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,...
Antrodia camphorata, also known as the "Treasure of Taiwan's Forests", is a rare fungus unique to Taiwan that grows on the trunk of the Antrodia camphorata tree. Because the natural distribution range of Antrodia cinnamomea is narrow and the natural production conditions of Antrodia cinnamomea are extremely harsh, Antrodia cinnamomea becomes an extremely precious resource. In the wild, the production process of Antrodia cinnamomea may take years or even decades. As demand increases, artificial cultivation of Antrodia cinnamomea has become an important technology. The cultivation process of Antrodia cinnamomea is very complicated and needs to be carried out in a...
In the market, there are numerous Antrodia cinnamomea products to choose from, but how to choose high-quality products is crucial for consumers. First, consumers should pay attention to the origin of the product. High-quality Antrodia cinnamomea usually comes from large-scale, legally operated restoration parks that can ensure the legal cultivation of Antrodia cinnamomea and provide complete product traceability information. Secondly, the triterpenoid content of the product is an important indicator. High-quality Antrodia cinnamomea products should have a higher content of triterpenes, which is usually clearly stated in the product label. According to Taiwan’s national standard (CNS16152), the triterpenoid content of...
Triterpenoid compounds are one of the most important active ingredients in Antrodia cinnamomea. These compounds have significant supporting effects on various functions of the human body. The triterpenoid components in Antrodia cinnamomea mainly include eight unique small molecule triterpenes such as antrodia acid A, antrodia acid B, and antrodia acid C. These components have positive contributions to the regulation of the immune system, protection of the liver, and anti-inflammatory effects. Studies have shown that these triterpenoids can inhibit the generation of free radicals, thereby reducing the damage to cells caused by oxidative stress. For people who are under long-term high...
