The base of this organic broth is the Japanese spice miso, made from a fermented mixture of soybeans, koji culture, and Shiitake mushrooms. Shiitake mushrooms are edible and widely consumed in East Asian countries, recognized for their rich umami flavor and unique nutritional value. The qualities of the mushrooms and miso are complemented by additions of carrot, garlic, ginger, celery, licorice, lemongrass, pepper, and cumin. The product contains no preservatives or artificial flavor enhancers.

Miso is rich in nutrients such as proteins, fibers, vitamins, minerals (potassium), and amino acids. The soy protein in miso may contribute to lowering cholesterol levels, while vitamin E, saponins, and dietary fibers improve skin health and appearance.

Unpasteurized miso contains beneficial bacteria (probiotics) that can enhance gut health and facilitate digestion. The koji culture breaks down the nutrients in soy, making them more digestible and allowing the body to gain even more benefits from consuming soy.

Consumption of Shiitake mushrooms also offers additional benefits for health-conscious consumers. Ancient Chinese texts describe Shiitake mushrooms as aphrodisiacs and stimulants of youthfulness and masculinity. In Chinese medicine, these mushrooms are believed to promote health by improving blood circulation and encouraging long-term health.

Eating Shiitake is good prevention for heart diseases. Scientists have identified three ingredients in the mushrooms—eritadenine, sterols, and beta-glucans—that help reduce cholesterol levels.

These mushrooms are rich in fibers, vitamins B5 and B6, which are responsible for skin cell renewal and nervous system function, and vitamin D, essential for every city dweller. Shiitake is also rich in minerals such as selenium, manganese, and zinc, and is among the four richest sources of copper.

Shiitake can help vegetarians and vegans replenish amino acids that the body typically obtains from meat. The composition of Shiitake is equivalent to that of fish or beef.
