Effect on the Immune System

AHCC® uses extracts of mushrooms from the Basidiomycete family, particularly the mycelium of Lentinula edodes, more commonly known as shiitake mushrooms. The glucans are the parts of these mushrooms that are responsible for its efficacy in boosting the immune system to fight viruses.1

Specifically, they work primarily on improving the innate immune system (the part of your immune system that you are born with). Studies show that it can actually increase the number of readily available players of your immune system: natural killer cells, dendritic cells, and cytokines.3

These are of utmost importance for the immune system to respond to infections and tumor growth.

A landmark study shows that AHCC® is a tool for responding to HPV

2020 marked a new understanding of the relationship between AHCC® and HPV, in particular with the landmark study of Dr. Judith A. Smith. By both acting as an antiviral agent and by helping to strengthen your natural immunity, AHCC® by Papillex® supports your body in creating an environment inhospitable to HPV.

Dr. Judith A. Smith, a highly-regarded faculty member and professor at various academic institutions in the United States, has pioneered novel trials on AHCC® in clearing HPV. Preliminary analysis of her Phase II clinical trial involving 50 participants shows a 63.4% clearance rate of HPV infection after 6 months of supplementing with AHCC®.2

Her pilot studies proposed that AHCC® was able to ultimately increase interferon-γ, a major player in activating the immune system’s antiviral response.

This action contributes to the management of HPV symptoms.
