Youquan insists on using "natural methods" to cultivate Antrodia cinnamomea. The wild fungus species restored by natural methods not only require a suitable humidity environment to provide Antrodia cinnamomea for growth, but also take a long time. Therefore, Antrodia cinnamomea restored by natural methods can grow strong fruiting bodies with high triterpenoid content, which is more noticeable when eaten. The longer the age, the more the active ingredients will be metabolized.

According to research literature, one of the polysaccharides currently regarded as an important indicator internationally is "glucan". Glucan also has anti-cancer activity, which inhibits the formation and growth of tumor cells and prevents tumor metastasis by protecting cells from genotoxic carcinogens. Therefore, in Japan, glucan has been used as an adjuvant for cancer chemotherapy and radiotherapy. This natural, non-toxic and beneficial active polysaccharide (glucan) is most abundant in mushrooms in nature. The very significant immune regulation effect of Antrodia cinnamomea is largely related to its rich content of glucan.

The most well-known ingredients of Antrodia cinnamomea are triterpenes , and there are also "active polysaccharides", "superoxide dismutase" and "adenosine", which can be said to be the most precious active ingredients of Antrodia cinnamomea. The Antrodia cinnamomea fruiting bodies cultivated from wild fungi and Antrodia cinnamomea logs contain up to 12.5 grams of triterpenes. About Superoxide Dismutase It is an important antioxidant enzyme in organisms. It is synthesized by the body or obtained through food intake and is widely used in skin care products. SOD can neutralize free radicals and protect cells from oxidative damage, thus providing comprehensive protection for...

Triterpenes are considered to be its most important active ingredients. According to research literature, triterpenes in Antrodia cinnamomea can inhibit the growth of mammalian blood cancer (leukemia) cells, and human cancer cell culture experiments have confirmed that triterpenes in Antrodia cinnamomea can inhibit colorectal cancer, breast cancer, liver cancer and lung cancer cells. In addition, Antrodia cinnamomea triterpenes can effectively inhibit the generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby reducing the free radical content in the body and achieving anti-inflammatory effects. Currently, it is known that diseases caused by free radical damage in the body include atherosclerosis, diabetes, hypertension,...
