I enjoy using Maitake mushroom powder to enhance the flavour of my recipes. It adds a nice touch to my dishes without compromising on taste. Additionally, I feel great throughout the day, with a sustained level of energy. Highly recommend this product.

Cancer Sucks!


I've found these pills to be a supportive part of my journey through chemotherapy. Alongside Reishi and Turkey Tail mushrooms, they've provided me with an energy boost. I've noticed positive results in my blood exams too.

Pleasantly Surprised


I've taken 1/2 tsp in my coffee every morning for 3 weeks, I can't taste it at all which is great. Aside from that I've felt so much more awake, generally my moods are better, and most surprisingly I find it has really helped manage the cramps I get from my endometriosis.

My brother uses these to help manage some of the effects he experiences during his cancer treatment, and he feels they help him think more clearly and improve his memory.

Discover More About Antioxi Maitake

Maitake thrives in the forests of Zhejiang Province, where ideal conditions nurture its growth. With humidity levels between 60-95% and ample light, oxygen, and the natural richness of the region, Maitake flourishes on logs, embodying the essence of its natural habitat.

Our extraction process is a balance of tradition and innovation, meticulously crafted to capture Maitake's complete range of beneficial compounds. Our meticulous hot water extraction method from the fruiting body ensures potency and effectiveness, isolating essential compounds like polysaccharides, including beta-glucans, and the valuable Maitake D-Fraction.


Marrying science and tradition, we offer Maitake extract of unmatched purity and potency.

We're steadfast in ensuring purity, exceeding industry standards with rigorous contaminant testing for pristine Maitake. Independent validation from esteemed laboratories ensures not only excellence but also absolute safety.

Lab reports

Tested. Proven. Trusted.

Beta-Glucan Content: 46.3%

Why This Matters:

  • Beta-D-glucans are crucial for boosting immune health and overall potency in mushroom supplements.
  • Antioxi sets a high beta-D-glucan threshold of 40%, and with 46.3%, this extract exceeds the standard, ensuring maximum effectiveness.
  • Most mushroom products on the market aren't tested for beta-D-glucans, leading to inconsistent potency. Antioxi ensures consistent high quality.

Alpha-Glucan Content: 12.4%

Why This Matters:

  • Alpha-glucans can indicate impurities or fillers.
  • Grain-based mycelium products often have higher alpha-glucan levels, signaling lower quality.

Important Notes:

  • Alpha glucan levels of Maitake appear high due to an update in the Megazyme assay kit.
  • The Megazyme assay kit, used to measure beta-glucan content, was updated to include Trehalase.
  • Trehalase, previously classified as beta-glucan, is now recognized as alpha glucan.

Heavy Metals

Report vs EU Maximum Levels:

  • Lead, Cadmium, Mercury: All detected levels are well below the EU’s maximum limits, ensuring safety from these toxic metals.
  • Arsenic: No specific EU limit, but the detected level is low and considered safe.

Why This Matters:

  • Mushrooms can absorb harmful metals like lead and mercury.
  • The EU has some of the strictest limits globally, ensuring consumer protection.
  • We meet and exceed these safety standards to guarantee pure, safe supplements.

Pesticides

  • Tests Conducted: Liquid Chromatography (LC) and Gas Chromatography (GC) screenings.
  • Results: Pesticide levels were below the limit of quantification (<LOQ). This indicates that no detectable pesticide residues were found in the product.

Why This Matters:

  • Mushrooms can absorb pesticides, posing potential health risks.
  • We perform the most comprehensive pesticide tests, exceeding basic requirements for safety.
  • Many companies conduct only limited tests, but we ensure thorough screening for guaranteed product safety.

Microbials

  • Total Plate Count: Less than 10,000 CFU/g—meets safety standards.
  • Yeast and Mold: Below 100 CFU/g—low risk of contamination.
  • E. Coli and Salmonella: Both negative—no harmful pathogens detected.

Why This Matters:

  • Mushrooms can harbor microbes from their natural environment, making thorough testing essential to ensure a safe, contaminant-free product.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Baker's Yeast) can artificially inflate beta-glucan levels, misleading consumers about supplement potency.

Two Forms Tested
:

  • Regular: DNA detectable, confirmed negative through Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).
  • Purified: DNA undetectable, confirmed negative through Microscopic Analysis.

Why This Matters:

  • Testing for both forms ensures that no yeast is present, maintaining the integrity and true potency of our mushroom extracts. Beware, some companies use Saccharomyces cerevisiae to falsely boost beta-glucan levels.
