Aether Shiitake Tincture
Shiitake mushrooms are fungi that naturally grow on hardwood trees; they are both a food and a medicine.
Shiitake contains four important compounds (ergothioneine, linoleic acid, lentinan and eritadenine) that have been studied for their medicinal benefits. Shiitake is also a good source of vitamins such as vitamin B and D as well as minerals such as zinc, copper and selenium.
Some of the benefits include:
- Shiitake is a good source of B vitamins, which may offer adrenal support, improve energy and assist in balancing hormones.
- Lentinan, a beta-glycan, has been shown to support a healthy immune response.
- Vitamin D is essential for bone health, reducing the risk of heart disease and other conditions such as diabetes.
- Contains eritadenine, which is known to help regulate blood pressure. It has also been shown to lower cholesterol levels.
- It may protect against certain cancers.
- It’s 100% vegan.
- It’s cultivated and triple hydro-ethanolic extracted.
Ingredients: Cultivated Lentinula edodes (shiitake), ethanol, rainwater
How to use: The tincture can be used under the tongue, in a glass of water or juice or in a smoothie. It can also be added to tea or coffee.
