Title: Medicinal Mushrooms? Possible addition
Post by: dom62 on December 05, 2018, 09:26:27 PM
Has anyone experimented with medicinal mushrooms such as Reishi, Chaga, Lion's Mane, Shiitake, Maitake, Artist's Conk, Turkey Tail??? I found a tincture online including all 7bof these. It seems like a very powerful idea based on how mushrooms are the scavengers and replenishers of the forest. They have super anti oxident properties and radical effects on dna protection. Even claims of cancer reversal specifically with reishi..

Im just curious if anyone has looked into or tried this?

I am going to pick up a bottle of tincture and some dried versions and start incorporating it frequently into my diet and let you all know what i think.

Interested to see your results but unfortunately a bit doubtful.... I had an uncle who was taking a concoction of stuff like that (not sure if it included the mushrooms), had no effect on his stomach cancer and he later passed away. Only thing it did was give him more energy.

I could be wrong and it may be beneficial - i'm hoping it is - just some things can be too good to be true.

There have been some people who have miraculously been cured as well and used a mixture of herbal remedies along with VED, traction, stretching etc. So there is always hope.

Keep us updated.

Hey Dom,

Never tried, but already thought of it; yes, please try taking some and progressively increasing the doses to see how it goes after a few weeks; I'll be happy to read your report :-)!

Hey everyone, nothing but positive results so far and its only been a week.

If you are the type who meditates and is in tune with your body medicnal mushroom tincture i got a hold of is working wonders in so many different ways. Remember Intention and though produce emotion, E-motion is energy in motion. The first step to recovery is to change thought patterns which in turn will alter emotions and hence physical healing occurs... Enough on the ranting..

Results not even a week in - scars on hands from roofing and mechanics work where i busted knuckles open seem to be flaking off and getting smaller.

- I've been able to control "flare up" to a much better extent. Pretty much no inflammation. (Much inflamation is due to inflammed thought patters CALM THAT MIND)

-I feel the protection of the mushrooms. When i drop the tincture under the tounge i get flushed with a warming calm sensation.

A good thing to do with ANYTHING you are putting into your body is hold it in both hands against your chest at heart level. Close your eyes. If your body naturally rocks forward then it is something your body is willing to accept. If your body naturally rocks backward, most likely it isnt something your body wants to take. My body doesnt want the remedies found here i.e carnitine and ubiquinol, i actually found better results when i stopped taking them.

Just for info purposes my current regemin is

Tincture of - cleavers, octillo, and propolis.

Nascent iodine

Mushroom Alchemy Tincture

Horse chestnut extract pill form

Tumeric curcumin pill

MSM

Pine pollen tincture

Food source of vitamin E - wheat germ oil

Omega 3 and ALA supplement or flax and chia seeds are best

I try to go natural as possible and only take things according to if my body will accept it with the previously stated way of asking my body.. I always ask the supplements i take to fully and completly do the healing i intend for them to do. Dont just blindly take pills, its better to set intention with every single one. Think of them as your little buddies. Lol.

I ranted a lot i know but i feel like this is all valuable info. Not everything is to a medical science.

Dom. I like this post, keep it up. Do you genuinely believe that the "inflamed thought patterns" has a direct effects on actual inflammation ? This is something I haven't been able to accomplish, completely gridding myself of the negative thoughts, always trying to be conscious of if there's pain or not on a given day. Sometimes even kegeling to get a feel of the pain

Patriot, "inflamed thought patterns" = stress = cortisol = increased bodily inflammation. So this is technically correct.

JS, you are right. Some days are more tough than others mentally, usually when I get sexual desires and I know if I act on them I will put myself in pain. Stressful days. Maybe I should meditate more or find some sort of way to mediate the sexual desires away. I am only 18 and these desires are very strong at times

you can try yourself ( you can consume mushrooms on keto) also it is mushroom powder you need 2x500mg per day for 168 days it costs around 18 dollars in europe(the hole 6 month supply) for organic reishi powder.I am planning to attack this with everything i learned so far in a combination of things topical and systemic(emu oil,freo,boswelia,white tea,IF clean eating,). so far have seen improvement with a combo of white tea and curcumin,since yesterday i added reishi powder and boswellia serata extract next week i will add a topical

Thanks bro, I might look into where I can get this here in Australia.

What were the improvements you've seen ?

I'm seeing some improvement with pentox, VED, traction and heat therapy but very minimal. It's like a 1% improvement each week.
