Known as the "King of Mushrooms", Maitake (Grifola frondosa) is literally translated in Japanese to mean "Dancing Mushroom". It is highly regarded in Asia for both its culinary and medicinal qualities. Maitake is believed to support and maintain good health, sustain strong spirit, preserve youth and promote longevity. The Maitake mushroom is a fungus indigenous to Japan. The mushroom is rippled in appearance, without the traditional "cap" found on most mushrooms. The name "Dancing Mushroom" comes from an old legend which recounts that the mushroom was so highly sought after in ancient times that when people found the mushroom, they would dance with happiness. Scientists are still unraveling the secrets of what makes Maitake so beneficial to the human body. Recently, one key Maitake ingredient was identified - a unique polysaccharide compound which exhibits strong immune support activity. Further laboratory and clinical studies are under way. In traditional Chinese medicine, Maitake has long been used for improving spleen and stomach ailments, calming nerves, relieving stress and treating hemorrhoids. Worldwide, Maitake is used for immune system support, blood pressure maintenance, blood sugar support and regulation of normal cholesterol.
