Lab reports

Beta-Glucans 2.84%

1 of 6 - Potency

Why They Matter: In most mushroom extracts, beta-D-glucans are the key marker of quality—but AHCC is different. AHCC is not a beta-glucan-focused extract, which is why our 2.84% beta-glucan content is expected and reflects its distinct immune mechanism.
Our Standard: We don’t promise high beta-glucans where they don’t belong. Instead, we provide verified alpha-glucan levels, aligned with AHCC’s clinical use and purity benchmarks. It’s about the right compounds in the right amounts—for the right reason.
Watch Out: Some brands lump all polysaccharides together—masking the difference between active immune compounds and cheap grain-based starch. With AHCC, specificity matters, and we test to prove what’s actually in your pouch.
True Transparency: Our Hexose Mycelium is grown and processed for bioactive alpha-glucan precision—no shortcuts, no inflated labels. Where others hide behind broad claims, we offer exact numbers and real results.

Get the potency you pay for—insist on tested alpha-glucans.

Alpha-Glucans 55.9%

2 of 6 - Purity

Why This Matters

Alpha-Glucans as a Quality Check: With AHCC, high alpha-glucan content is a good thing. Our Hexose Mycelium tests at 55.9%, aligning with clinical research and supporting the immune pathways AHCC is known for. This isn’t a case of hidden fillers—it’s a hallmark of a well-crafted, targeted extract.
Grain-Based Mycelium = Lower Quality: Many brands use grain-grown mycelium that artificially inflates alpha-glucan levels—but without the bioactive profile AHCC is known for. Our Hexose Mycelium is grown under strict conditions to ensure you're getting functional alpha-glucans, not leftover grain starch.
No Fillers, Pure Ingredients: We test to ensure no unnecessary starches or carriers sneak in. Our results confirm the alpha-glucans come directly from the mycelium itself—delivering clean, research-backed potency without compromise.

Heavy Metals

3 of 6 - Safety

Why This Matters

Mushrooms Are Bio-Accumulators
By nature, mushrooms can absorb heavy metals from their environment, making strict testing essential.
Stringent EU Standards
The EU enforces some of the world’s toughest limits on lead, cadmium, and mercury. Our levels fall well below these limits for optimal safety.
Safe, Low Readings
Even arsenic, which lacks a specific EU limit, remains at a low, non-hazardous level in our products.
Clean & Reliable Supplements
By meeting and exceeding these standards, we guarantee you’re getting pure, high-quality supplements—free from harmful toxins.

Pesticides

3 of 7 - Safety

Why This Matters

Mushrooms Can Absorb Pesticides
As natural bio-accumulators, mushrooms can store harmful chemicals from the environment, making thorough testing crucial.
Comprehensive Testing
We use both Liquid Chromatography (LC) and Gas Chromatography (GC) to screen for pesticides, going beyond basic requirements to ensure your safety.
Below the Limit of Quantification
Our third-party results show pesticide levels are too low to be measured—indicating practically none detected.
Your Assurance of Safety
While some brands run minimal checks, we conduct full-spectrum screenings to deliver a clean, worry-free product.

Microbials

5 of 6 - Safety

Why This Matters

From Harvest to Home
Mushrooms grow in natural environments and can pick up microbes at any point—during cultivation, transportation, or processing. That’s why we’re committed to stringent safety measures every step of the way.
High Standards, Pure Products
By maintaining low microbial counts and ruling out harmful bacteria, we ensure our mushrooms are as safe and clean when they arrive at your door as they were at the source. This lets you enjoy every serving with total confidence.

Saccharomyces Cerevisae

6 of 6 - Purity

Why This Matters

Preventing Artificial Beta-Glucan Inflation
Some brands use Baker’s Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) to falsely boost beta-glucan levels, creating misleading claims about potency.
Two-Tier Testing
We check both regular yeast (DNA detectable, confirmed negative via PCR) and purified yeast (DNA undetectable, verified negative through microscopic analysis). This dual approach ensures zero yeast in our products.
True Mushroom Potency
By ruling out yeast entirely, we protect the integrity of our extracts, so you know the beta-glucan content comes exclusively from real mushrooms. This way, you can trust you’re getting the true benefits you paid for.

FAQs

What is AHCC?

AHCC stands for Active Hexose Correlated Compound, a unique extract derived from the mycelium of a specific strain of Shiitake mushroom, developed through a patented fermentation process in Japan. At Antioxi, our version is called Hexose Mycelium—a high-quality extract crafted to mirror the same precision, purity, and potency.

Is Hexose Mycelium the same as AHCC?

AHCC is a general name used to describe this class of fermented mushroom mycelium extracts. Hexose Mycelium is our own formulation of AHCC, developed with a strong emphasis on ingredient integrity, and third-party tested for consistency and safety.

What is AHCC typically used for?

AHCC is often used as part of a wellness routine aimed at supporting natural balance and resilience. Our Hexose Mycelium is chosen by people looking for steady, daily support through a clean and rigorously tested extract.

How is AHCC made?

AHCC is produced by culturing mushroom mycelium through a proprietary fermentation process, which increases the concentration of beneficial alpha-glucans. Hexose Mycelium follows the same process—fermented, extracted, and purified—while meeting strict quality control standards.

Is AHCC a mushroom or a mycelium extract?

AHCC is a mycelium-based extract, made not from the fruiting body but from the root-like network (mycelium) of a specific strain of Shiitake mushroom. Our Hexose Mycelium is a concentrated extract from this very part, cultivated under carefully controlled conditions to ensure consistency and quality.

Can I combine AHCC with other mushroom supplements?

AHCC is commonly combined with other mushroom extracts depending on individual wellness goals. Our Hexose Mycelium works well alongside formulas like Reishi or Turkey Tail, and many people stack it as part of a broader daily routine.

Does AHCC have any side effects?

AHCC mushroom supplements are generally considered safe for most people. However, like any supplement, they may carry a risk of side effects, especially if taken in large amounts or without proper guidance. It is always recommended to consult a healthcare provider before adding any supplement to your routine, especially if you have any pre-existing health conditions or are on medication.

What are the delivery times?

Our average delivery time frame is 2-3 working days. We also offer a next day shipping service.

What is your return policy?

We offer a 30 day money back guarantee.
