Health Benefits

Cancer Prevention

Recent studies have shown that white button mushroom extract has anticancer activity in vivo and in vitro, and that its major fatty acid constituents inhibit aromatase activity and oestrogen biosynthesis, which are potentially responsible for the chemopreventive effects of breast cancer ^[1].

Promotes Cardiovascular Health

White button mushroom extract contains β-glucan and other compounds that may positively affect cholesterol levels, which may contribute to cardiovascular health.

Antioxidant Effects

White button mushroom extract contains powerful antioxidants that help neutralize free radicals in the body, thereby potentially reducing oxidative stress. In addition, antioxidants can improve cognitive function by increasing blood flow to the brain.
