AHCC

AHCC can boost your immune system into recognizing and eliminating abnormal cells…
The acronym AHCC stands for Active Hexose Correlated Compound, which is a registered trademark of Amino Up Co. Ltd. It is an extract of the root threads of shiitake (Letinula edodes) and other mushrooms fermented in rice bran. For more information on shiitake, please see our Mushrooms article.
Immune Benefits
AHCC has been found to benefit the innate immune response. Innate immune cells are those that do not require a previous exposure to a pathogen in order to respond. These are cells such as natural killer (NK) cells, macrophages, monocytes, neutrophils, and mast cells.
Research has found that AHCC significantly increases natural killer (NK) cell activity in cell growth patients. These NK cells are the immune cells responsible for directly attacking abnormal and virally infected cells in the body, thus helping to fight abnormal cells and viral infections. In the same way, AHCC may be able to boost the immune response and actually prevent infections – particularly those caused by viruses. Some initial research has shown potential protection provided against the influenza (flu) and West Nile viruses, by a boosting of the innate immune response.
Anti-Cell Growths
Interestingly, in addition to innate immune benefits, AHCC has also been shown to boost killer T cells and certain cytokines that promote a beneficial adaptive immune response in cell growth patients as well. It has also been shown to improve survival outcomes when supplemented by certain types of cell growth patients, particularly those with abnormal cells in the liver. In fact, AHCC is widely used in Japan and China for patients with cell growths, particularly to protect the immune system of those undergoing chemotherapy. It has been found to improve the quality of life of cell growth patients undergoing conventional treatments as well as helping to directly treat growths itself. Thus, AHCC is frequently recommended by natural healthcare practitioners for cell growths patients in general to help improve survival outcomes.
Diabetes
Some research has shown the diabetic patients can also benefit from supplementation of AHCC. It has been found to reduce blood sugar levels and help to promote blood sugar stabilization, which results in lower hemoglobin A1c levels (HbA1c). Further research is required in this area.
How Can I Get AHCC?
This supplement can be found alone in tincture and powdered form, and there are a number of mushroom blends that contain AHCC. The recommended dose of AHCC has not yet been well established and recommended dosages range from 500mg to 3g daily, with lower doses being used for maintenance, while higher doses are used for more aggressive therapy.
