Detailed Product Description

Sang-Hwang Mushroom

Latin Name: Phellinus linteus

Phellinus linteus is a medicinal mushroom widely used in Japan, Korea and China. In the wild it grows on mulberry trees. It is a mushroom which is shaped like a hoof and has a bitter taste. The stem's color ranges from dark brown to black. In Korean traditional medicine, the mushroom is consumed in the form of hot tea. In a rare form of cooperation, the government of North Korea has allowed scientists to work with scientists in South Korea in efforts to research potential health benefits of the mushroom.

Early research has shown that Phellinus linteus has anti-breast cancer activity.

Interfungins A, a compound isolated from the fruiting body of Phellinus linteus, is a potent protein glycation inhibitor.
