Maitake Extract Demonstrates Immunostimulating Properties
In a study published in the Journal of the American Nutraceutical Association, researcher and author Dr. Vaclav Vetvicka of the University of Louisville compared the immunostimulating properties of two different maitake mushroom glucan extracts, one being Tradeworks Group, Inc.’s MaitakeGold 404, against Lentinan, a pharmaceutical that contains a standard, well-researched mushroom-derived beta-glucan. The study showed that MaitakeGold 404, when compared with the other maitake extract and Lentinan, had the highest level of stimulation in the greatest number of immune categories tested. In the study, MaitakeGold 404 via oral administration caused direct stimulation of cells involved in immune reactions as well as the release of numerous cytokines necessary for immune response and defense. MaitakeGold 404 was also shown to be effective even in relatively small doses compared to the other tested agents.
