A potent mushroom for long-term immune support. Dr Jean Monro has proven Coriolus-MRL increases Natural Killer cell activity in her patients at the Breakspear Hospital, Hemel Hempstead and uses Coriolus in many of her other patient programmes, as has Dr Julian Kenyon at the Dove Clinic, London and Winchester. Dr Couto, an eminent Gynaecologist in Lisbon, showed a 91% success rate in controlling the HPV virus using Coriolus in his female patients.
This mushroom is one of the most exciting of the new mushrooms. It contains beta glucan polysaccharides, along with polypeptides and fatty acids that help modulate the immune system, boosting white blood cell count to help the healing process. However, the most stimulating area of interest is its ability to help combat some of the symptoms and underlying causes of dementia and Alzheimer's disease as well as other peripheral neurological dysfunction’s.
From an anti-ageing perspective, Lion’s Mane, due to its low molecular weight, has been shown to pass through the bood/brain barrier and to: -Induce synthesis of NGF (Nerve Growth Factor) -Prevent nerve cell death -Promote myelination (re-growth of myelin sheath around nerve fibre)
-Stimulate neurite outgrowth (neurite - immature neuron in the growth process) -Exert neurotropic action and improve the myelination process in the mature myelinating fibres and not arouse a toxic effect or nerve cell damage. What does all this mean? Brain health; vibrancy of short-term memory and of related nerve functions!
Cordyceps sinesis is revered in China as a tonic par excellence for 'severe depletion and weakness’. Cordyceps is recommended for support of lungs, energy and stamina and sexual function. And nutritionally, to support the respiratory system - thus maintaining a healthy body particularly for those participating in demanding training routines.
We have a number of clients who take Cordyceps to help open bronchial airways and for liver function.
Crucial to longevity is Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) which is one of the most potent anti-oxidants found in the human body. In Agaricus Blazei the levels are nearly three times that found in either Coriolus or Cordcyeps, making it one of the most effective anti-ageing food supplements in existence.
And then there is it's potent immune boosting properties to consider - the beta-gloucans and aromatase inhibitors!
This is probably the most familiar mushroom of them all. It is known as the ‘Mushroom of Immortality’ and "Mushroom of Spiritual Potency". Widely used in the East as an anti-ageing and energy-promoting tonic. It also helps prevent high histamine levels.
A Multi-Mushroom supplement produced from three different species in equal parts - Reishi, Shiitake and Cordyceps. The most powerful mushrooms in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Helps maintain feelings of energy for today’s busy lifestyle.
Can help maintain immunity through the winter months without losing its potency. We now have hundreds of customers who take Triton throughout the cold and flu season!
As well as Coriolus, studies have shown that Maitake has Natural Killer (NK) Cell activity-promoting properties and to also have weight reducing properties.
An immune stimulant rather than an immune balancer, Maitake is better used for short term support, switching to another more balancing mushroom, such as Coriolus, after three months.
Oyster Mushroom contains among other things, a broad range of amino acids as well as vitamin B1, B2, B5, B6 and B7.
It has a huge and proven ability to reduce cholesterol, VLDL/LDL and triglycerides. It significantly reduces incidence of atherosclerotic plaques, thereby effectively preventing the development of atherosclerosis.
It does this by reducing cholesterol absorption and biosynthesis along with increasing catabolism (the metabolic breakdown of complex molecules into simpler ones, often resulting in a release of energy) and discharge of waste products.
