The primary active
compounds in Polyporus (Grifola Umbellata) are
polysaccharides composed of beta(1-3) (1-6) D-glucans.
The triple helices in high-molecular-weight
beta-D-glucans are believed to be responsible
for considerable immune system activity.
Traditional use
Polyporus has
a diuretic effect and is used traditionally in
China as a medicinal mushroom for urological conditions.
There are several scientific studies supporting
that high-molecular-weight polysaccharides can
produce greater immune stimulating effects.
Pharmacological
and clinical research
In recent Japanese
animal studies on the anti-cancer effects
of various medicinal mushrooms, Polyporus
(Grifola Umbellata) produced extremely high
results.
