Micotherapy SHIITAKE BIO (Lentinus edodes) da 90 capsule vegetali – AVD REFORM

Chiamato anche “Re dei funghi”, lo Shiitake è stato tradizionalmente utilizzato in oriente per potenziare la risposta immunitaria, per promuovere la longevità e per il mantenimento della salute e del benessere psicofisico.

Lo Shiitake è ricco in molecole bioattive, micro e macronutrienti, minerali, aminoacidi, vitamine, enzimi, fibre e metaboliti secondari. Tra gli aminoacidi ci sono buone quantità di acido glutammico, chiamato anche “brain food”, un nutrimento per il cervello, che favorisce la produzione di neurotrasmettitori e il trasporto del potassio a livello cerebrale. Contiene elevati livelli di polisaccaridi (betaglucani) tra cui il Lentinan, un betaglucano ramificato (β 1-3 β 1-6) che ha evidenziato importanti proprietà di immunomodulazione. Una sostanza particolarmente efficace contenuta nello Shiitake è l’eritadenina, considerata il componente bioattivo più importante responsabile dell’abbassamento dei livelli di colesterolo.

INGREDIENTI: Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) sporophorum, da agricoltura biologica (IT BIO 006), Capsula in cellulosa vegetale

Modalità di assunzione:

3 capsule al giorno preferibilmente lontano dai pasti.
