Organic Maitake 400mg - 60 capsules
What is Maitake?
Maitake (oak tenderloin) is an edible mushroom native to Japan, North America and Europe. It is a mushroom that mainly grows on the roots of hardwood trees, such as oak and beech. Maitake has been used in traditional Japanese and Chinese medicine for centuries for its purported health benefits. In Japan, maitake is also called "dancing mushroom" because of the joy this mushroom can bring to those who find it.
There are several ways in which maitake mushrooms can be consumed, including as dietary supplements in powder or capsule form, as well as in dishes such as soups, sauces and stir-fries.
Maitake supplements
Maitake mushrooms are often considered a healthy food choice due to their high nutrient content. Maitake is also used as a dietary supplement due to its high concentration of polysaccharides, such as beta-glucans, which can have a prebiotic effect.
Mattisson Maitake capsules
Our organic maitake capsules contain 100% fruiting body. The extraction process of these capsules is also high-quality, using an 11:1 extract of the mushroom extracted via hot water extraction. This means that for every gram of maitake extract we use, we have used 10 grams of maitake powder to ensure that our supplements contain the best quality and concentration of nutrients.
Warning
Although maitake mushrooms are generally considered safe, some people may be allergic to mushrooms and these people should use caution when eating maitake. Additionally, maitake mushrooms may interfere with some medications, so it is always important to consult your doctor before adding large amounts of any new food to your diet.
