Description :
Lentinus Edodes - Part used : Mushroom
A valuable Asian mushroom
This Asian mushroom has been known for centuries, not only for its gastronomic qualities (a delicate anise flavour), but also as early as the fourteenth century for its medicinal characteristics. It has long been acknowledged as a "life keeper". It contains trace elements, minerals, vitamins, amino acids, and polysaccharids (lentinan and AC2P) that act together to keep the metabolism in good condition. Shii-ta-ke is useful in cases of fatigue (whether mental, physical, or sexual), for protection against infectious diseases, and for slowing down the ageing process.
