MUSHROOMS: NATURES MIRACLE IMMUNE BUILDER
Chemicals within mushrooms have been clinically evaluated and are shown to have anti-viral, anti-bacteria, immune-stimulating, qualities. Oncology studies, performed at cancer hospitals show the adjunct use of different mushrooms along with conventional chemotherapy treatment significantly improve the survivability rate of different types of cancers. Polysaccharides one of the main constituents of medicinal mushrooms, exert their anti tumor action by activating the immune response of the host animal. Wasser and Weis, in 1999 reported that these biological response modifiers are polysaccharides. Brekhaman , reports they, “cause no harm and place no additional stress on the body, help the body to adapt to various environmental and biological stresses and they exert a non specific action on the body, supporting some or all of its systems, including nervous, hormonal, and immune systems, as well as regulatory function”.
