AHCC Naturopathic (Olympian Labs)
AHCC or Active Hexose Correlated Compound is a natural substance made from medicinal mushrooms containing bioactive, low molecular weight hexose molecules. Medicinal mushrooms and their extracts have been reported in the scientific literature to have a variety of biological effects. AHCC is created by reacting specific enzymes with several species of medicinal mushrooms Basidiomycetes. AHCC is then obtained from a patented process of cultivation, enzymatic decomposition, sterilization, concentration, and freeze drying. AHCC is rich in nutrients (alpha glucans) and dietary fiber and is known to have immune supporting benefits. AHCC's special ingredients obtained from this unique cultivation method cannot be found in typical mushrooms.
The main advantage of this cultivation method is that it breaks down nutrients into a more absorbable form. The molecular weight of most mushroom extracts is in the hundreds of thousands of Daltons (a measure of weight) AHCC has a molecular weight under 5,000 Daltons. This small molecular weight means that potent nutrients in AHCC can be assimilated quickly by the white blood cells for immediate use in strengthening of the bodies immune system.
