mushroom (Lentinula Edodes) is a popular edible mushroom of East Asia. It grows naturally on hardwood and oak logs, which is why it is sometimes called the oak mushroom, black forest mushroom, or Chinese black mushroom; in Chinese it is xiang gu. The part used here is the mushroom itself - the fruiting body. Shiitake is one of the most widely eaten gourmet mushrooms in the world.

WHOLE-MUSHROOM LIQUID EXTRACT: Made from the dried fruiting body of Lentinula edodes, carrying the mushroom's natural spectrum of constituents rather than an isolated or standardized single compound.
TRADITIONAL ALCOHOL EXTRACTION: A classic alcohol-based tincture, made with organic alcohol, vegetable glycerin, and water, for a concentrated extract with a long shelf life.
NATURAL CONSTITUENTS: Shiitake naturally contains polysaccharides such as beta-glucans, along with B vitamins and vitamin D.
THE WHOLE MUSHROOM, NOT AN ISOLATE: This is a whole-mushroom extract of the fruiting body - not AHCC (a mycelia extract) and not isolated lentinan.
CLEARLY LABELED: Labeled by botanical name and part, so there is no confusion with the culinary mushroom or with isolated shiitake ingredients.

Lentinula edodes - Shiitake, Xiang Gu

Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) is one of the most prized mushrooms of East Asia, valued in the kitchen for centuries. Our Shiitake tincture captures the dried fruiting body in a concentrated, alcohol-based liquid extract.

About our Shiitake Tincture:

We start with quality shiitake mushroom and use a classic, conventional alcohol extraction with organic alcohol, vegetable glycerin, and water. It is a whole-mushroom extract - not an isolate - carrying the mushroom's natural profile. This is Lentinula edodes, the shiitake.

Suggested use: Shake well before use. Adults take 20-30 drops (approximately 1 ml, one full squeeze of the dropper) in 2 oz of water, tea, or juice, up to four times a day, or as directed by your practitioner. See the safety information below. Drink the entire contents.*

Additional information about ingredients: Contains NO gluten or artificial color.

Suggested Use: Do not use if seal is broken or missing. Store in a cool, dry place.

Safety information: Shiitake is a food mushroom and is generally well tolerated. Taking large amounts, or consuming shiitake raw, can cause a distinctive skin rash known as shiitake dermatitis in some people, so do not exceed the suggested serving. If you are allergic to mushrooms, do not use it. Because shiitake can interact with the immune system, use caution and speak with your practitioner first if you have an autoimmune condition or take medication that suppresses the immune system.

Frequently Asked Questions about Shiitake Extract

What is Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) mushroom extract?

Shiitake is a popular edible mushroom of East Asia, botanically Lentinula edodes (formerly called Lentinus edodes). It grows naturally on hardwood and oak logs, which is why it is sometimes called the oak mushroom, black forest mushroom, or Chinese black mushroom; in Chinese it is xiang gu. The part used here is the mushroom itself - the fruiting body. Shiitake is one of the most widely eaten gourmet mushrooms in the world, and it naturally contains polysaccharides such as beta-glucans, along with B vitamins and vitamin D. Our extract is offered in two forms - a traditional alcohol-based tincture and an alcohol-free glycerite - each from carefully sourced raw material. This is a whole-mushroom liquid extract that carries the mushroom's natural spectrum of constituents, not an isolated or standardized single-compound product, and we label it clearly by botanical name and part.

What is the difference between the tincture and alcohol-free versions?

Both are liquid extracts of the same Lentinula edodes mushroom; only the solvent differs. The tincture uses alcohol as the traditional solvent, with vegetable glycerin and water. The alcohol-free version is a glycerite made with vegetable glycerin and purified water, suited to those who avoid alcohol. Both deliver the mushroom's constituents in a convenient liquid you take by the drop. Choose the tincture for a classic alcohol-extracted format with a longer shelf life; choose the glycerite if you prefer no alcohol.

Is this the cooking shiitake, AHCC, or lentinan?

It is the shiitake mushroom itself, prepared as a liquid extract - so here is how it differs from those other things. First, the cooking mushroom: shiitake is a beloved culinary mushroom, sold fresh and dried; our product is a concentrated liquid supplement extract of the mushroom, not the culinary mushroom you cook with. Second, AHCC and lentinan: shiitake is also the source of two isolated ingredients sold on their own - AHCC, which is an extract of shiitake mycelia, and lentinan, which is a single polysaccharide. Our product is neither of those - it is a whole-mushroom extract of the fruiting body, not AHCC and not isolated lentinan. We label our product clearly by botanical name (Lentinula edodes) and part (mushroom fruiting body) so there is no confusion with the culinary mushroom or with isolated shiitake ingredients.

How do I use Shiitake liquid extract?

Shake well before use. Adults take 20-30 drops (approximately 1 ml, one full squeeze of the dropper) in 2 oz of water, tea, or juice, up to 4 times daily, or as directed by your practitioner. See the safety note below. Drink the entire contents.

Is Shiitake extract right for everyone? Safety and storage.

Shiitake is a food mushroom and is generally well tolerated, but a few notes apply. Eating shiitake raw or taking large amounts can cause a distinctive skin rash known as shiitake dermatitis in some people, so do not exceed the suggested serving. If you are allergic to mushrooms, do not use it. Some people notice mild digestive upset, such as gas, with mushroom products. Because shiitake can interact with the immune system, use caution and speak with your practitioner first if you have an autoimmune condition or take medication that suppresses the immune system. If you are pregnant or nursing, take any medication, or have a medical condition, also consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use. Keep out of reach of children, and do not exceed the suggested serving. Store this tincture in a cool, dark place. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

ETHICALLY SOURCED, NATURAL INGREDIENTS 100% natural

Our Shiitake (Lentinula Edodes) Mushroom is selected from regions with optimal growing conditions to support a high concentration of active constituents. We work only with trusted suppliers and focus on sourcing clean, well-preserved botanical material suitable for high-quality liquid extraction.

As a solvent, we use alcohol to preserve the integrity of the extract and support a clean extraction process.

To verify botanical identity and ensure consistency, all raw materials are tested in our laboratory using established analytical techniques. These include High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) for plant authentication and fingerprinting, or Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and other in-house methods. Our approach is guided by relevant standards such as those of the USP and Ph. Eur., ISO 17025 and cGLP, allowing us to maintain rigorous quality control, ensuring the material meets our specifications for identity, purity and composition.

METICULOUS EXTRACT PREPARATION

Hawaii Pharm determines the optimal herb-to-menstruum ratio for each botanical. For alcohol-based extracts, we use a carefully balanced alcohol blend to ensure maximum extraction of active compounds while preserving the plant's natural integrity.
Our master herbalists analyze each batch and adjust extraction parameters as needed, ensuring consistent quality despite natural variations in botanical sources.
The result is a potent, stable liquid extract that captures the full spectrum of the botanical's benefits.

COMPREHENSIVE LABORATORY TESTING

Every batch undergoes multiple quality assurance tests including:

Organoleptic evaluation (color, consistency, aroma)
FTIR and/or HPTLC spectral analysis for identity confirmation
Microbiological testing (total plate count, E. coli, coliforms)
Yeast and mold screening
Alcohol content verification
Viscosity measurement
Refractometric analysis
