Host Defense Turkey Tail

The liver is responsible for detoxification of harmful chemicals in our environment and food and for responding to a wide range of biological challenges such as parasites, microbes and viruses. It manufactures key compounds such as cholesterol and glutathione. And it is under great stress and challenge today. For thousands of years, traditional medicine has turned to specific healing mushrooms to promote the normal functioning of the liver in its all-important tasks. Host Defense Turkey Tail brings features Trametes versicolor.

Host Defense mushrooms from Paul Stamets deliver the profoundly healing traditional mushrooms in their organic mycelial form, easiest to digest and richest in potent myconutrients.

Predominant in woodlands throughout the world, Turkey Tail (Trametes versicolor) is one of the best-documented mushrooms in medical research. With a wide spectrum of beneficial properties, Turkey Tail shows much promise in supporting the immune system with its protein-bound and unique polysaccharides, and in supporting liver function. Each capsule contains 500 mg of freeze-dried Turkey Tail mycelium.

Organic Mushrooms from Paul Stamets are the finest traditional mushrooms grown anywhere in the world and are the only commercially available mushrooms with a Certified P-Value. P-Value is a scientific term for the genetic integrity of the mushroom. When Paul Stamets, one of the world's leading mushroom experts, selects a mushroom from the rainforest he cultures it in rigorously controlled conditions in his laboratories. The growing mushroom mycelium is absolutely genetically identical with the rainforest mushroom that gave it birth, carrying all of its genetic energy and healing force. Mushrooms not grown in such a rigorous potency-assured manner may be hundreds of generations distant from the purity of their genetic heritage and thus suffer genetic degeneration and a lack of vitality.
