Properties and Benefits of Coriolus versicolor
Strengthening the immune system :
- Rich in polysaccharides, including polysaccharide-K (PSK) and polysaccharide-peptide (PSP), Coriolus versicolor is used to stimulate the immune response. These compounds help activate immune cells, such as T-cells and macrophages, increasing the body's ability to fight infections and diseases.
Antioxidant effect :
- This mushroom contains powerful antioxidants, such as flavonoids and phenols, which help neutralize free radicals, protecting cells from oxidation and helping to reduce damage related to oxidative stress.
Support in cancer treatments :
- Due to its immunostimulant properties, Coriolus versicolor is being studied for its role as an adjunct to cancer treatments. PSK, in particular, is recognized in Japan and China as an adjuvant in some chemotherapy protocols, particularly for gastric, colorectal and lung cancer. It can help reduce the side effects of chemotherapy and improve patients' quality of life.
Anti-inflammatory effect :
- The bioactive compounds of Coriolus versicolor help reduce chronic inflammation, which is often associated with various degenerative diseases. Its natural anti-inflammatory effect makes it a potential supplement in inflammatory diseases.
Improved gut health :
- It is also prebiotic, promoting the growth of good bacteria in the gut. This can help improve digestion, strengthen the gut microbiome, and therefore, the overall immune system.
