Why is there so much excitment about medicinal mushrooms?
Medicinal mushrooms have been treasured and praised for thousands of years in the Orient, where they are listed among the best medicines available. Medical researchers are now confirming many medical benefits of mushrooms, especially in the areas of immune enhancement and general good health. Mushrooms have been intensively studied as antitumor agents. They contain many substances which are antioxidants, protecting the body from toxins, mutagens, and free radicals, and specifically protecting the liver from injury. Mushroooms also appear to influence heart and artery disease by regularizing blood pressure.

Mushrooms contain many substances which support good health. Species contain alkaloids, nucleotides, proteins, triterpenes, polysaccharides and unsaturated fatty acids which have positive health effects. The surprisingly rich blend of polysaccharides contained in specific muhsrooms have received a lot of scientific attention in the past few years. The ability of polysaccharides to stimulate the human immune system has been established beyond question. Different polysaccharides appear to support different elements of the immune response. The result is that mushrooms, especially in combinations, can have broad and impressive effect on human health.

Harriet Beinfield, a noted expert on Chinese medicine once wrote:

These fungi survive and thrive upon the decay of the forest floor through their dual power of self-protection and self-transformation. Over millions of years, mushrooms have successfully adapted to an environment replete with threatening microbial agents by developing natural substances that prevent bacteria and viruses from replicating inside their cells. Unlike other plants that, dazzling green with chlorophyll, synthesize nutrients from the radiant sun, the crimson, tawny, and inky mushrooms flourish by a different mechanism.

While plants absorb carbon dioxide and liberate oxygen, mushrooms mimic human respiration by captivating oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide. In keeping with forest ecology, plants then reuse this carbon dioxide to manufacture their food. By discharging enzymes into the matter upon which they feed, fungi break down complex carbohydrates and proteins into simpler compounds. This process of decomposition enriches the soil and makes essential substances available to plants in a form they can absorb. But unlike humans who need light and fresh food, mushrooms feed on moist decaying organic matter in deep shade - they are the grand recyclers.

Within the body, a few medicinal mushrooms seem to be able to transmute metabolic waste and neutralize toxic accumulations without provoking eliminative catharsis as a consequence. They are a safe and effective medicament that has been valued over thousands of years of human civilization.
