Successful Registration of Antrodia Cinnamomea as Novel Food in Thailand: A Milestone for Siam Trade Development
Siam Trade Development is proud to announce the successful registration of Antrodia Cinnamomea as a novel food in Thailand. After a rigorous 14-month process, we have been granted exclusive authorization by the Thai FDA under license number Sor Thor 1010/8964, dated May 29, 2024. This achievement marks a significant milestone for our company, positioning us as the sole authorized importer and user of this remarkable ingredient in Thailand.
What is Antrodia Cinnamomea?
Antrodia, also known as Niu-chang-chih mushroom powder or Camphor mushroom powder, is derived from the mycelia of the Antrodia Cinnamomea fungus. This rare and highly valued mushroom is indigenous to Taiwan and has been traditionally used for its potent medicinal properties. It grows on the inner heartwood of Cinnamomum kanehirae, a tree native to Taiwan, and has been revered for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine.
The Benefits of Antrodia Cinnamomea
Antrodia Cinnamomea is celebrated for its wide range of health benefits. It is particularly known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immune-boosting properties. Research has shown that the bioactive compounds in Antrodia Cinnamomea, such as triterpenoids and polysaccharides, help in fighting oxidative stress, reducing inflammation, and supporting overall immune function.
Additionally, Antrodia Cinnamomea has been associated with liver protection, making it a popular supplement for individuals seeking to support their liver health. Its hepatoprotective effects are believed to stem from its ability to detoxify the liver, reduce lipid accumulation, and combat liver inflammation.
Furthermore, studies have indicated that Antrodia Cinnamomea may possess anti-cancer properties. The mushroom’s active compounds have shown potential in inhibiting the growth of cancer cells and inducing apoptosis (programmed cell death) in various cancer cell lines.
