Wild Chaga and medicinal benefits of mushroom (Inonotus Obliquus)

 

Chaga is a mushroom that typically grows on birch trees in colder climates across the Northern Hemisphere. At first glance, the mushroom doesn’t look very appealing; actually, it doesn’t even looks like a mushroom at all! Appearances can be deceiving, however, as this special mushroom packs a punch when it comes to its health value. Most of the medical research on Chaga, has been done in Russia where the mushroom grows in abundance, as it prefers cold climate forests.

Reishi and medicinal benefits of wild mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum)

 

The lingzhi mushroom or reishi mushroom is a species complex that encompasses several fungal species of the genus Ganoderma, most commonly the closely related species Ganoderma lucidum, Ganoderma tsugae, and Ganoderma lingzhi. G. lingzhi enjoys special veneration in East Asia, where it has been used as a medicinal mushroom in traditional Chinese medicine for more than 2,000 years, making it one of the oldest mushrooms known to have been used medicinally. Reishi ia a polypore 

mushroom that is soft (when fresh), corky, and flat, with a conspicuous red-varnished, kidney-shaped cap and, depending on specimen age, white to dull brown pores underneath. It lacks  gills on its underside and releases its spores through fine pores, leading to its morphological classification as a polypore.

 

Known as the "mushroom of immortality," Reishi is a renowned adaptogen and powerful medicinal mushroom that offers; Immune regulation, balancing immune system activity, bolstering it when weakened and calming it when overstimulated. Anti-cancer effects; activates natural killer cells, reduces tumor growth, and lowers the risk of metastasis. Proven effective as an adjunct therapy for cancers like breast and prostate. Alleviates fatigue, supports cardiovascular health, and enhances energy levels. 

Reishi mushrooms are a cornerstone of integrative therapies for cancer, immune disorders, and chronic fatigue that provide essential immuno-modulator properities; 

• Reishi mushrooms (Ganoderma lucidum) regulate the immune system, boosting its activity when weakened and calming it when overstimulated
• Increases the number of active immune cells, supporting overall immune health
• Activates natural killer cells to fight tumors and reduces the risk of metastasis (cancer spreading)
• Effective as an adjunct therapy for breast cancer, prostate cancer, hepatitis, and fatigue syndrome
• Has strong antioxidative effects, reducing oxidative stress in the body
• Helps reduce fatigue and supports cardiovascular health

Turkey tail and medicinal benefits of wild mushroom (Trametes versicolor)

 

Turkey tail, the Latin name is Trametes versicolor, which means thin (trametes) and many colored (versicolor). In Chinese medicine it is referred to as yun zhi, and the Japanese name is kawaratake. 

The turkey tail is a polypore mushroom, meaning they release spores through many small holes underneath their caps. Many medicinal mushrooms are polypores. Like so many polypores, these mushrooms are also bracket fungi. They produce fruiting bodies that are shaped like shelves or brackets. These brackets are grouped closely together either horizontally or one on top of another. They are saprotrophs, which means they feed on decaying matter of other living things. This is why you always find them on old, rotting logs. To spot a turkey tail, it's best to look down. You'll usually find them on decaying hardwood or at the base of trees. For other identifying characteristics, know that they have no stem, groups of thin caps with concentric zones of varying colors, and a spore print that ranges from whitish to yellowish.  They're found in forests all over the world from Europe to Asia to the US and Russia.

 

The turkey tail is not a gourmet mushroom. You won't see them on a five star menu sauteed with wild leeks.

Turkey tail mushrooms (Trametes versicolor) are primarily valued for their potent medicinal properties, particularly their immune-boosting effects;

• Rich in polysaccharide K (PSK), which boosts the immune system, suppresses tumor growth, and prevents cancer-causing gene expression
• Stimulates the production of immune cells to attack infections and foreign cells
• Effective against viral infections like herpes and hepatitis
• Inhibits tumor growth, prevents new tumors, and reduces chemotherapy and radiation side effects
• Significant studies, such as those by Bastyr University and NIH, continue to explore its benefits, particularly in cancer therapies like prostate cancer

These medicinal mushrooms are nature’s remedy for a balanced, resilient, and healthy life. Consistent use can unlock their full potential, helping the body and mind thrive in the face of modern challenges.
