Description

Coprinus comatus, commonly known as shaggy mane or lawyer's wig, is a distinctive mushroom recognized for its white, scaly cap and rapid autodigestion, a process in which the mature mushroom liquefies shortly after spore release—hence the nickname "ink cap."

Our Coprinus comatus extract is standardized to contain ≥30% polysaccharides, which are the key bioactive components linked to a wide range of physiological benefits. Research suggests that the extract may support blood glucose regulation, exhibit antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, promote circulatory health, and contain bioactive molecules with potential antitumor activity. These properties make it a valuable ingredient for dietary supplements, functional foods, and wellness formulations targeting metabolic and immune health.
