Description
MGD Shiitake box of 120 capsules
Otherwise known as oak lentin, Lentinus edodes, is a forest fungus growing spontaneously on the rotting trunks of certain woody species in the humid forests of Asia.
Etymologically, shiitake means "that which grows quickly on the shii tree." The shii is a tree from the humid forests of the southern coasts of Japan and South Korea, of which no specimens have been found in Europe, but which is relatively close to the oak or the chestnut tree.
In Japan, where it is revered for its many virtues, its nickname is the “samurai mushroom”.
Shiitake contains a number of beneficial molecules including lentinan (beta-D-glucan).
It is the best-studied mushroom. Indeed, numerous scientific studies have been conducted in China, Japan, and the United States. They have allowed us to understand its properties, hence its recent use as a dietary supplement.
