Active hexose correlated compound (AHCC) is an alpha-glucan rich nutritional supplement produced from shiitake (Lentinula edodes). The product is a subject of research as a potential anti-cancer agent.AHCC is a popular alternative medicine in Japan.AHCC is widely used in the world and many people use it for general health maintenance and treatment of various diseases.
Nutritional Value:
Polysaccharides form a large part of the composition of AHCC. These include beta-glucan (β-glucan) and partially acylated α-glucan. Partially acylated α-glucan, produced by the patented long term culturing process, is unique to AHCC. Approximately 20% of the make up of AHCC is α-glucans.
Product Features：
It is often used as a complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) for immune support,as reports in animal and clinical settings have indicated that AHCC is associated with an enhanced response to infection and increased survival. AHCC is in some cases also used by those undergoing conventional cancer therapy (e.g. chemotherapy) for its reported immunomodulatory functions. In Japan, AHCC is the 2nd most popular complementary and alternative medicine used by cancer patients. Agaricus blazei supplements are the most popular, outpacing AHCC use by a factor of 7:1.
Studies have suggested that AHCC supplementation may affect immune outcomes and immune cell populations, suggesting that it has anti-inflammatory effects. Moreover, available data have demonstrated that AHCC may possibly reduce symptoms, improve survival, and shorten recovery time in animal models infected with viruses, bacteria, and fungal infections.
Function:
Immunomodulation:
AHCC can activate human immune cells, such as natural killer cells, macrophages and T cells, enhance their activity and function, and enable them to more effectively identify and eliminate pathogens, abnormal cells, etc., thereby helping to maintain the body's immune balance and improve the body's resistance to disease.
Anti-tumor effect:
Studies have found that AHCC may exert anti-tumor effects through multiple pathways. On the one hand, it can enhance the ability of immune cells to recognize and kill tumor cells; on the other hand, it can also regulate the tumor microenvironment and inhibit tumor angiogenesis, thereby limiting tumor growth and metastasis.
Antioxidant:
It has a certain antioxidant capacity, can remove excess free radicals in the body, reduce the damage of oxidative stress to cells and tissues, and help prevent and alleviate diseases related to oxidative damage, such as cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative diseases, etc., and also has a certain anti-aging effect.
Application：
1.Health care products
As an immunomodulator and antioxidant, it is used to improve the body's immunity and delay aging.
