Agaricus blazei

Also known as: almond mushroom, Agaricus subrufescens

Agaricus blazei (almond mushroom) is an edible mushroom from Brazil that is rich in beta-glucans. It is studied mainly for immune support, but human evidence is limited.

What it is used for

  • immune support – weak evidence from smaller studies
  • blood sugar and cholesterol support – weak evidence

Forms and how they differ

fruiting body extract

higher beta-glucan content – check the label

fruiting body powder

food form with lower content

When to take it

With food, any time of day.

Pairs well with

Vitamin D, vitamin C, other functional mushrooms.

Do not combine / separate

Take care combining with diabetes medicines and immunosuppressants.

Watch out for

Not suitable with liver disease (rare cases of liver injury have been reported). With autoimmune disease, diabetes, in pregnancy or when taking medicines, consult your doctor.

Safety

Do not exceed the label dose; choose products tested for heavy metals (mushrooms readily accumulate them).

Practical tip
