Can I take Reishi mushroom if I have an autoimmune disease?
Reishi mushrooms seem to have so many medical advantages, and can even be used by cancer patients on chemotherapy.

Is it safe to take Lion's Mane with an autoimmune disease?
I've heard that taking herbal supplements while suffering from an autoimmune disease can actually worsen the condition. On the other hand, I see that Lion's Mane supplements tend to help with inflammation and give a boost to the immune system. It just seems to have so many health benefits, so I was wondering if anyone had any more information on Lion's Mane and autoimmune diseases. Asked 2 years ago

Does cooking Lion's Mane destroy the nutrients?
When I eat Lions Mane mushrooms, should I eat them raw or do I need to prepare them in a certain way? Apparently, mushrooms should be cooked to break down the chitin, but wouldn't that just destroy all of the nutrients in the mushroom? Can anyone recommend the best way to cook Lion's Mane if it does need to be prepared? Asked 2 years ago
