Harm score: ()


The coralline coral, technically known as Hericium erinaceus, is a fungus that grows in nature on tree trunks, trunk stumps and stumps, especially oak stumps. The appearance of this fungus resembles that of a coral or a hedgehog with its spiny formations. It is a nutritious and medicinal mushroom that is popular in Asian cuisine and traditional medicine. Coral urchin is also known by chemical names such as Glyceryl monopalmitate, Hexadecanoic acid, 2,3-dihydroxypropyl ester and Hexadecanoic acid, monoester with 1,2,3-propanetriol, referring to its bioactive constituents.

The constituents of coralline urchin, such as glyceryl monopalmitate and others, are found in a variety of products, especially in food and medical preparations. The mushroom is used to make culinary specialties, including soups and sauces, as well as fermented beverages. It also produces extracts that are found in a range of dietary supplements designed to support the immune system, improve memory and concentration. For example, some studies suggest that it may have neuroprotective effects and help treat neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. It is used in cosmetics for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Specifically, it may appear in skin creams and serums where it helps to regenerate the skin.
