Hericium erinaceus, the scientific name Hericium erinaceus, is named after its fruiting body shape is very similar to that of gibbon head. Also known as Hericium erinaceus, Hericium erinaceus, cauliflower mushroom, round-headed mushroom, yin-yang mushroom, opposite mushroom, white-haired mushroom, curly-tailed mushroom, Yuanyang mushroom, lion mushroom and lion mushroom. Hericium erinaceus belongs to Hericium of Polyporaceae. The fruiting body of Hericium erinaceus is ovoid and unbranched, with a diameter of about 4 ~ 10 cm. It is white when fresh and turns light brown after drying. Although the shape of Hericium erinaceus is not very beautiful, its nutritional value is the highest among all mushrooms.

Hericium erinaceus contains a lot of protein, polysaccharide and seven essential amino acids, among which glutamic acid is particularly high (0.6422 mg/g). Hericium erinaceus is a very famous and delicious edible fungus. It is not only a delicious dish, but also a mushroom that is very beneficial to human health. Many clinical experiments have proved that taking Hericium erinaceus regularly can nourish and strengthen the body, especially contribute to the function of gastrointestinal tract and change the flora ecology. It is especially recognized as a substance that can keep brain cells young, and it is regarded as a precious mushroom that will become smart after eating.

Main nutritional components of Hericium erinaceus:

Galactose xylose glucan

Mannose xylose dextran

Xylose dextran FII-I

Mannose xylose

Xylose dextran F 10-b

Active acid substance "Y-A-2"

Description of important components of Hericium erinaceus

Galactose-xyloglucan-Galactose-xyloglucan is a unique active polysaccharide of Hericium erinaceus, which is not found in other mushrooms, and the effect is 75.9% in mice experiments.

Mannose-xyloglucan Mannose-xyloglucan is a unique active polysaccharide of Hericium erinaceus, which is not found in other mushrooms, and its effect in mice experiments is 73%.

Hericium erinaceus polysaccharide scientists have found that "polysaccharide" plays an important role in human physiological operation. Most of these sugars with special functions are located on the protein on the cell surface, and protein is the medium for cells to recognize and communicate with each other. Polysaccharide: Regulate physiological function, promote metabolism and relieve fatigue.

Hericium erinaceus -D Hericium erinaceus -D is recognized as a substance that can keep brain cells young. Because of the discovery of this substance in Hericium erinaceus, Hericium erinaceus has attracted considerable attention in the field of brain nerves.

Erinacine-C Erinacine-C is recognized as a substance that can keep brain cells young. Hericium erinaceus has been paid more attention in the field of brain nerves because of the discovery of this substance in Hericium erinaceus.

Glutamate Glutamate is one of the essential amino acids for human body, and it is a very special substance, which can produce interferon, surround the virus and prevent it from expanding or spreading. Therefore, Hericium erinaceus can be said to be a magical mushroom that spans many aspects and can exert multiple forces.
