A toxicology study noted no significant influences on blood lipoprotein markers or TGs, just a non-significant beneficial trend in otherwise healthy adults. No influence was noted on superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, DNA damage as assessed by comet assay, C-RP, or total antioxidant defenses. No influence on the CD4:CD8 lymphocytic ratio was noted, and total leucocytes were unchanged.
The dosing was 1.44g extract (13.2g mushroom equivalent) for 29 days in otherwise healthy adults.
