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.

  •  

    ALCOHOL-FREE, GLYCERIN BASE: Our extract is 100% alcohol-free, made with a smooth vegetable glycerin base and purified water.

  •  

    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.

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 - an alcohol-free glycerite and a traditional alcohol-based tincture - 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 alcohol-free and tincture versions?
Both are liquid extracts of the same Lentinula edodes mushroom; only the solvent differs. The alcohol-free version is a glycerite made with vegetable glycerin and purified water, suited to those who avoid alcohol. The tincture uses alcohol as the traditional solvent, with vegetable glycerin and water. Both deliver the mushroom's constituents in a convenient liquid you take by the drop. Choose the glycerite if you prefer no alcohol; choose the tincture for a classic alcohol-extracted format with a longer shelf life.
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 3 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. This alcohol-free glycerite is best refrigerated after opening. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
