- Supports Healthy Immune System Defense - Dehydrated Hot Water Extract - 25% Polysaccharide - High potency extract contains both PSK and PSP Other Names: Coriolus versicolor, Kawaratake, Yun zhi, Turkey Tail. With over 300 scientific studies documenting the powerful immune building properties of this mushroom, Coriolus versicolor has become the number one selling medicinal mushroom in the world. Rich in polysaccharides and other immune boosting compounds, our high potency extract contains both PSK and PSP, the most active components in Coriolus, and some of the first all natural extracts used in Traditional Chinese Medicine to be fully backed by modern clinical research. Clinical Research: The research suggests that the polysaccharide portion of the extract may enhance the cell-mediated immune response.* Although the mechanism of action is not clearly understood, the 1-4,1-3 proteoglycans act as a biological response modifier and have been found to support and enhance Natural Killer cell function, to stimulate depressed lymphocyte proliferation, and to support the healthy growth of white blood cells.*1,2,3 Also, the research shows these constituents to be effective in supporting normal cell growth, improving cell-mediated cytotoxicity, and increasing interleukin-2 production and T-cell proliferation.*4,5,6 Ingredients: Coriolus Mushroom Extract, in an all vegetarian capsule. Suggested Use: Take 1-4 capsules daily, or more as recommended by your health care professional.
