Concentrated shiitake extract from KÄÄPÄ mushrooms

Shiitake mushrooms (Lentinula edodes) are the world's most popular edible mushroom after button mushrooms. They are used primarily in East Asian cuisine. Shiitake has a savory flavor and is rich in vitamins and minerals. Shiitake has also been traditionally used for other health purposes.

Interesting ingredients of shiitake include:

• Beta-glucans
• Eritadenine
• Sterols

KÄÄPÄ Mushrooms uses a double extraction method with hot water and alcohol:

• Hot water for water-soluble compounds
• Alcohol for fat-soluble compounds

1 kg of dried shiitake mushrooms yields 20 liters of shiitake tincture. Each 2 ml of tincture (recommended daily intake) contains approximately 100 mg of shiitake extract. Many manufacturers produce their extracts from fresh mushrooms. Using dried shiitake fruiting bodies can result in a higher concentration of active ingredients in KÄÄPÄ Mushrooms' Shiitake Soma Tincture.

Shiitake tincture offers all the benefits of shiitake in a concentrated form. You can dose it with a dropper and easily add it to drinks and meals.

About Kääpä, extraction and quality

KÄÄPÄ Mushrooms is the largest producer of mushroom extracts in Europe. They specialize in growing mushrooms on tree trunks.

Cultivation: KÄÄPÄ medicinal mushrooms are 100% organically grown and produced in Finland using the purest ingredients. Finland has the cleanest air and water in the world, as well as the world's largest area (11.6 million hectares) of certified organic forest. KÄÄPÄ shiitake mushrooms are grown here on sustainable Finnish birch substrate.

Extraction: The ground mushroom fruiting bodies are placed in the ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE) system. KÄÄPÄ uses purified spring water and alcohol with UAE technology to produce high yields of bioavailable compounds. Each mushroom has a unique and distinct extraction method because the compounds of interest vary. The extraction process ensures that the desired compounds are bioavailable for your use. We use an industry-leading ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE) method, which breaks down the tough chitin cell walls of mushrooms, releasing active compounds that can be utilized by the human body. Without an extraction process, some of the interesting compounds found in mushrooms are not absorbed and pass directly through the digestive system unused.

Independent Quality Control: The people behind KÄÄPÄ are science nerds dedicated to developing the most potent and purest dual-extracted liquid mushroom extracts. KÄÄPÄ Mushrooms strives for a fully transparent, high-quality production process that produces safe medicinal mushroom products. Samples are sent to a third-party laboratory for bioactive compound content, microbiological testing, and heavy metal testing. New formulations are being standardized, and data on beta-glucans/CoAs will be published in the near future.
