Avatar f tn Years ago, my study nurse at Mayo Clinic, told me about some studies suggesting that Shitake mushrooms can help to stabilize(possible raise) that white blood cells. At that time, I was in a study that did not allow rescue drugs and my white blood cells were falling. So, I did as she suggested. I went out and bought the Shitake mushrooms. You need to wash them very thoroughly, (but be gentle because they like to fall apart on you if you get too carried away!
Avatar m tn The shitake and maitake mushrooms are well known to improve immunity against hbv, including some hbsag lowering. The effect is mediated by cytokines, as expected.
Avatar m tn The feline cancer diet consists of 75% meat or fish gently cooked (just seared on the outside) in olive oil and chopped garlic. In a seperate pan saute mushrooms (shitake, maitake, portabello) and broccoli in olive oil, than chop the meat and vegetables very fine. Mix the meat and a small amount of the vegetable/mushroom combo together and after cooling to just warmer than room temperature give to your cat. You also need a vitamin/mineral supplement if you are only feeding a home-made diet.
Avatar f tn I accidentally ate some raw mushrooms because I was craving them...I ate like 3 thwn realized this may be a bad idea! Should I be worried! I hope my litte baby is okay.
Avatar f tn Looks delicious! Used to love meat but now I know too much about it's production... Shitake mushrooms would make a nice and beneficial replacement. Thanks for the reminder of how great tumeric is for us.
Avatar m tn anyway there are many drugs close to approval so it would be best using antivirals entecavir or taf, these dont clear hbv but stop replication and liver damage
Avatar m tn Hi, just after eating a single raw shiitake rehydratated mushroom while slicing the others for cooking, I developed the day after a mild, I presume, episode of shiitake dermatitis. Rash, itching, red bumpings on trunk and legs. No other symptoms.I hope and presume that in a week the symptoms will vanish. . Medical articles related to shiitake toxicity, supposedly based on secretion of interleukin-1 and other inflammatory cytokines , say that there is not mucous membrane (oral? )involvment.

Avatar f tn MGN-3 is treated with polysaccharides (which is basically complex sugar typically found in mushrooms and rice bran). In-fact, that's what is used to 'make' MGN-3. polysaccharides stimulate NK cell activity (immunity, cancer fighting, etc) typically due ot beta glucans (which is part of how the whole polysaccharides thing works). I can't steer you towards or away from MGN-3, it just sounds like yet another 'thing' to do.
Avatar f tn t seem to get enough D, maybe it would be worthwhile to munch a few mushrooms - cook them, marinate them (oil will add calories), just eat them raw in salads, etc.
Avatar f tn You also need to make sure you get your proteins and fats (You need some sort of fat in your diet)- beans, nuts, cheeses, mushrooms, meats, avocado, etc. You can get most of what you need through veggies but just eating veggies isn't enough. Also, are these veggies raw, cooked, canned frozen? That really changes their values and their ability to keep you healthy. Just keep all of that in mind.
Avatar f tn Maybe too much coffee, yerba maté and mushrooms? I’m fasting and I hope that helps. Any ideas what it might be? I don’t feel heartburn and it makes no difference whether I am eating food or starving. I can swallow and get food down with no problem. When my stomach growls it feels good/like slight relief. Maybe a tumor is growing in my esophagus? Perhaps at the sphincter at the top of my stomach? Feels like my stomach can’t growl and my throat can’t release a burp.
Avatar f tn what kind of mushrooms, I'm using again Muril with beta glucans
Avatar f tn However, infections have been reported from all coastal areas in the United States. This infection can be acquired by eating raw or poorly cooked seafood (raw oysters, sushi) or by going in sea water with open skin sores. In patients with cirrhosis this infection can be lethal. Patients with cirrhosis should not eat raw seafood and should abstain from going in the ocean if open sores are present.
Avatar n tn Starting a year ago, I noticed that my throat began hurting about 5-10 minutes after eating mushrooms, and hurt intermittently after eating the mushrooms (baby portabella mushrooms). I didn't know what to make of this until I looked-up allergic reactions to mushrooms this evening, and read some pretty frightening stories about the subject, so I thought I'd ask if I'm experiencing an allergic reaction. Like I said, my throat began hurting, and I also noticed my saliva is really thick.
Avatar f tn Do any of you ladies, notice your eating more? I feel like I am always eating. I am having trouble because I am a big health freak and I am running out of food ideas.

Add beans or lentils. I also love marinating a flank steak, grilling it, and slicing it thinly and putting it in the salad. Fresh herbs at variety too.

Avatar f tn greatly benefits the most from the maitake mushrooms but not as much from the shitake mushrooms. In fact, the maitake is right there at the top of the list for people with blood type "O". I have also noticed that fresh maitake mushrooms are much more available in the produce section of my favorite natural grocery store and are more affordable than they used to be. So, applying these useful tips to your own blood type will enhance your immune system immensely.
