- The shiitake mushroom (= Lentinula edodes), also known as shiang gugu, hua gu or qua gu, originally comes from East Asia (China, Japan, Vietnam). It has a 5 to 10 cm wide, light brown to dark brown, dry cap. The fungus grows in deciduous forests on dead trunks, preferably of oak, beech, alder and chestnut species. In Asia, especially in Japan, the shiitake has been valued for centuries not only as an edible mushroom but also as a vitalising and medicinal mushroom due to its valuable ingredients. The mushroom does not grow wild in Europe and North America. As a result of its increasing popularity worldwide, however, it is being cultivated to an increasing extent. This makes the shiitake the second most cultivated mushroom after the button mushroom. In addition to numerous minerals and vitamins, the fruiting body of the mushroom contains a large number of organic compounds that have been proven to have a positive effect on human health. It is characterised above all by its stimulation of the body's own immune defences and its effects against viral, fungal and bacterial infections. The immunomodulating properties are primarily attributed to the fungal polysaccharide lentinan, an unbranched β-(1-3)-glucan. Isolated lentinan is used in Japan in combination with chemotherapeutic agents for adjuvant tumour therapy. Eritadenine, another important ingredient of the shiitake mushroom, is said to lower high cholesterol levels and subsequently prevent the development of arteriosclerotic diseases. According to many years of experience in traditional Chinese medicine, shiitake mushrooms are also used to treat colds, flu, bronchitis, headaches, diabetes and inflammation.
