Shiitake Mushroom Capsules
Shiitake Mushroom Capsules (Lentinus edodes) is a type of edible fungus. It’s native to Japan and China, and contains a chemical called lentinan.
Shiitake mushrooms are the second most commonly eaten mushrooms in the world. Lentinan and other chemicals in shiitake mushrooms might stimulate the immune system.
People use shiitake mushroom for HIV/AIDS, common cold, flu, and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses.
Possibly Ineffective for Shiitake Mushroom Capsules
- Tooth plaque. Rinsing the mouth with a liquid containing shiitake doesn’t seem to reduce tooth plaque.
There is interest in using shiitake for a number of other purposes, but there isn’t enough reliable information to say whether it might be helpful.
