Antrodia camphorata, also named Antrodia cinnamomea, Taiwanofungus camphorata, niu-chang-chih or niu-chang-ku, and the host plant, niu-chang, is the Chinese common name for Cinnamomum kanehirai, which is an endangered species in Taiwan.  “Ku” in Chinese means mushroom, and “chih” means Ling Zhi-like fungus.  Now, the active components including polysaccharides, Adenosine, Sesamin, Antrosterol and γ-aminobutyric acid are proved by scientists for their beneficial effects.  Grape King Antrodia King made by Grape King Bioengineering Center contains refined extracts of frozen-dried fermented mycelia.  This mycelium product is helpful to human body.

Grape king Bio is a manufacture of functional ingredients for the food, beverage, medical food and pharmaceutical industries.  We can use the fermentation technology to produce many kind of mushroom mycelium such as Antrodia camphorata, Ganoderma lucidum, Cordyceps, Coriolus versicolor, Phellinus linteus, Grifola frondosa, Hericium erinaceum, Lignosus rhinocerus and Armillaria mellea.  These kinds of extracts are mycelium products; they can be food additives and functional ingredients.  For the Antrodia camphorata mycelia, it is red-brown powder containing at less 12% active polysaccharide.  Other effective ingredients containing Adenosine ≥ 0.8 mg/g, Sesamin ≥ 1.2 mg/g, Antrosterol ≥ 3.0 mg/g and γ-aminobutyric acid ≥ 4.0 mg/g.
