Certifed pure & potent
It's important that your supplement contains everything it should (like the listed ingredients, at the listed potencies)and nothing it shouldn't (like contaminants and adulterants). That's why we always subject our finished products to 7 quality assurance tests.
We source only the best.
We select the most bioavailable forms of vitamins, minerals, botanicals,peptides, amino acids, and coenzymes, so you absorb and utilize what you take. We opt for concentrated herbal extracts, standardized to contain precise amounts of herbal actives, to ensure consistency from batch to batchand bottle to bottle. We focus on ingredients that are released slowly over time, so your blood levels stay consistently elevated and you can reap more benefits.
We manufacture with care.
Most of our supplements are manufactured in a state-of-the-art 70,000-square foot manufacturing facility certified by NSF International, the world's foremost quality control certifier for nutritional supplements. This facility is equipped with a pioneering laboratory, allowing for quality control testing at each stage of production. Our products are packaged in amber glass bottles with metal caps -which protects their contents against moisture, oxygen, and light -and sealed with a tamper proof band.
We test, test, and test again.
We test each of our raw materials and finished products for identity, purity, strength, and composition, ensuring that what's on the label is what's in the bottle. We also perform dissolution testing to ensure our capsules dissolve properly and release their contents into your gut. Finally, we subject our products to accelerated stability testing to make sure they remain potent not just at the time of manufacture but by the time they reach your door.

What is AHCC?
AHCC is a patented, low-molecular weight medicinal mushroom extract developed from the mycelia (or underground portion) of a particular subspecies of Lentinulo edodes. Supported by more than 30 human clinical studies, AHCC prompts an early activation of the immune system,* It works by enhancing the production of cytokines (immune-signaling molecules) and increasing the activity of certain white blood cells, including NK cells, DC cells, T-cells, and macrophages,*

We obsess over things like bioavailability,standardization, molecular weight, dissolution,permeability, and well-controlled human clinical trials. It's because we believe that attention to science makes supplements that work.
Frequently Asked Questions
If l am allergic to mushrooms, can I take AHCC?
If l am allergic to mushrooms, can I take AHCC?
Alergiesto mushrooms are most often associated with exposure to mushroom sporess, These spores originate in the top of the mushroom,called the fruiting body. However, AHCC is derived from the mycelia, or the root of the mushroom, which does not contain spores,In addition,as part of the manufacturing process,the raw material is subjected to a fermentation process that breaks down the high molecular weight molecules that are very tough to digest into low molecular weight compounds., This process further lowers any allergenic potentia. Many people who believe they are allergic to mushrooms take AHCC successfully. However, if you are concerned, please check with a healthcare professional that specializes in natural products or begin taking AHCC very slowly.This canbe done by starting with a quarter of acapsule on the tip of your tongue and if you don't experience itching in your mouth or other signs of allergy, work your way up to 2 to 6 capsules per day over a period of several days.
Does AHCC lose its effectiveness over time?
Does AHCC lose its effectiveness over time?
No AHCC does not lose its effectiveness over time.As shown in an AHCC placebo-controlled scientific trlal. patients who used AHCC regularly over aten-year period had consistent and significant improvement as compared to the placebo group, therefore showing no signs of the ingredient losing effectiveness.*
Does AHCC lose its effectiveness over time?
Does AHCC lose its effectiveness over time?
No AHCC does not lose its effectiveness overtime. As shown in an AHCC placebo-controlled scientific tral. patients who used AHCC regqularly over a ten-year period had consistent and significant improvement as compared to the placebo group, therefore showing no signs of the ingredient losing effectiveness.
Can AHCC be taken with other medications?
Can AHCC be taken with other medications?
Two studies conducted at the highly prestigious MD Anderson Cancer Center and published in the .Journal of integrative Oncology explored AHCC interaction with other medications. These studies determined that AHCC is metabolized via a pathway called -P450 2D6, meaning that AHCC has the potential to increase or decrease the absorption of a drug that uses the same pathway.
Therefore if you are taking another medication and are concerned about possible interactions, we recommend you ask a medical professional if the drug you are taking is metabolized through the cytochrome P450 2D6 class of enzymes.Most lkely,the answer will be 'no,' which meansthat AHCC is highly unlikely to interact with the drug you are taking.
