Can Chaga increase white and red blood cells in cancer patients?
I have just gone through radiation therapy but am not currently on any medication and am wanting something natural to help increase my red and white blood cell count. I have done some very basic research and have seen that Chaga can stimulate white blood cells, and therefore I'm wanting to get it as either a supplement or a tea. But is stimulating white blood cells the same as increasing them in cancer patients, and is this even possible? I haven't seen anything on Chaga and its effects on hemoglobin, however. Is it not something that Changa can help with? Asked 2 years ago

I suffer from an iron deficiency which often leaves me feeling very tired. I am looking for a natural remedy and have heard Reishi mushrooms could be the one I'm looking for. Apparently, mushrooms, in general, can increase your hemoglobin or red blood cell count which would help treat the symptoms of anemia that I experience, such as high levels of fatigue. Does this apply to Reishi mushrooms specifically? Asked 2 years ago

Are Lion's Mane mushroom tinctures effective?
I'm looking for the best medicinal mushroom supplement and have stumbled upon a big debate about the quality of different products. To be honest, I'm not even sure how possible it is to create a mushroom tincture and if it will be as effective as others, like CBD tinctures, for example. Do they make mushroom tinctures from fruiting body extracts or mycelium extracts? Also, Lion's Mane mushroom tinctures vs raw/dried fungus vs powdered extracts, which are more effective? Does the form of the medicinal mushroom even matter at all?Asked 2 years ago
