Health with Coriolus versicolor mushroom

We have been hearing the phrase “Health is Wealth,” and it is very true. Humans are nothing without a well-functioning immune system, and medical sciences have been working for its betterment for thousands of years. Although the methods have changed these days immensely, compounds extracted from natural products are still in use. 

Coriolus Versicolor mushrooms are one such natural product. Their common name is Turkey Tail. It is found all over the world but is not included in any cuisine. Instead, this worldwide present mushroom finds its applications in medicine. It has been used for thousands of years in Asia for better immune health, and recent lab studies have shown it to be beneficial for cancer. Coriolus Versicolor is available in the market in the form of teas, capsules, and extracts.

Coriolus Versicolor extract has been used to treat Lung diseases in traditional Chinese medicine, and in Japan, it has been used to strengthen the immune system.

How it works: 

The polysaccharides extracted from Coriolus Versicolor were investigated. These polysaccharides show a macrophage stimulating effect, which was compared with Lipopolysaccharides. The polysaccharide obtained from the extract of Coriolus Versicolor showed 250% more effectiveness than the LPS. This way, Coriolus Versicolor extract was proved to be effective for the immune system scientifically.

  • For Cancer:

Cancer prevention studies were conducted with a hot water extract of Coriolus Versicolor mushroom in female Swiss mice. This extract was added to the diet that was fed to the animals. The mice were divided into three groups. They received the following treatment:

Group 1:

The first group of mice started receiving their dose at the age of 9 weeks. They received ten weekly subcutaneous injections with a ratio of 20micro/g body weight. The injection contained 1, 2-dimethylhydrazine dihydrochloride. 

Group 2:

In the second group, mice were given a 2% dose level starting at seven weeks. This dose was also followed by 1,2-dimethylhydrazine. 

Group 3:

Mice of group 3 also received a 1,2-dimethylhydrazine dose followed by a 2% dose level, and it started at the age of 21 weeks.

The number of animals with large intestinal tumors came out to be different in all three groups. The lowest range being in group 3. 

The extracts of Coriolus Versicolor are used as nutritional supplements for cancer patients in the U.S., especially in the Orient. 

The polysaccharopeptides and protein-bound polysaccharides produced by Coriolus Versicolor are efficient immunopotentiators, which is why it is used to supplement radiotherapy and chemotherapy for cancer patients and numerous other diseases. 

Extracts of Coriolus Versicolor are popular worldwide because of the presence of countless biologically active components. 

Coriolus Versicolor is termed as Yun Zhi in Chinese. For centuries, the Chinese have been using herbs along with conventional medical treatment. They believe it enhances the speed of recovery. In Asian cultures, various herbs are mixed with mushrooms and used for the treatment of different ailments. Mushrooms also find a huge role in strengthening the immune system.

The physiologic function of our immune system is to protect us from infections and subsequently eradicate existing infections. It is through this that we need to take careful consideration of our immune health by observing certain foods and dietary habits.

Coriolus versicolor

Coriolus versicolor is an extract obtained from mushrooms that offers benefits to the immune system. It is also referred to as the turkey tail mushroom and contains large amounts of Beta-glucans that stimulate the immune system. This is a protein-bound polysaccharide known as Polysaccharide-K (PSK) and once extracted from the mycelia of the mushroom, can be ingested alone in form of a capsule or tablet to boost the host’s immune system. Turkey tail mushroom also contains Polysaccharide-peptides (PSP) that stimulates the body to respond to infections or diseases.

Coriolus versicolor As An Immune Enhancer

Coriolus versicolor helps increase and activate natural killer cells. These help in protecting the patient from further tumorous growth and infected cells.

The Cancer Immunology and Immunotherapy journal reports on randomized blind trials using Coriolus versicolor conducted on 111 patients who had colorectal cancer. It showed an enhancement in the patients’ white blood cells. The white cells had the ability to scavenge for toxins and kill any pathogens. Coriolus has also been used as a helpful maintenance therapy post cancer surgery. Research also shows that Coriolus helps in protecting the immune system’s activity from being suppressed.

PRO-IMMUNE GOLD By Mushroom Remedy
