and Tea with 
great health benefits

Mushrooms have had their own revolution in the realm of food for health. Researchers have discovered that in over an estimated 38,000 species of mushrooms, most provide a wealth of protein, fiber, B Vitamins and Vitamin C. The most powerful being the Maitake mushroom, native to the mountains of Northeastern Japan. More commonly known in the United States as ‘hen of the woods’, Japanese doctors have been using the maitakes to lower blood pressure blood lipids, two key factors in cardiovascular disease. Even more importantly, maitakes are a rich source of Beta-Glucan. These compounds play a major role in triggering the immune system, which plays a role in controlling the growth and spread of cancer. One may enjoy the benefits of the maitake in supplement form, in tea made from dried maitakes or with the actual mushroom.

Health benefits aside, maitakes have an amazing taste. The rich, woodsy flavor and the firm, meaty texture of the flesh make them the standout ingredient of any dish. Maitakes are on their way to becoming one of the staples of the Asian diet (along with soy, fish and tea) that are believed to confer good health and longevity. Chef Ming Tsai has begun importing fresh maitakes through the Yukiguni Maitake Corporation of America for use in his restaurant..  These items are Yukiguni dried maitakes, which have an unlimited shelf life and Yukiguni maitake tea, an earthy flavored brew containing a mixture of 100% dried maitakes and other Asian herbs.  For more information about maitakes and its health benefits, visit Yukiguni Maitake Corporation of America at www.yukigunimaitake.com .

                     The "Yukiguni" Maitake Mushroom
  • Tasty - Florence Fabricant, the food editor of the NY Times says Maitake Mushrooms are "quite meaty, with a delicately nutty flavor, and holds its shape and crips texture extremely well in the saute pan.  And it doesn't sop as much oil as other mushrooms."  Their unique aroma and crunchy texture make them a perfect match for any type of cuisine.
  • Healthy - Being rich in vitamins B1, B2, D, as well as vegetable fiber and ploysaccharides, Maitake Mushrooms promote good health.  All of Yukiguni Maitake Mushrooms are organically grown using pure subterranean water.  No agricultural chemicals, manure, chemical fertilizers or preservatives are used.
  • Legendary - In ancient times Maitake Mushrooms were considered both "precious and rare" (In fact, Shoguns once traded them pound for pound with silver).  Today, these still precious mushrooms grown in Yukiguni's immaculate facilities are available to all.
