Latijnse naam: Agaricus blazei, Agaricus subrufescens, Agaricus brasiliensis

Andere namen: ABM, almond mushroom, mushroom of the sun (Engels), Mandelpilz, Brasilianischer mandel-Egerling (Duits), Agaricus blazei (Frans)

Actieve componenten: polysacchariden (beta glucanen, heteroglucanen, xyloglucanen), enzymen (amylase, trypsine, martese, protease, tyrosinase), glycoproteïnen (lectine) 

De oorsprong van deze paddenstoel is terug te voeren op het stadje Piedade, in de buurt van Sao Paulo in Brazilië. Het klimaat aldaar is ideaal voor de verspreiding van deze soort paddenstoel. Tegenwoordig wordt het ook gekweekt onder dezelfde geconditioneerde condities.
