The modest superfood: mushrooms

We live in a dangerous world. Period! Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are increasing, fungal infections are becoming more prevalent, so allergies and autoimmune diseases, etc. Add in toxins, heavy metals and environmental chemicals. We need a much stronger immune system compared to many years ago: our only effective weapon.

Mushrooms are very rich in beta-glucans, which stimulate macrophages, lymphocytes, T-cells and Natural Killer cells. They possess a particular affinity for immune cells: they not only boost but also modulate them. Training immune cells to respond appropriately to pathogens, toxins, cancerous cells.

Not enough?! They support cardiovascular health, reduce blood pressure, lower cholesterol, improve oxygenation, cognitive health, digestive wellness and much more….

Most important: they provide specific antioxidant support, neutralizing free radicals that damage DNA letting tumors to develop. And even more: they are natural detoxifiers, cleansing the body of accumulated waste, dead tissues, potential carcinogens, acting like “sponges” for toxic materials.

Hoping of giving useful hints.

…..Always humble,

Angiolino
