			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>Videos of Wild Maitake Mushrooms foraging and hunting</h1>
<p> </p>
<p>This video shows a couple hikers who discovered a nice size Maitake mushroom (Grifola frondosa).</p>
<p>They do a pretty good job describing the mushroom and where they found it. Also interesting is one an mentioned he had bought some Maitake spawn plugs and goes around his neighbourhood drilling holes in hardwood trees and stuffing in Maitake spawn plugs. And that he&#8217;s hoping to have them show up in 2-3 years around his neighbourhood.</p>
<p>That sounds like fun. But I can guess that the neighbours would get a little upset when you innoculate their teee with a wood degrading fungus  <img src='http://mushroommaitake.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt="icon wink Maitake Mushroom Foraging" class='wp-smiley' title="Maitake Mushroom Foraging" /><br />
This video shows a variety of snapshots of wild Maitake with an interesting elecro music background.</p>
<p>There seems to be a variety of Maitake and possibly other types of mushrooms (maybe chicken of the woods).</p>

<p>End of August, first part of september to October, you find Oak trees like the one in the video. He mentions that there are no look alikes to Maitake that are poisonous.<br />
And he&#8217;s been harvesting/foraging maitakes from this tree for the last threee years.</p>

<p>The<a title="maitake mushroom" href="http://mushroommaitake.com" target="_blank"> maitake mushroom </a>is a an interesting looking fungi.  I recently went into the snowy mountains of Japan to visit the company that first discovered how to grow Maitake mushrooms indoors.</p>
<p>I took a few pictures:</p>

<div class="mceTemp">In this photo I am about to harvest this Maitake mushroom, which is bigger than my head.</div>
<div class="mceTemp">The white part is the mycelium (roots) of the mushroom totally grown over a trade secret mix of wood chips, sawdust and other food-stuffs that are devoured by Maitake mycelium.</div>
<div class="mceTemp">This was really fun for me because I have tried to grow Maitake mushrooms myself in a similar manner. But they alwasy just turned into something looking like a small brain. And never grew to their full mature size.</div>
<div class="mceTemp">The worker gave me some plastic gloves and informed me (in Japanese) to grab underneath the mushroom and gently rock it back and forth while pulling up. I could feel a tearing of tissue sensation and then the whole thing popped up.</div>
<div class="mceTemp">This nex photo is the AFTER shot:</div>
<div class="mceTemp">
<p><div id="attachment_39" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://mushroommaitake.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Freshly-picked-Maitake-mushroom.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-39" title="Freshly picked Maitake mushroom" src="http://mushroommaitake.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Freshly-picked-Maitake-mushroom-300x225.jpg" alt="Freshly picked Maitake mushroom 300x225 Maitake Mushroom" width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">I just picked this massive Maitake mushroom and I&#39;m so proud of my new baby (the mushroom)</p></div></p>

<div class="mceTemp">I bought this one for about $10 and took it home. We were eating Maitake recipes for the next three days.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How to find the<strong> best Maitake extract.</strong></p>
<p>As you&#8217;ve probably already found out, there are a lot of Maitake extracts and Maitake supplements on the market.</p>
<p>And it is a serious challenge to understand what exactly they are selling and if it is the best value and effect.</p>
<p>Even for myself, after a decade of mushroom research in the laboratory, I still have a hard time figuring out what some companies are selling. Especially the biggest companies. It seems that I&#8217;m going in an endless circle trying to understand what is in their product and how it is made.</p>
<p>It is not an accident that many companies make it tough to figure out how they are producing the products. Where the mushrooms were grown. How they are quantifying thier claims. And what exact research has been done on THEIR product. NOT on other Maitake products which they try to appear similar to.</p>
<p>A major problem I see daily are companies that &#8220;sandwich&#8221; their small research results between major research done on other extracts. Making it look like all of that research was done on their product. It&#8217;s a clever trick that even some scientific journals did not notice before allowing the publishing of weak research.  Every science journal claims to be &#8220;peer reviewed&#8221;. But things slip throught the cracks.</p>
<p>Anyways what I&#8217;m trying to say is, if you are getting confused when trying to compare products and their research support, IT&#8217;S NOT YOUR FAULT!</p>
<p>It comes down to business. And companies trying to make the biggest profit by selling cheap Chinese extracts and making them appear to be high value. It&#8217;s good business on the sellers&#8217; side.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>So the topic of this post is how to find the <strong>best Maitake extract</strong>.</p>
<p>Luckily there are a few simple ways to avoid low value/high price products.</p>
<p>1) There is only one Maitake extract which is patented from initial discoveries in Japan and then studied and published in American human clinical trials.</p>
<p>It is patent 5,854,404.</p>
<p>2) There are quite a few companies that sell this patented extract, branded under various names. So it is quite easy to compare quantity on a milligram basis across different companies&#8217; products. So we can compare clearly how many milligrams are in a whole box/bottle and divide by the total price. To get the price per milligram.</p>
<p>Price per milligram is the best way to compare these patented Maitake extracts.</p>
<p>3) The research on all Maitake patent 5,854,404 extract is the same. Because it is the same extract. That makes it simple to find the best product.</p>
<p>Now that you know which maitake extract patent is the authentic one and how to compare price on a milligram basis, please go <a href="http://maitakeqolextract.com">take a look HERE and try to find a better Maitake product</a> (price, quantity or dose wise)</p>

<div>As a man, whose wife has been surviving stage 3B lung cancer for 5 years and has been taking Maitake extracts the whole time, I may be a bit biased about this fantastic mushroom.</div>
<p>And &#8220;biased&#8221; is probably an understatement. <strong>I friggin&#8217; LOVE Maitake mushrooms</strong>.</p>
<p>First of all, the are delicious. I live in Japan, so I can buy a bunch of fresh Maitake at the local grocery store for about $1 or $2. Ask your local grocer to stock them.</p>
<p>Here are a few cooking ideas:</p>
<ul>
<li>Put them in miso soup </li>
<li>Stir fry them with other veggies.</li>
<li>Chop em&#8217; up and stuff them into gyoza.</li>
<li>Add them to your stew or soup. (the maitake beta glucans are hot water soluable, so the soup will be a real immune booster)</li>
<li>Mix them into your hamburger mix.</li>
<li>Steam them and eat them straight</li>
</ul>
<div>No matter how you prepare them, they are always yummy.<br />
An important thing to keep in mind is, you should heat or cook them some way. The heat helps to break the mushroom cell walls (made of a hard substance called chitin). Once the cell walls are ruptured by heat, you will be better to digest and absorb all the goodness inside.</div>
<p>A point about digestion. Maitake (<em>Grifola frondosa</em>) contain a lot of dietary fiber. So you don&#8217;t actually digest all of it 100%. And as you probably know, dietary fiber is great to clean the pipes.</p>
<p>Another component of Maitake that is not digested is the immune modulating &#8220;1-6-, 1-3 beta glucans&#8221;.<br />
These are the components that have recieved international scientific research from Japan to America. And continue to be used in human clinical trials in America by large research centers.</p>
<p>Phase 1 and 2 clinical trials have already been published. And now phase 3 clinical trials are underway. That is great news for all of us who want to know the correct dose to take for the best support. And to prove the physical and cellular effects of this patented extract on the human body.</p>
<p>I could blab on and on about Maitake Mushroom.</p>
<p>But it&#8217;s probably better if you <a href="http://maitakeqolextract.com">just go HERE and learn more about authentic patented Maitake extracts</a>. </p>
<div> See you there.</div>

<p>Hi there.</p>
<p>I want to thank you for taking the guts, time and energy to look into Maitake and why you might want to eat it or take it&#8217;s extracts.</p>
<p>I have been studying mushrooms and their health benefits for over a decade. And after moving to Japan, I have been able to learn a lot more about the fantastic effects of the Maitake Mushroom and its extracts and fractions.</p>
<p>My wife got stage 3B lung cancer, and has been taking a type of Maitake fraction developed in Japan, for the last 5 years. We believe it helped her in many ways.</p>
<p>I was fortunate enough to meet the man who discovered and patented the maitake extract  (unfortunately the original name of this fraction has been trademarked by a company in America. And is just known now as patent 5,854,404 maitake extract). He is the Dean of Kobe Pharmacuetical Unversity, in Japan. He and his laboratory of professional scientists have been making non-stop discoveries about the effects of this maitake fraction for over a decade. The scientific evidence is growing worldwide.</p>
<p>I was so lucky to able to spend a short time in this Professor&#8217;s laboratories as an assistant to one of their researchers. During this time, I could see first hand the amazing effects of Maitake.</p>
<p>I wrote this blog to help others discover Maitake and spread the word to their friends and family. And to anyone who could benefit from it&#8217;s support.</p>
