We know you are coming to us for help with a specific health issue that’s dragging you down. We take your trust in us to help you feel better seriously. That’s why we only use ingredients that have been proven effective in clinical research.
It’s frustrating to buy a product that doesn’t work. Yet if you only take a fraction of the researched dose of an ingredient, you probably won’t get the results you’re looking for. That’s why we make sure every dose in our products is a researched dose.
It’s important that your supplement contains everything it should (like the listed ingredients, at the listed potencies) and nothing it shouldn’t (like contaminants and adulterants). That’s why we always subject our finished products to 7 quality assurance tests.
AHCC®
AHCC® cultured extract of hybridized medicinal mushroom mycelia (roots) is one of the world’s most researched specialty immune supplements.
Curcumin-SR™
Unleash the power of curcumin with MicroCurcumin™, an innovative curcumin formulation with 10x greater bioavailability than regular curcumina
Oligonol®
Low-molecular-weight polyphenol derived from lychee fruit and green tea. It has several anti-aging effects, including reducing wrinkles and brown spots.
Many people turn to alternative and complementary therapies to boost their immune systems. But with so many different choices, all claiming to be the best, it can be hard to separate scientifically validated products from the fads. AHCC® makes it easy.
AHCC® is an extensively studied, highly efficacious, 100% natural supplement for bolstering the human immune system.* A proprietary extract of hybridized medicinal mushroom mycelia (roots), AHCC® is:
Quality of Life was the first company to introduce AHCC® back in 2002 when it won the prestigious NutrAward for Best New Product of the Year. Since then, it has remained our most popular and highly rated product.
Kinoko® Platinum AHCC® contains 750 mg of AHCC® in each vegetarian capsule. A four-capsule serving provides 3 grams of AHCC® — the recommended dose for those requiring advanced immune support* Human clinical research has shown that this dosage of AHCC® supports healthy cells throughout the body, including cells in hormone-sensitive tissues such as the prostate, breast, and ovaries, as well as cells in the liver, stomach, and colon.* And that’s one of the many reasons why people buy AHCC®!

AHCC®
AHCC® works as a biological response modifier, which means it turns up the dial on your natural immune response and strengthens your resistance.* It works by increasing the numbers and activity of white blood cells in the body. AHCC® increases the activity of natural killer cells, the body’s first line of defense, by as much as 300-800%.* It boosts populations of macrophages, which engulf and destroy foreign material.* It increases the number of dendritic cells, which identify immune threats and lead T cells to them.* And it boosts the numbers and activity of T cells, which recognize previously encountered immune threats and eliminate them on the spot.*

Suggested Use: 2 vegicaps before a meal, up to twice daily.
Other ingredients:hypromellose (derived from cellulose) capsule and leucine.
Each vegetarian capsule of Kinoko® Platinum AHCC® delivers 750 mg of AHCC®, making it easier and more convenient to achieve the 3 g daily dosage recommended during times of heightened immune challenges.

What makes AHCC® so effective? First, it contains a special class of polysaccharides called alpha glucans, which are powerful immune-boosters.* Glucans are common in all medicinal mushrooms, but the alpha glucans in AHCC® are more potent than the beta-glucans found in most other mushrooms. Second, AHCC® solves the principal problem facing most medicinal mushroom supplements: poor absorption. While most medicinal mushroom extracts have a molecular weight of more than 200,000 daltons, AHCC® is manufactured through a patented process that reduces its molecular size to under 5,000 daltons — increasing absorption and enhancing efficacy.
We are the only brand in the supplement industry that can guarantee that every single ingredient in every one of our products is backed by human studies and delivered in doses consistent with clinical research
You can return items purchased directly from Quality of Life Labs for any reason within 30 days of purchase. See our Returns page for full details.
We package almost all of our products in glass bottles with metal lids for one simple reason: Glass and metal do the best job of protecting our supplements from light, oxygen, and moisture — all of which can degrade vitamins, minerals, botanicals, and other nutraceuticals and lessen their potency and freshness.
When you choose Quality of Life, you can trust your supplements to work because 100 percent of the ingredients in every product we manufacture are provided in dosages that match the clinical research.
Backed by the best.
The same raw material is used for both Kinoko Gold and Kinoko Platinum AHCC. The only difference is that Kinoko Gold contains 500mg of AHCC per capsule, while Kinoko Platinum contains 750mg of AHCC per capsule. Similar as Kinoko Gold, Kinoko 50+ AHCC contains 500mg of AHCC per capsule. But doesn't just deliver a powerful AHCC dose; it's also crafted to address the exact immune challenges faced by older individuals with the addition of Lactobacillus paracasei (MCC1849), a sterilized probiotic. This makes it the ideal choice for those in this age bracket seeking enhanced immune support.
Allergies to mushrooms are most often associated with exposure to mushroom spores. These spores originate in the top of the mushroom, called the fruiting body. However, AHCC®is derived from the mycelia, or the root of the mushroom, which does not contain spores. In addition, as part of the manufacturing process, the raw material is subjected to a fermentation process that breaks down the high molecular weight molecules that are very tough to digest into low molecular weight compounds. This process further lowers any allergenic potential. Many people who believe they are allergic to mushrooms take AHCC®successfully. However, if you are concerned, please check with a healthcare professional that specializes in natural products or begin taking AHCC®very slowly. This can be done by starting with a quarter of a capsule on the tip of your tongue and if you don't experience itching in your mouth or other signs of allergy, work your way up to 2 to 6 capsules per day over a period of several days.
No AHCC®does not lose its effectiveness over time. As shown in an AHCC®placebo-controlled scientific trial, patients who used AHCC®regularly over a ten-year period had consistent and significant improvement as compared to the placebo group, therefore showing no signs of the ingredient losing effectiveness.*
Two studies conducted at the highly prestigious MD Anderson Cancer Center and published in the Journal of Integrative Oncology explored AHCC®’s interaction with other medications. These studies determined that AHCC® is metabolized via a pathway called “P450 2D6,” meaning that AHCC® has the potential to increase or decrease the absorption of a drug that uses the same pathway.
Therefore if you are taking another medication and are concerned about possible interactions, we recommend you ask a medical professional if the drug you are taking is metabolized through the cytochrome P450 2D6 class of enzymes. Most likely, the answer will be “no,” which means that AHCC® is highly unlikely to interact with the drug you are taking.
