  Key Ingredients  

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 Tcells, which recognize previously encountered immune threats and eliminate them on the spot.* 

100% of our ingredients are backed by human clinical studies.

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 3g daily dosage recommended during times of heightened immune challenges.

What Kinoko® Platinum AHCC® Can Bring To You 

  • Significantly improves immune response*
  • Strengthens resistance*
  • Maintains peak natural killer cell and T-cell activity*

The Most Effective MedicinalMushroom Product Available

What makes AHCC so effective? First, it contains a special classof polysaccharides called alpha glucans, which are powerfulimmune-boosters.*Glucans are common in all medicinalmushrooms, but the alpha glucans in AHCC are more potentthan the beta-glucans found in most other mushrooms. Second,AHCC solves the principal problem facing most medicinalmushroom supplements: poor absorption. While most medicinalmushroom extracts have a molecular weight of more than200,000 daltons, AHCC is manufactured through a patentedprocess that reduces its molecular size to under 5,000 daltons -increasing absorption and enhancing efficacy.

    Brand story

    Quality of Life was founded on a simple premise: Your nutritional supplements should work. Sounds obvious, right? Yet all too often, supplements make big promises and then deliver disappointing results. There’s a reason for this. Well, two reasons, really: ineffective ingredients and inadequate doses.

      More than 20 years ago, our founding team attended a research symposium in Sapporo, Japan, where they learned about an amazing mushroom extract called AHCC®. This extract was widely used in Japan but was unheard of in the United States. As they listened to various scientific presentations on this ingredient, they kept hearing one sentence over and over: AHCC® improves people's quality of life. And so, an idea was born.

      They set out on a mission to bring this unique ingredient into the United States and to educate Americans about its benefits. And what would they name their company?
      "Quality of Life" of course!

      We've come a long way since those days, having brought over a dozen other innovative ingredients into the U.S. market from Japan and various other parts of the world. But one thing has stayed consistent: Our desire to improve your quality of life by manufacturing the most efficacious supplements on earth. Today, we remain the only company in the supplement industry that can make you the following promise:


      Every single ingredient in every one of our products is backed by human studies and delivered in doses consistent with clinical research.

      No exceptions, no compromises.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      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.

      This product truly works. Pap waspositive for hpv last year. I readthe reviews. Bought this and havebeen taking it on and off for ayear. Test was negative this time!My DR said it was likely to pass onits own but i wanted the help withsupplements. I didn't just want todo nothing and "wait" which ishow i even found these pills.Another reviewer added that shebought Folate & B12, Zinc, GreenTea and beta caratone pills so iliterally bought everything. I wasvery inconsistent with the otherpills after a while but this mainone I would remember more soIdo think it'll work without theother pills. But again, I did havethem and mix them from time totime. Super grateful for thissupplement. I still have a bottleleft and even though my test wasnegative I'll just finish it out dueto the overall benefits. As well asall the other pills. I can't reallyswallow pills so i did chew it upeach time and the taste wasn'tbad. Even if it was it's for apurpose and i am glad i am clearagain.

      Negative after over 10+ years! I will no longer be afraid to share my struggle and fears. I did not take this seriously in the first few years so it lingered. I felt so violated having to get papsmears so often every 6 months, sometimes within 3 months, just to stay ontop of the consistent abnormal results. I wanted to not book or attend my appointments. I unknowingly became chronically inflamed from the digging and scraping and was so used to it, I thought the consistent discomfort was normal. A new gyn caught it and rx antibiotics and I felt the difference. I bought these bottles like clock work. I was definitely bothered by the price but as you all know, what other options do we have? I was desperate and determined. I also practiced abstinence. I had to break the cycle or risk catching cancer in several places of my body. I coupled these (some days I would do 4 caps, some days 6 caps) with other vitamins like (green tea, tumeric, vit C, folate, zinc, iron, beta glucans) like clock work for 4-5 months and then stopped with these (they are not meant to be taking for long periods of time). But continued with a CHEAPER (lol) brand of a mushroom complex that I still take. I was negative ~4 months after that. You will need to spend $100's to be cured but it is worth it if you do it right. God bless the women who came before me and shared there receipts on here! I was very emotional knowing there were others who had hope and never gave up and we're cured. It's all about boosting your immune system. So, YES you will have to stop smoking, eating crap, being an alcoholic and use condoms, and no oral or cheaters to see any positive results Re real with yourself and don't waste your own time. Research and the clinical study being conducted on mice by the female Dr. J (can't recall here name) brought me here! You guys are awesome for being so brave! Whenever you decide to BELIEVE in something positive, god will be there to guide you every step of the way. But you have to be ready and serious. ���� As for me this chapter is closed...join me!

      I've been a huge supporter of this brand for about a year because I find the supplement helpful. I was recommended to try this brand. It's expensive compared to others. I didn't mind paying the price if quality, but now it's just dangerous to continue to do so due to bad packaging and mishandling during delivery. It's so damaged I couldve severely injured myself just by taking it out the plastic. I could have missed the crack in the glass and ingested glass as well. I just so happened to inspect carefully. Of course we appreciate the glass bottles if preserving quality. However, by how expensive and how much profit the company recieves on every bottle of this supplement, I'm sure their profitable margins are more than enough to ensure safe delivery of their products with better packaging to support the glass bottles. Beyond possible injury there's nothing more disappointing than wanting the benefits of a supplement especially if your asymptomatic person and paid the high price only to recieve a broken bottle with glass pieces and then having to reorder and wait for shipping again. So unfortunately Im going to move on to another brand. The upside is for sure I'll save money without compromising. Luckily AHCC itself is a widely available supplement.

      Like many women, I'd been told in my mid-40's that I suddenly had both Type 16 and Type 18 strains of human papillomavirus (HPV) present when I went in for my yearly PAP. These are the two strains that are most prone to causing cervical cancer. These viruses are contracted by many women, but remain dormant in most. For some women, though, they can suddenly become active (particularly in women over 40 years old). This leads to a lot of stress and worry, since modern medicine uses a "wait and see" approach to see if an active HPV infection turns into cancer. I was not into the waiting game, and I'd read about a promising 10-person pilot study by the University of Texas that had some good results using 3 grams (3,000 mg) of AHCC/day to treat active HPV infections in women. I started taking Premium Kinoko Platinum AHCC Supplement C 750mg of AHCC per Capsule for two months, only to find that it gave me the runs. Pretty badly. So I switched to a different brand for another 4 months with great improvement in my digestive issues. Now, 6 months after starting AHCC, I get another PAP test and find out that BOTH strains of HPV are GONE. And I'd been struggling with them for close to two years! I can't say if one brand of AHCC I took was better than the other as far as viral elimination, so I am leaving this review on both brands. I intend to take AHCC for another 4 months, just to be safe, but it's good to know that there may be options for those of us who can spend the money to hopefully avoid the dreaded waiting game.

      PLEASE READ First off, were in this together. Dont be scared because you and millions of others are not alone in this, and you may be embarrassed, stressed, or downright scared. You can get control of this. AHCC has been proven to work by their OWN researchers and developers (google it). Theres no concrete evidence or studies from other reliable sources other than the companies that makes these.. located somewhere in Asia if I recall correctly and all are behind these different brands. Bottom line, I used this for years and then stopped for years and my HPV was dormant... I guess. Just 3 months ago, it was back with dysplasia. I purchased Kinoko Gold and Platinum (I only used Papillex one time) and I read how people on Reddit pretty much swear by AHCC but theres no proof that it works... thats basically saying weve all been getting lucky? Anyway.. I knew my follow up pap was in 3 months and I was facing a leep procedure. I didnt want that. NOW PAY ATTENTION. Folate & B12, Zinc, and Green Tea have all been proven to help clear HPV. So I purchased EVERYTHING. I also purchased BETA CARATONE because some woman said her doctor suggested to just take that daily and not to waste money on AHCC at all. 3 months later, not 6 months but 3 months later, my pap is normal and no dysplasia. Will AHCC work for you alone? I have no idea. It either worked for me in the past or the Hpv cleared up on its own. But Im ecstatic that my pap is normal 3 months later so... FOLATE & B12 (not to be confused with Folic acid. Ppl confuse the 2) GREEN TEA or GREEN TEA PILLS, AHCC, ZINC, BETA CARATONE. Take ALL OF THESE DAILY in addition to AHCC. I also take multivitamins sometimes, not every day. Vitamin C, organic oil of oregano which is anti viral and extremely good for you, probiotics and magnesium. I take all of this stuff on a full stomach thru out the course of the day. I just started taking some of the supplements I just mentioned. But the ones listed above, I took every one of those every single day for 3 months and Im good so far. I also read some ppl saying that once they stopped taking AHCC, their hpv was dormant temporarily. So you may have to take them for the rest of your life. But hey, it may be worth it. It might work for you. Good luck and dont ever feel discouraged or feel like you wasted money because at the end of the day, these are all things thats still good for your immune system even if it doesnt work or takes a long time to work. Build that immune system and speak with your doctor about taking these supplements if youre unsure. Stay vigilant and God bless.

      In March 2025 my pap showed LSIL and I immediately researched what supplements would help. I decided to give AHCC a try and took them pretty consistently for about eleven months. Because of the price, I took 2 capsules (1.5g) first thing in the morning an hour before breakfast. A year later during my follow up pap, my results are normal and no HPV! Obviously I don't know if AHCC is to thank for that, because I also started taking a multivitamin (Metagenics Phytomulti). But when I mentioned I was taking AHCC to my gynecologist, she approved and said mushroom supplements are the best supplements you can take for HPV. If you've had an abnormal Pap smear, I recommend taking these if only for the peace of mind! Thank you to all the previous reviewers here whose reviews convinced me to bite the bullet.

      Well this is my testimonial. After having HPV for 6 years, I began to get super frustrated that it was not clearing on its own. Then I saw online that there are herbal remedies you can take and this brand popped up. I saw a few persons saying it helped clear their HPV. Ill admit the price deterred me for a few months until I decided I didnt have anything to lose. I took this for about 2 1/2 months then had my gynecologist visit. I thought it wasnt long enough for do anything but when I got my results my HPV had cleared!! Im so grateful because I thought it was something I might have to live with and having risk of potential cervical cancer. Definitely get this if youre dealing with the same issue!!

      I was scared out of my mind when I tested positive for high risk HPV and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (abnormal cell that are more likely to turn into cancer). That was on April 6th. I did extensive research and started on this regimen about 2 weeks after my diagnosis... two (2) 500mg AHCC, with one (1) 500mg Beta 1,3 Glucan, twice a day, for 2.5 months. I did run out of the glucan about 2 weeks early and continued with the AHCC. When I tested again on July 8th, not only was I HPV free, but I had a completely normal test! No signs of inflammation, no candida, no cellular changes of any kind. I didnt catch the flu that was going around while I was taking these, despite being around sick kids and co-workers. I had no side effects. I will continue to take these for immunity, but I plan to cut down to 1-500mg per day. I was not under the supervision of a doctor while taking these, nor did I consult with a physician before starting the regime or after I completed it. I just self-prescribed, crossed my fingers, and hoped for the best.
