10. Cancer support with Medical mushrooms
Mushrooms have the ability to stimulate the immune system, modulate humoral and cellular immunity and potentiate antimutagenic and antitumorigenic activity, as well as rejuvenating the immune system weakened by radiotherapy/chemotherapy in cancer treatment. This qualifies them as candidates for immunomodulation and immunotherapy in cancer and treatment of other diseases. (Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine Volume 2018, Article ID 7271509) Actions Improve immune defence against tumour cells (CD4, CD8, NK cells) Reduce inflammation Improve tolerance to medical treatments and/or decrease adverse side-effects of such Increase capacity for physical activity and energy Promote a positive emotional state
