Irina Filippova's Mushroom Pharmacy specializes in creating native mushroom preparations that preserve the natural healing properties of mushrooms. The Fungo-Shi brand is popular in many countries due to its meticulous selection of raw materials and unique healing properties. Maitake, known as the "dancing mushroom" in China and the "hen-of-the-woods" in Japan, offers a range of potential health benefits.
Maitake's weight-loss properties contributed to its nickname, "the mushroom of Japanese geishas." Historically, geishas used Maitake to maintain their slender figures, even while tasting various dishes—a practice born from the need to ensure guest safety from potential poisoning. Modern research supports these anecdotal claims. A study at Yamaguchi Women's College in Japan showed that rats fed a diet supplemented with 5% Maitake powder gained significantly less weight over 18 weeks compared to the control group. A Tokyo clinic study involving 30 overweight individuals also demonstrated weight loss ranging from 2.5 to 14 kg over 8 weeks, with Maitake as the only dietary change. Dr. Masanori Yokota's renowned weight-loss system, featuring Maitake, Shiitake, and Chaga mushrooms, has gained global popularity, including widespread use in Hollywood.
Maitake can help alleviate menopause symptoms. Dr. Kasuko Isujze, a gynecologist, confirms that Maitake reduces hot flashes, night sweats, and irritability associated with menopause. Furthermore, its cholesterol-lowering properties are beneficial during this phase. Maitake also alleviates PMS symptoms like irritability, cramping, headaches, weakness, and fatigue. As early as the 14th century, Chinese physician Wu Rui recognized Maitake's efficacy in treating various women's health issues. Its hormone-balancing properties further contribute to its effectiveness.
Maitake shows promise in the management of benign tumors. Research, including presentations at the 1981 Hungarian Fungal Therapy Society Congress by Dr. L. Gleiti and colleagues, highlighted Maitake's unparalleled effectiveness in gynecological applications. Its ability to aid in the resorption of uterine fibroids, fibromyomas, and cysts, as well as support in cases of mastopathy, is particularly noteworthy.
Maitake offers a range of additional potential health benefits including:
