Speaker: Donald Yance, CN, RH (AHG) The preparation, dosages, and active compounds of five mushrooms are covered in this presentation: Trametes versicolor (turkey tail), Ganoderma lucidum (reishi), Inonotus obliquus (Chaga), Cordyceps spp and Lentinula edodes (Shiitake mushroom). In Japan and China medicinal mushroom preparations have been safely used in cancer care for over 30 years, either alone or combined with chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. Drawing on long clinical experience, Donald Yance reviews the impact on patient survival, symptoms, pharmaceutical side effects, and quality of life for each of these fungi, in addition to published papers illustrating their effectiveness.
