Description
White Fungus (Tremella fuciformis) Extract Powder
White fungus is an edible mushroom that belongs to the Tremellaceae family. The white fungus has a white to pale yellow colour, a soft, jelly-like texture that’s almost translucent, and a shape that resembles underwater coral. White fungus is native to subtropical and tropical regions around the world including Brazil, Taiwan, China, Japan, and other Asian countries. China began cultivating the fungus around 1914 and new techniques began in 1968, leading to the mass production of the variety and the ability to export the mushroom in dried form worldwide. Up until this time, white fungus was for the exclusive use of royalty and the very wealthy. These mushrooms can be found fresh or dried at local markets around the world.
One of the mushrooms included in the “Shen Nong Ben Cao” (circa 200 AD) was white fungus, which has a long history of being used for medicine. Its traditional indications include clearing heat and dry skin, boosting the brain and enhancing beauty. Over the past 2,000 years, white fungus has been used as a beauty product by women in China and Japan, and it is claimed that if eaten, the mushrooms will contribute to a long and unblemished life.
White fungus has been hitting the headlines for its ability to boost skin hydration due to its high amounts of polysaccharides. White fungus acts as a “humectant” by holding over 500 times its weight in water, which is not quite as powerful as hyaluronic acid, however, an extra advantage of white fungus is that its particles are smaller than those of hyaluronic. In other words, white fungus delivers more hydration to the skin due to the smaller particle size compared to hyaluronic acid. The Snow Mushroom can create a flexible hydration film that can help restore dry skin to its optimal hydrated state. This helps to restore elasticity and has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. White fungus can help with wound healing, collagen production for plumper skin, and overall skin health.
The white fungus gelatinous structure is similar to the brain and is protected by regular consumption. White fungus offers neuro-protective and neurotrophic protection, which help to prevent neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s. The white fungus also promotes nerve growth factor. Nerve tissues are part of what is produced and repaired by nerve growth factors. Proper movement and response to stimuli can be achieved with a healthy nervous system. The immune-stimulating properties of the fungus are similar to those of most medicinal mushrooms. The macrophage activity is stimulated by the special proteins contained in it. The macrophage is a type of white blood cell that is used to eliminate bacteria and destroy harmful damaged tissue. The body can detect potential infections and harmful bacteria sooner with its improved immune sensitivity and polysaccharides content.
