WHAT DOES IT DO?
According to the manufacturer:
"Of all the medicinal mushrooms we use from Traditional East Asian Medicine the one most studied by modern scientists is probably the one least known outside of Asia.
Commonly known as the "turkey tail" in North America, Coriolus versicolor (also known as Trametes versicolor), is unique among the medicinal mushrooms, with extensive use in both traditional herbalism and modern clinical practice.
The focus of the modern clinical use and research (over 400 published studies), has been the immuno-modulating properties of the hot water extracted polysaccharides. Originally isolated from the fruiting body (the mushroom), sales for these unique all-natural compounds have reached several hundred million dollars a year in Japan and China, making them the most widely used products in those countries by people facing serious immune challenges.
Under NMR analysis the glucan portion of PSP is almost identical to that of PSK and VPS; however, due to variations in fermentation media and extraction methods, there are some differences. PSP contains arabinose and rhamnose as single sugars but no fucose. The material used in the Japanese research (PSK) and VPS contains fucose, but no arabinose. Also, PSK and VPS contain protein in the non-polysaccharide portion of the molecule, PSP contains peptides."
CAUTIONS
