Active Hexose Correlated Compound (AHCC) is a natural ingredient extracted from shiitake mushrooms grown on rice bran. Manufactured in Japan since 1989, this antioxidant has already helped improve immune function in over 100,000 patients and has been the subject of over 50 human clinical trials. AHCC has the unique ability to stimulate the immune system, which is an important factor in controlling inflammation, infection, and regulating normal cell growth.
Due to its beneficial effects on the immune system, AHCC is commonly used in medical practice in Japan alongside chemotherapy. Many studies have shown reduced side effects, improved quality of life, and improved survival rates. For example, patients undergoing chemotherapy who were concurrently taking AHCC noticed less nausea, vomiting, and hair loss, and improved weight and appetite. The effects of AHCC on the immune system are not limited to cancer; they also cover microbial infections. AOR's AHCC offers a very attractive and clinically proven option for people who want to strengthen their immune system, fight stubborn infections, and for patients undergoing certain chemotherapies.
AHCC is an exceptional antioxidant and immunomodulator. AOR's AHCC contains one of the highest doses of any AHCC product available on the market, with the fewest additional ingredients. AOR's AHCC formula, in addition to its other active ingredients, has been enriched with acetylated alpha-glucans for optimal bioavailability.
