Active Hexose Correlated Compound (ahcc) Overview
Active Hexose Correlated Compound (AHCC) is a proprietary dietary supplement recognized for its potential immune-boosting properties, derived from the mycelia of Basidiomycota mushrooms, including shiitake (Lentinula edodes). Rich in alpha-glucans, AHCC is soluble in water and remains stable, with the additional advantage of enhanced intestinal solubility through micro-coating with candelilla wax. Within Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), AHCC has found extensive application for various health conditions, particularly in addressing liver damage. Research and traditional usage suggest AHCC may support immune function and mitigate chemotherapy-related side effects, prompting further investigations into its mechanisms and potential benefits.
