In the US, Shitake is available fresh or dried in oriental markets, health food markets, and even many supermarkets. In Japan, Lentinan, an extract of this mushroom, has been used against colorectal and stomach cancer, often in conjunction with other treatment such as chemotherapy, and Japanese researchers have presented data supporting this use. Like most of the other polysaccharide drugs, Lentinan appears to be an immunostimulant. Almost all of the Japanese studies use injected Lentinan, so it is very unclear whether eating Shitake mushrooms could have a beneficial effect aside from the considerable culinary virtues.
