The power of four medicinal mushrooms in liposomal form<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

Medicinal mushrooms: age-old tradition<\/h2>\n

For centuries, mushrooms have played an important role in traditional medicine, especially in China and Japan. There, they are not only seen as food, but also as powerful allies for resistance, vitality and recovery<\/strong>. Mushrooms contain unique substances \u2013 such as beta-glucans, triterpenes, polysaccharides and peptides<\/strong> \u2013 that are not found in other plants or herbs. <\/p>\n

Modern science has now confirmed many of these effects. Research shows that certain mushrooms support communication between the gut microbiome and the immune system<\/strong> , and that they help the body to balance inflammatory responses<\/strong> . That is why they are increasingly used worldwide as natural support, both preventively and in recovery periods. <\/p>\n

At NGD Care, we’ve brought together four of the most researched mushrooms into one powerful supplement: the Myco Immune Complex<\/strong> (Mushroom Mix 1).<\/p>\n

The four mushrooms in the Myco Immune Complex<\/h2>\n

\ud83c\udf31 Agaricus blazei (Almond mushroom)<\/h3>\n

Agaricus is known for its high concentration of beta-glucans<\/strong> \u2013 complex sugars that subtly stimulate the immune system. These beta-glucans bind to immune cells and ensure that they respond more efficiently to external stimuli. Agaricus is often used to increase general resistance<\/strong> and contribute to a more resilient body, especially in periods of stress or fatigue. <\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf31 Maitake<\/h3>\n

Maitake literally means “dancing mushroom” and was traditionally used in Japan to restore energy and vitality. This mushroom has a strong relationship with energy management<\/strong> and can support the body with fatigue and stress. Research indicates that Maitake can affect glucose regulation<\/strong> and support immune cells<\/strong> in their daily work. For dogs and cats that are tired for a longer period of time or have difficulty recovering, Maitake can be very valuable. <\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf31 Shiitake<\/h3>\n

Shiitake is one of the most well-known medicinal mushrooms. In addition to its culinary uses, it contains substances such as lentinan<\/g>, a substance that has been extensively studied for its immune-supporting properties. Shiitake contributes to a balanced immune response<\/strong> and helps the body to remain flexible. In practice, you see that Shiitake is often used in animals with reduced resistance or recurring sensitivities. <\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf31 Coriolus versicolor (Turkey Tail)<\/h3>\n

You may recognize this mushroom from the forest, where it grows in beautiful fan shapes on tree trunks. Coriolus contains unique polysaccharide peptides, which have been used in Asian medicine for decades. They support both gut health<\/strong> and immune response<\/strong> and contribute to restoring balance after illness or infection. For animals, Coriolus is a gentle but powerful support during periods of reduced vitality. <\/p>\n

Why liposomal?<\/h2>\n

Although medicinal mushrooms contain powerful substances, they are not optimally absorbed with normal intake. The digestive tract can break down a large part of the active substances. <\/p>\n

That’s why at NGD Care we opt for liposomal technology<\/strong>:<\/p>\n
