Agaricus Blazei Extract
Botanical Source: Agaricus Blazei Murrill.
Plant Part Used: Mushroom Fruit body
Appearance:Brown powder
Specifications: Polysaccharides 30%, 40%, 80% by UV
The Agaricus blazei mushroom contains a specific polysaccharide called beta glucan. The beta-D-glucan and other polysaccharides specifically activate the immune system's cells (such as macrophages, interferon, T cells, and natural killer cells) in order to prevent the multiplication, metastasis (spreading) of tumors.

Introduction:
Everyone can benefit from enhancement of his or her immune system to provide a longer and better quality life. All of us are subjected to the immune suppressing action of aging, environmental contaminants, chemicals in food and water, disease and the stresses of a fast paced lifestyle. The Agaricus Blazei mushroom is a dietary food supplement with an active ingredient proven by research to be an incredibly effective enhancing agent to the immune system with anti-tumor properties.
Agaricus Blazei mushroom is widely recognized as an exceptional natural supplement for its immunity enhancing effects, to the point where it is used for AIDS treatment. In Japan, intensive research has been done with guinea pigs reveal that the mushroom prevents cancer development 99.4% and cures cancer 90.0%. Now, several active ingredients have been identified.
Dr.W.J. Sinden from University of Pennsylvania and Dr.E. D. Lambert from Lambert Laboratories were the first to present their research results on medicinal compounds of Agaricus blazei. Their presentation attracted attention of the medical community to this mushroom. Former President Ronald Reagan used this mushroom to fight his skin cancer, which helped publicize Agaricus Blazei.
Anti-tumor effects come from polysaccharides including "beta/ alpha/ xylo/ galacto/ and protein glucan. And steroids, nucleic acids, lipids and lectin are known to have cancer inhibition properties.
All countries except the U.S.A. are said to have difficulty in getting stable supply of the mushroom. Thus, the mushroom still remains a rarity in the other parts of the world. However, Japan first succeeded in cultivating the mushroom. Now, the mushroom is cultivated in Brazil, U.S., Japan, China, Korea and other Asian countries.
Agaricus Blazei - Immune Stimulant:
l Anti-tumor effect: Polysaccharides including beta and protein glucan decrease and control cancerous cell proliferation.
l Cancer inhibition effect: Steroids, nucleic acids, lipids and lectin restrain cancerous cell multiplication.
l Anti-cancer and metastasis inhibition effect: Agaricus blazei prevents normal cells from becoming cancerous cells. The mushroom shows a remarkable cancer prevention rate of 99.4%.
l Reducing blood sugar: The mushroom is effective in fighting diabetes.
l Controlling blood pressure: It lowers cholesterol level and eases arteriosclerosis.
Agaricus Blazei Super Concentrate:
Active Ingredients:
Beta-(1-3)-D-glucan, Beta-(1-4)-a-D-glucan & Beta-(1-6)-D-glucan. Known collectively as Beta Glucan, these substances are the most potent immunopotentiating (immune enhancing) substances yet found. They also have very powerful anti-tumor properties.
It is thought by most scientists that the anti-tumor properties of these chemicals are directly resultant from the immune enhancement. That is, the beta-glucans do not directly cause the anti-tumor effect, but rather they trigger the bodies' own anti-tumor response. This is relatively easy to measure, as the human body produces a type of anti-tumor white blood cell known as NKC - Natural Killer cells (NK cells). When human subjects are given BLAZEI in their diet, a 3000% increase of NK cells in the blood is seen within 2-4 days.
Natural Killer Cells - Agaricus Blazei
Natural killer cells were named for their ability to spontaneously kill cancer cells.As part of the body's innate immunity, they also secrete a protein called interferon-gamma, which rallies the rest of the immune system against infected cells.
By responding as soon as a damaged cell appears, natural killer cells defend the body while other immune cells are gearing up for action. Their radar system for detecting cells that need to be destroyed consists of a large array of related protein receptors. These activation receptors sit on the natural killer cell surface.
Natural killer cells are best known for their capacity to kill tumor cells before they become established cancers, but there has also long been evidence for their role in controlling infection in the earliest phases of the body's immune response.
One of the primary objectives of immune system stimulation is to increase the number and vitality of Natural Killer Cells. Natural Killer (NK) Cells are large immune cells which have been shown to attack cancer cells and cells infected by viruses. NK Cells destroy their targets by releasing substances that damage the offending cell, leading to an immune response that eliminates the cell.
Summary for Agaricus Blazei Super Concentrate:
Research studies over the last 25 years have shown Agaricus Blazei to stimulate the
immune system and promote natural mechanisms to battle infectious disease and cancers. Agaricus Blazei stimulates lymphocyte T-cell and Helper T-cell production. The polysaccharide contained in Agaricus Blazei stimulates production of interferon and interleukin that indirectly function to destroy and prevent the proliferation of cancer cells. Also, Agaricus Blazei turned out to be a very powerful antiviral agent preventing viruses from entering tissues.
Normally, the polysaccharides found in fungus only affect solid cancers, however the polysaccharide in Agaricus Blazei is effective against Ehrich's ascites carcinoma, sigmoid colonic cancer, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, and liver cancer as well as against solid cancers.
Agaricus Blazei was found to eliminate all cancerous tumors in 90% of the experimental mice. Additionally, when the mice were fed Agaricus Blazei as a preventative and then injected with a very powerful cancer causing agent (Sarcoma 180), 99.4% of them showed no tumor growth. Conventional medicine has nothing as powerful as this.
The studies show Agaricus Blazei to be 80% more effective than the world's number one cancer drug, PSK. It contains much higher levels of beta glucans than the other medicinal mushrooms (Maitake, Shiitake, and Reishi). It stimulates NK (Natural Killer) cell activity at a rate higher than MGN-3.
There are large numbers of patients for whom there are no effective allopathic treatments or for whom the available therapies are either poorly tolerated or only partially helpful. A physician who has the knowledge to help these patients is working with a tremendous advantage.
Agaricus Blazei mushrooms: the following people may obtain beneficial results from Agaricus mushrooms due to the active ingredient, Beta-1,3 / 1,6-glucan.
