SUPER MUSHROOM COMPLEX

Super mushroom complex used for more than 2,000 years in Asia, so respected it was thought to grant immortality. It mostly affects our immune system and our glandular system, influencing how we feel.

They contain polysaccharides which stimulate the immune system which in turn fights viruses and bacteria by stimulating the production of our T cells. Its most impressive role however is to fight cancer.

Reishi mushrooms cause a dramatic increase in “natural killer” cells, which will kill off cancer cells and shrink tumours, slowing the spread of cancer.

It is also a great anti-inflammatory agent against allergies, asthma and inflammatory skin conditions and gives a sense of well-being.

They can be grown at home, on a log in the sun and some starter fungus called spawn. In the wild they grow on dead fallen trees like maples and beech trees.

They look like the quintessential mushroom with a stem and an umbrella-like brown cap. They’ve been around in China for over 800 years and are heavily used in Asian cuisine.

Basically Shiitakes are another amazing immune boosting food, able to fight infections of any kind from dental cavities to cancer (contain lentinan which is known to suppress tumour growth).

They are heart friendly…ie lower cholesterol and reducing the blood from sticking so excellent remedy for atherosclerosis and high blood pressure.

MUSHROOM COMPLEX/NYSHROON COMPLEX SUPPLEMENT

Generally it’s not recommended to eat mushrooms raw as they might cause indigestion.

Heating medicinal mushrooms is best, to release the polysaccharide-rich nutrients….so preferably simmer in water as a liquid broth.

These mushrooms can also be sautéed, steamed or baked with other foods. They are also great in soups or with wild rice or quinoa. Marinating and dehydrating shiitake helps to soften the fibres and can also increase the nutritional value. They are also great added to miso soup.
