Developed in Japan in the mid 1980s, AHCC or popularly known as Active Hexose Correlated Compound is produced from the fermented extract of a hybrid of several medicinal mushrooms. In the last 20-plus years, AHCC has gained and shown promist as a treatment and preventive for everything from candida infections and post-traumatic stress disorder to hair loss and nausea caused by cancer treatment.
But health expert's studies show that AHCC may increase survival rate - and decrease recurrence - in cancer patients. In fact, in a nine-year study of 269 post-surgical liver cancer patients published in the Journal of Hepatology, the group taking AHCC (3 grams per day) showed a 13 percent higher rate of survival than those in the control group. Plus only 35 percent of the patients in the AHCC group had a recurrence of cancer compared to 66 percent in the control group.
