Maitake, or dancing mushroom, is a very popular mushroom and is currently grown all over the world. Traditional Chinese medicine believes in its cleansing effects and has been using it for thousands of years.

We have all the fungal raw material tested in the German independent laboratory Agrolab for more than 500 types of known heavy metals, pesticides and human-dangerous microorganisms. We also test PAHs and radioactivity. We test each batch. No other manufacturer in the Czech Republic offers such extensive tests (if he says yes, request them). And for mushrooms, such tests are very important.

Maitake (Grifola frondosa, translated as the dancing fungus, this name is based on the reactions of seekers who danced with joy when they found this amazing and highly prized fungus) is a chorus-like parasitic fungus with a fruiting body that has the shape of a large tuft, which is formed by legs with up to many hundreds of fused hats. The Maitake fruiting body thus reaches a width of up to 100 cm. It grows at the bases of trees and stumps. Maitake is native to Asia and North America, but is now widespread throughout the world and is also grown commercially.

Maitake is popular in culinary delights, has a rich delicate taste and a very pleasant aroma, but is even better known as a vital fungus used for thousands of years in traditional Chinese medicine, while "Western cultures" first described it in 1785 by Scottish mycologist James. J. Dickson. Maitake contains many biologically active substances, starting with vitamins, polysaccharides, proteoglycans (D-fractions), phenols, flavonoids, ending with unsaturated fatty acids.

Recommended dosage

  • Increased dose: 3-10 capsules a day (it is advisable to consult a doctor or a Chinese medicine practitioner)
  • Usual dose: 1-2 capsules a day 
  • We recommend taking it always 5 days a week and skipping 2 days
  • Take the capsules on an empty stomach (at least 30 minutes before or 60 minutes after a meal), drink water or weak green tea
  • When using vital mushrooms, we recommend increasing the intake of vitamin C, which increases the absorption of active ingredients. For example, in the form of an extract of the Brazilian cherry Acerola.
