Micotherapy U-Care AVD Reform

Powerful immune modulator with proprietary AVD formula

Micotherapy U-CARE is an AVD REFORM proprietary blend containing concentrated hydroalcoholic extracts of 5 mushrooms traditionally considered to be ‘medicinal’: Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum), Maitake (Grifola frondosa), Agaricus blazei Murrill, Cordyceps sinensis and Shiitake (Lentinula edodes).

HEALTH BENEFITS:
This specially-developed formula contains polysaccharides (Beta glucans 1.3-1.6) with a potent immunomodulatory activity, triterpenes, ergothioneine, ergosterols and numerous other biologically active compounds to support the body’s health. The synergy of beta glucans obtained from different mushroom species has a more complete effect on the immune system.

INGREDIENTS:

Blend of beta glucans extracted from:

  • Agaricus blazei Murrill
  • Cordyceps sinensis
  • Ganoderma lucidum
  • Grifola frondose
  • Lentinula edodes

PROPERTIES OF THE INGREDIENTS:

  • Agaricus blazei Murrill: improves the body’s antioxidant response and is an effective immune system modulator, useful in the fight vs viruses, bacteria and parasites, and in various forms of allergies and autoimmune diseases.
  • Cordyceps sinensis: tonic par excellence, it favorably regulates the production of steroid hormones and inflammation, especially osteoarticular, and helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue, useful in convalescence periods.
  • Ganoderma lucidum: promotes the reduction of excessive cortisol levels and correctly modulates the immune system, proving useful in case of immune deficiencies and autoimmune diseases.
  • Grifola frondosa: useful in the metabolic syndrome, it regulates the excessive levels of glucose in the plasma, limits its intestinal absorption, and increases its metabolization by the cells.
  • Lentinula edodes: powerful intestinal prebiotic, improves the health of the oral microbiota, favoring broad-spectrum antimicrobial protection and preventing infectious disorders of the oral cavity, in particular of the gums.
