CLINICAL RESEARCH
Many people turn to alternative and complementary therapies to boost their immune systems. But with so many different choices, all claiming to be the best, it can be hard to separate scientifically validated products from the fads. AHCC makes it easy.
AHCC is an extensively studied, highly efficacious, 100% natural supplement for bolstering the human immune system.* A proprietary extract of hybridized medicinal mushroom mycelia (roots), AHCC is:
Quality of Life was the first company to introduce AHCC back in 2002 when it won the prestigious NutrAward for Best New Product of the Year.Since then, it has remained our most popular and highly rated product.
AHCC
AHCC works as a biological response modifier, which means it turns up the dial on your natural immune response and strengthens your resistance.*It works by increasing the numbers and activity of white blood cells in the body. AHCC increases the activity of natural killer cells,the body's first line of defense, by as much as 300-800%.*It boosts populations of macrophages, which engulf and destroy foreign material.* It increases the number of dendritic cells,which identify immune threats and lead T cells to them.* And it boosts the numbers and activity of T cells, which recognize previously encountered immune threats and eliminate them on the spot.*
Heath Benefits of AHCC
AHCc, short for Active Hexose Correlated Compound,is obtained from several subspecies of hybridized medicinal mushroom mycelia. Developed in Japan, AHCC is supported by 29 positive Human Cinical studies studies published in peer-reviewed scientific journals, Kinoko AHCC is Japan's favorite immune support supplement and the subject of research at respected medical institutions including Yale Medical School.
100% of our ingredients are backed by human clinical studies.

Dosage Chart
The Most Effective Medicinal Mushroom Product Available
What makes AHCC so effective? First, it contains a special class of polysaccharides called alpha glucans, which are powerful immune-boosters.* Glucans are common in all medicinal mushrooms, but the alpha glucans in AHCC are more potent than the beta-glucans found in most other mushrooms. Second,AHCC solves the principal problem facing most medicinal mushroom supplements:poor absorption. While most medicinal mushroom extracts have a molecular weight of more than 200,000 daltons, AHCC is manufactured through a patented process that reduces its molecular size to under 5,000 daltons -increasing absorption and enhancing efficacy.

Frequently Asked Questions
If l am allergic to mushrooms, can I take AHCC?
If l am allergic to mushrooms, can I take AHCC?
Alergiesto mushrooms are most often associated with exposure to mushroom sporess, These spores originate in the top of the mushroom,called the fruiting body. However, AHCC is derived from the mycelia, or the root of the mushroom, which does not contain spores,In addition,as part of the manufacturing process,the raw material is subjected to a fermentation process that breaks down the high molecular weight molecules that are very tough to digest into low molecular weight compounds., This process further lowers any allergenic potentia. Many people who believe they are allergic to mushrooms take AHCC successfully. However, if you are concerned, please check with a healthcare professional that specializes in natural products or begin taking AHCC very slowly.This canbe done by starting with a quarter of acapsule on the tip of your tongue and if you don't experience itching in your mouth or other signs of allergy, work your way up to 2 to 6 capsules per day over a period of several days.
Does AHCC lose its effectiveness over time?
Does AHCC lose its effectiveness over time?
No AHCC does not lose its effectiveness over time.As shown in an AHCC placebo-controlled scientific trlal. patients who used AHCC regularly over aten-year period had consistent and significant improvement as compared to the placebo group, therefore showing no signs of the ingredient losing effectiveness.*
Does AHCC lose its effectiveness over time?
Does AHCC lose its effectiveness over time?
No AHCC does not lose its effectiveness overtime. As shown in an AHCC placebo-controlled scientific tral. patients who used AHCC regqularly over a ten-year period had consistent and significant improvement as compared to the placebo group, therefore showing no signs of the ingredient losing effectiveness.
Can AHCC be taken with other medications?
Can AHCC be taken with other medications?
Two studies conducted at the highly prestigious MD Anderson Cancer Center and published in the .Journal of integrative Oncology explored AHCC interaction with other medications. These studies determined that AHCC is metabolized via a pathway called -P450 2D6, meaning that AHCC has the potential to increase or decrease the absorption of a drug that uses the same pathway.
Therefore if you are taking another medication and are concerned about possible interactions, we recommend you ask a medical professional if the drug you are taking is metabolized through the cytochrome P450 2D6 class of enzymes.Most lkely,the answer will be 'no,' which meansthat AHCC is highly unlikely to interact with the drug you are taking.
