Shitake Tincture Double Extraction
Shitake Tincture Double Extraction
Shitake Mushroom, double extraction (water and alcohol)
To maximize the benefits of Shitake, we use a double extraction. This involves first creating a decoction and extracting the water-soluble compounds (polysaccharides). After that, the mushrooms are tinctured in 190 proof Everclear for a minimum of 6 weeks to extract the ethanol-soluble compounds (which includes numerous
constituents).
This tincture will stay stable for an indefinite amount of time as long as it is protected from heat and excessive light.
USAGE: Shitake can be used in cosmetics and should be added during a heated phase (preferably a water phase) to allow the alcohol to flash off. The beneficial components will remain in your cosmetic. Recommended usage rate is 0.1-2%
SHITAKE is known to activate the immune system, so people with autoimmune diseases should avoid using this product.
