AHCC Powder

What is AHCC?

AHCC powder is produced from basidiomycete mushroom bodies cultivated over a long period of time and contains a large amount of small molecule glucan. AHCC has been proven to help improve immunity and protect liver function.

So far, AHCC has accumulated more than 100 clinical trials, showing that it can effectively help cancer patients. It is being used in more than 1,000 hospitals and is known as the most effective health product for enhancing immune function in Japan.

AHCC is the abbreviation of Active Hexose Correlated Compound, Shiitake mushroom extract AHCC. Polysaccharides account for 40% of the chemical structure of AHCC. These include beta glucan and acetyl alpha glucan. Acetyl alpha glucan is the ingredient that makes AHCC different from other mushroom health foods.

For patients with the disease, beta glucan has a larger molecule, so it is not easily digested and absorbed. On the contrary, acetyl alpha glucan has a smaller molecule (molecular weight of about 5,000 Daltons) and is easily absorbed by the body, thus exerting an immune activation effect. .

AHCC is generally used to improve diseases caused by lifestyle habits, such as liver disease, diabetes, etc., especially for the immune range of severe cases. AHCC is a product with great potential.

In addition, according to research data presented at the 11th International Conference of the American Society of Integrated Intensive Care (SIO) in 2014, AHCC can help eradicate persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.

What are the benefits?

1. Activate immune cells and regulate the immune system

The main function of AHCC is to increase the activity of white blood cells and lymphocytes, allowing them to directly attack abnormal diseased cells produced in the body, abnormal cells mutated by virus invasion, or invading foreign pathogens.

AHCC does not directly kill mutated cells like drugs, but stimulates immune function cells to indirectly fight severe disease and regulate the body's balance.

According to a large number of basic research results, AHCC can not only maintain a good balance of the human immune system, but also improve the immune capacity of the whole body.

For people with most conditions, having good immunity can help them endure or receive better treatment and less pain.

2. Reduce the side effects of chemotherapy drugs

Side effects caused by chemotherapy drugs include nausea, vomiting, hair loss, loss of appetite, impaired liver function, reduction of white blood cells and platelets, and reduction of red blood cells (the cause of anemia).

These side effects not only cause unbearable pain, but sometimes lead to reduced immunity and survival ability. According to research, through actual observation of many patients and verification through animal testing, the concurrent use of chemotherapy and radiotherapy with AHCC can effectively reduce the side effects of chemotherapy drugs.

3. Protect and improve liver function

The liver is known to have a detoxifying role, but can be damaged when overtaxed. When patients receive chemotherapy, the organ that suffers the most damage is the liver. Therefore, liver function damage is one of the most serious side effects in anti-severe treatment.

After injecting the anti-severe drugs 6-MP (6-mercaptoprine) and MTX (methotrexate) into mice, one group was fed AHCC® and the other group was not fed AHCC® to observe liver function damage. In mice taking anti-severe drugs and taking AHCC® at the same time, serum sGOT and sGPT, indicators of liver function, remained almost normal. In contrast, mice treated only with anti-severe drugs had very high index values.

Research has proven that AHCC can not only improve liver function, but also effectively prevent liver function damage caused by anti-severe drugs.

4.Animal studies have shown that AHCC has antioxidant effects and can prevent many diseases caused by oxidative stress; enhance resistance to bacterial and viral infections; and have good effects on colitis. Intentional studies in healthy subjects aged 50 years and older showed that AHCC improved T-cell immune responses by enhancing the production of interferon-1 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha 30 days after treatment.

In healthy people, AHCC increases dendritic cell number and function, and short-term supplementation of AHCC improves antibody responses to influenza vaccines.

Application direction

Pure AHCC powder is an easily available nutritional supplement that can be used to improve the innate immune system. Human and preclinical studies have shown that AHCC increases the number and/or activity of natural killer cells (NK), dendritic cells, and cytokines, which help the body fight infection and stop tumor growth.

AHCC has significant effects on a variety of diseases, including HPV. It is hoped that through more research in the future, more people can receive help from AHCC.
