Nutrients
With the advantage of tender pileus, fragile stipe and wonderful taste, fresh fruit contains water 85%-87% and dried mushroom in each 100gram contains crude protein 40-45gram, soluble polysaccharide 38-45gram, crude fiber 6-8gram, fat 3-4gram, ash 5-7gram, in which protein includs 18 series of amino acid, eight necessary to human body. It also contains several kinds of Vitamin and Ergosterol.
Medicinal use and research
Due to the fact Agaricus blazei contains a high level of beta glucans, compounds known for stimulating the immune system,the fungus is used in oncological therapy in Japan and Brazil. In addition to beta-glucans, the mushroom's effect on the immune system is believed to be due to other polysaccharides such as alpha-glucans. In Japan, Agaricus blazei is sold under the brand names Sen-Sei-Ro Gold, and ABMK, and is used by an estimated 500,000 people. In Japan, Agaricus blazei is also the most popular complementary and alternative medicine used by cancer patients.
Many researchers have studied Agaricus blazei, as well as other medicinal mushrooms for close to 50 years, due to laboratory tests which show they may stimulate immune system cells and the production of immune system cytokines. Below is a summary of this research, which is often based on animal or cellular models.
Cancer research
Animal and cellular research has shown that Agaricus blazei application or consumption appears to offer anti-cancer properties.
