Clinical Research
Many people turn to alternative and complementary therapies to boost their immune systems. But with so many different choices, all claiming to be the best, it can be hard to separate scientifically validated products from the fads. AHCC® makes it easy.
AHCC® is an extensively studied, highly efficacious, 100% natural supplement for bolstering the human immune system.* A proprietary extract of hybridized medicinal mushroom mycelia (roots), AHCC® is:
- Supported by over 30 human clinical trials, as well as over 100 pre-clinical trials
- Used in over 1,000 clinics worldwide
- Japan’s top-selling immune-supporting specialty dietary supplement
Quality of Life was the first company to introduce AHCC® back in 2002 when it won the prestigious NutrAward for Best New Product of the Year. Since then, it has remained our most popular and highly rated product.

Learn more aboutour ingredients
AHCC®
AHCC® works as a biological response modifier, which means it turns up the dial on your natural immune response and strengthens your resistance.* It works by increasing the numbers and activity of white blood cells in the body. AHCC® increases the activity of natural killer cells, the body’s first line of defense, by as much as 300-800%.* It boosts populations of macrophages, which engulf and destroy foreign material.* It increases the number of dendritic cells, which identify immune threats and lead T cells to them.* And it boosts the numbers and activity of T cells, which recognize previously encountered immune threats and eliminate them on the spot.*
100% of our ingredients are backed by human clinical studies.
Suggested Use: 2 vegicaps before a meal, up to twice daily.
Each vegetarian capsule of Kinoko® Platinum AHCC® delivers 750 mg of AHCC®, making it easier and more convenient to achieve the 3 g daily dosage recommended during times of heightened immune challenges.

We make honest products that work
In the Hudson River Valley of New York, Quality of Life crafts the world’s finest nutritional supplements for a variety of health concerns. We don’t follow fads; we follow the science. We obsess over things like bioavailability, standardization, molecular weight, dissolution, permeability, and well-controlled human clinical trials. It’s because we believe that attention to science makes supplements that work.
We source only the best.
We select the most bioavailable forms of vitamins, minerals, botanicals, peptides, amino acids, and coenzymes, so you absorb and utilize what you take. We opt for concentrated herbal extracts, standardized to contain precise amounts of herbal actives, to ensure consistency from batch to batch and bottle to bottle. We focus on ingredients that are released slowly over time, so your blood levels stay consistently elevated and you can reap more benefits.
We manufacture with care.
Most of our supplements are manufactured in a state-of-the-art 70,000-square foot manufacturing facility certified by NSF International, the world’s foremost quality control certifier for nutritional supplements. This facility is equipped with a pioneering laboratory, allowing for quality control testing at each stage of production. Our products are packaged in amber glass bottles with metal caps — which protects their contents against moisture, oxygen, and light — and sealed with a tamper proof band.
We test, test, and test again.
We test each of our raw materials and finished products for identity, purity, strength, and composition, ensuring that what’s on the label is what’s in the bottle. We also perform dissolution testing to ensure our capsules dissolve properly and release their contents into your gut. Finally, we subject our products to accelerated stability testing to make sure they remain potent not just at the time of manufacture but by the time they reach your door.
The Most Effective Medicinal Mushroom Product Available
What makes AHCC® so effective? First, it contains a special class of polysaccharides called alpha glucans, which are powerful immune-boosters.* Glucans are common in all medicinal mushrooms, but the alpha glucans in AHCC® are more potent than the beta-glucans found in most other mushrooms. Second, AHCC® solves the principal problem facing most medicinal mushroom supplements: poor absorption. While most medicinal mushroom extracts have a molecular weight of more than 200,000 daltons, AHCC® is manufactured through a patented process that reduces its molecular size to under 5,000 daltons — increasing absorption and enhancing efficacy.

Product Questions
Are your products vegetarian?
Are your products vegetarian?
Whenever possible, Quality of Life formulates our products to be vegetarian and provides them in vegetarian capsules made from vegetable cellulose. However, many of the most-researched nutritional ingredients are derived from animal products, such as vitamin D3, chondroitin, collagen, and Neptune krill oil. Because of our commitment to clinically efficacious products, when we have to choose between a vegetarian form of an ingredient (such as vitamin D2) or an animal-derived, yet more efficacious form (such as vitamin D3), we choose to prioritize the more scientifically validated form.
If I am allergic to mushrooms, can I take AHCC?
If I am allergic to mushrooms, can I take AHCC?
Allergies to mushrooms are most often associated with exposure to mushroom spores. These spores originate in the top of the mushroom, called the fruiting body. However, AHCC is derived from the mycelia, or root of the mushroom, which does not contain spores. In addition, as part of the manufacturing process, the raw material is subjected to a fermentation process that breaks down the high molecular weight molecules that are very tough to digest, into low molecular weight compounds. This process further lowers any allergenic potential. Many people who believe they are allergic to mushrooms take AHCC successfully. However, if you are concerned, please check with a healthcare professional that specializes in natural products or begin taking AHCC very slowly. This can be done by starting with a quarter of a capsule on the tip of your tongue and if you don’t experience itching in your mouth or other signs of allergy, work your way up to 2 to 6 capsules per day over a period of several days.
