Tiger Milk Mushroom is a medicinal fungus, with the scientific name of Lignosus rhinocerus (Cooke) Ryvarden. Tiger Milk Mushroom grows in cool and humid area of wild forests. According to the aboriginal, Tiger Milk Mushroom only grows on the spot where the female tiger’s milk drips. Therefore, Tiger Milk Mushroom is also known as “tiger milk”.

The medicinal history of Tiger Milk Mushroom had reached more than 400 years. The earliest record is in 1664, a navigator named John Evelyn recorded in his diary that the Jesuits of Japan and China contributed precious tiger milk to the treasure stock of Paris.

This precious treasure was not well known until 2012 when Dr. Tun Mahathir, the former Malaysia Prime Minister, presented a key note at the Biotechnology Conference. He then mentioned that Tiger Milk Muhsroom had helped him to heal the coughing issues that interfered him for years.

The sclerotium filled with mycelium grows in the soil, while the woody stalk and cap grow from the sclerotia in the soil. The sclerotium is the real part of the medicine. When the stalk and cap grow out of the sclerotium, the nutrition or medicinal effect in the sclerotium gradually decreases.

Sclerotia of Tiger Milk Mushroom grows in the soil, therefore it can only be identified and collected after the stalk and cap grow out from it. However, when the stalk and cap grow, the efficacy of the sclerotia will then decrease. Due to the over-exploitation of forests and environmental pollution, the risk of collecting sclerotia with heavy metal pollution increased. As compared to wild tiger milk mushroom, cultivated TMM will possesses much stable medicinal value and is safe for consumption.

Yes, different cultivation and treatment processes will affect the color and quality of Tiger Milk Mushroom. TigerPro’s proprietary cultivation technology is cultivated by imitating the natural tiger milk mushroom growth method. The grown sclerotia are the same as the wild ones. Therefore, the color remains milky white after being grinded into powder.

Another cultivation technique is to use liquid fermentation technology. Because nutrients are put in the liquid, most of the tiger milk mushroom mycelium produced by liquid fermentation is pale yellow.

TigerPro’s proprietary cultivation technology imitate the natural growth of tiger milk mushroom. TigerPro is only cultivated after strain screening and DNA identification. During the cultivation process, we will transplant mycelium into a sawdust bag. When the mycelium is full and mature, we will then transfer and plant it in the soil where sclerotia will grow out of the sawdust bag. When mycelium is cultivated, it grows in a temperature-controlled environment. The entire process takes up to a year.

According to third edition of the Drug Registration Guidance Document (DRGD) issued by the Ministry of Health of Malaysia in January 2021, Tiger Milk Mushroom is classified as a traditional herbal medicine. If Tiger Milk Mushroom used in the product has not undergone special treatment and claims to have medical effects, but is used in food, it does not need to be registered for MAL.

A recommendation of 100-200 mg for tolders (1-2 years old) and 200-500 mg for children over 2 years old. The latest human clinical trial data shown an improvement in the lung function, immune system as well as the anti-inflammatory after a 3 month of 600mg TigerPro consumptions.

Both liquid and powder form is stable.

First of all, it is necessary to detect the source of tiger milk mushroom, the processing process, and the effective ingredients. In term of food safety, it depends on content of heavy metals and microorganisms.

Children, adults and the elderly. Tiger Milk Mushroom is especially recommended for individuals with lung problems, such as asthma, sinusitis, children or the elderly with weakened immunity, smokers, etc.

These problems are often caused by inflammation of cells in the lungs or trachea. Results from the human clinical trials proven that after consumption of TMM, interleukins (Interleukin 1β and 8) in the body were reduced. These interleukins are the factors that cause inflammation of cells in our body and lung problems. After reducing inflammation, Tiger Milk Mushroom will also regulate and strengthen the immune system and lung function.

Tiger Milk Mushroom enhances the body’s immune system through high nutritional value, high antioxidant, and high-component glucan. Tiger Milk Mushroom also promotes immunoglobulin A (Immunoglobulin A) in the body to regulate its own immune system. Studies have shown that boosting immune system can effectively reduce the probability of contracting new coronary pneumonia.

Generally speaking, there are four main effects of Tiger Milk Mushroom: boosting the immune system, boosting lung function, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and anti-cancer cells.

Each individual reacts differently. Some show positive reaction by showing improvement while some doesn’t show physical reaction.
