Regarding migraines, do you need to take a preventive maintenance dose or will the fungi help once you feel the migraines coming on?

Tokumitsu Okamura et al., "Characteristics of Wine Produced by Mushroom Fermentation," Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry 65/7 (July 2001), pp. 1596-1600.

Quote:

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the main microorganism used in wine brewing, because this microbe has potent ability to produce alcohol dehydrogenase. We have recently discovered that some genera of mushroom produced alcohol dehydrogenase, and made wine by using a mushroom in place of S. cerevisiae. The highest alcohol concentration in this wine was achieved with Pleurotus ostreatus (2.6 M, 12.2%). In the case of Agaricus blazei, the same alcohol concentration (1.7 M, 8%) was produced under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. This wine produced by A. blazei contained about 0.68% beta-D-glucan, which is known to have a preventive effects against cancer. The wine made by using Flammulina velutipes showed thrombosis-preventing activity, giving a prolonged thrombin clotting time 2.2-fold that of the control. Thus, the wine made by using mushroom seems to be a functional food which can be expected to have preventive effects against cancer and thrombosis.

Just chiming in about Chaga / Reishi. I was diagnosed 6 or 7 years ago with RA and was immediately put on dmards after NSAIDS didn't do anything to halt  my inflammation. The methotrexate (a chemo-therapy drug) was working to stop the inflammation but I was getting sick all the time...my resistance was very low and had bacterial infection after bacterial infection.
Anyway, I read on this site about the positive effects of some of the medicinal mushrooms on the immune system and narrowed my choices to reishi and chaga. I was able to find both mushrooms in the wild and made double extractions of each using forresters tek.





Wow, nothing in the world makes me happier than when someone has good results from these amazing mushrooms and was able to do it themselves using my 'tek' instead of paying out the ass what some places charge.  Congratulations for taking the "do it yourself" route, and on your success in general!  Keep spreading the knowledge!  :smile:  :thumbup:

Have some medicinal mushrooms and want to get the most out of them?  Try this double extraction method.

So I just harvested some wild Reishi in Ohio in late September. I want to make it into a tea but the mushroom is older. Has the dark maroon cap, turquoise rot, and dull brown spores. Is it still healthy to brew into a tea?

I started dosing 2 droppers full of each 3-4 times per day and went off the methotrexate. :





:thisisheavyman:

Holy crap!

I was diagnosed w psoriatic arthritis a few years ago. Looking back at my life I have had this damn disease much of my life and didn't realize it. Psoriatic arthritis has ended my physical career and I am bummed. I hate being on methotrexate! Much of the time the stuff makes me feel like I am motion sick and I am now unable to spend any sort of time in the sunlight. My whole life has changed.....

But I'm not a wallow in my sorrow kind of dude, I'm the get er done type so I have been here on the shroomery educating myself with the intentions of eventually opening up a myco restoration company or a myco medicinal company. Maybe both who knows.

Thank you for your testimony on your experience getting off of methotrexate.
Right now I'm on methotrexate + a whole bunch of drugs to deal with side affects along with a few other antirheumatic drugs.

Hoping to cut back on all these drugs since I began my gentler life.
With this info I may be cutting back on even more than I thought!

Again THANK YOU!
...Gonna show this to my Rheumy
