What single drug can benefit you by: 

1) supporting and strengthening your immune system
2) providing anti-inflammatory properties
3) providing anti-oxidant properties
4) restricting blood vessel growth feeding tumors ("anti-angiogenesis")
5) causing programmed cell death of cancer cells ("apoptosis")
6) providing antiviral effects
7) restricting the growth of pathogenic bacteria
8) assisting conventional anti-cancer drugs to work more effectively at lower doses

 

Mushrooms provide all these benefits, and they are not drugs. These are 'functional foods' and/or 'dietary ingredients,' which help support the immune system on a fundamental, multi-factorial level. Nature is a numbers game. We need all the support we can get as our immune systems and health are under assault from pollution, stress, contaminated food and age-related diseases as our lifespans increase.
