AHCC - Active Hexose Correlated Compound

 Active hexose related compounds are rich in alpha-glucans and are produced from the mycelium of the basidiomycete Lentinula edodes. Basidiomycete mycelia were cultured in a large tank for 45-60 days. Several species of mycelium are initially cultured to form a colony (a group of mycelia). After the cultivation is completed, the product must undergo fermentation reaction, sterilization, concentration and freeze-drying.


AHCC is composed of 40% polysaccharides. The polysaccharide component includes β-glucan and acetylated α-glucan. AHCC's unique acetylated alpha-glucan is produced from cultured mushroom mycelium. Glucans are polysaccharides known for their immune-boosting properties. Acetylated alpha-glucans of low molecular weight (approximately 5000 Daltons) are more readily absorbed into the body than beta-glucans of higher molecular weight. Beta-glucans have a molecular weight of approximately 50,000 to 100,000 Daltons.


Modern science has found that mushrooms are rich in a variety of essential amino acids (especially lysine), various trace elements and vitamins, and the most important mushroom polysaccharides. Mushroom polysaccharides are macromolecules extracted from the fruiting bodies of mushrooms. water-soluble proteoglycan,

Including α-glucan and β-glucan, Tremella polysaccharide, etc. The polysaccharides in mushrooms can regulate biological responses and stimulate the body's immune system.


What are the benefits of AHCC?

The main function of AHCC is to increase the activity of white blood cells and lymphocytes, so that they can directly attack abnormal diseased cells produced in the body and abnormal cells mutated by virus invasion or foreign invading pathogens. It does not directly kill mutated cells like anticancer drugs, but stimulates immune function cells, indirectly fights severe diseases, and regulates the balance of the body.

The immune system is vital to our health, protecting us from pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, and toxins. As we age, our immune system becomes weaker. To help aging populations, scientists around the world are researching ways to boost the body's immunity.

According to a large number of basic research results, AHCC can improve the immune system of the whole body while maintaining a good balance of the human immune system pain.

What are the popular weight loss ingredients on the market?

  In the fast-paced era, staying up late, lack of exercise, and eating takeaways have become the three major habits of young people's lives. The problems of heavy oil and salt, drinking alcohol, and heavy sugar addiction are common among adults of different ages, and these bad habits can lead to obesity more or less. Losing weight has become an urgent need for adults of different ages. The plant extract industry has many raw materials with weight loss effects. The following extracts are mainly introduced: 1. Gymnema Sylvestre: Also known as Gymnema Sylvestre, a perennial woody climbing dicotyledon, mainly distributed in south-central India and southern China. 2. Mulberry leaf extract. It is made from mulberry leaf (Morus alba L.) through water extraction, microfiltration, ultrafiltration, spray drying, and other processes. It contains mulberry leaf flavonoids, mulberry leaf Polyphenols, mulberry leaf polysaccharides, alkaloids, and other physiologically active substances. 3. White ...

Does green coffee bean extract help you lose weight?

Obesity is a global disease. In the global population, one out of every three people has the problem of being overweight. Overweight and obese adults are more likely to suffer from chronic diseases, including morbidity and mortality from diseases such as hypertension, diabetes and arteriosclerosis. Green coffee bean is a kind of fresh coffee bean that has not been copied. It contains chlorogenic acid, which is a plant polyphenol. It is one of the very important ingredients for weight loss. It can accelerate metabolism and eliminate fat deposits and excess sugar in cells. Break down fat and prevent excess fat from accumulating in the body. In addition, it can also improve the circulatory system of the digestive process, reduce the reabsorption of fat, and help control blood pressure, blood sugar or blood lipids. Taking green coffee bean extract to lose weight, most people will complete the whole process of losing weight without knowing it. The slimming ingredients contained in green cof...

What are the applications of supercritical CO2 extraction technology in plant extraction?

  Supercritical CO2 extraction technology has the advantages of energy saving, purity, rapidity, high efficiency, and simple operation because it combines rectification and liquid-liquid extraction, and plays an important role in the extraction and separation of effective components of traditional Chinese medicine. 1. Extraction of volatile oil The volatile oil is sensitive to high heat, acid, and alkali, and is easily destroyed when extracted by traditional steam distillation, with low efficiency. At present, there is much research literature on the application of supercritical carbon dioxide to extract volatile oil, and the yield of the obtained product is high and the integrity of the components can be maintained. The researchers used organic solvent extraction (SE), steam distillation extraction (SDE), and supercritical carbon dioxide extraction (SFE-CO2) to extract celery seed oil. The results showed that the celery seed oil obtained by supercritical carbon dioxide extraction...
