In this video, we’re going to talk about a powerful mushroom that has the potential to help fight off cancer cells and strengthen your immune system. This mushroom is called the turkey tail mushroom.

The turkey tail mushroom has an interesting shape and color that looks like the tail of a turkey.

This mushroom contains at least 35 compounds that directly relate to improving your immune system and fighting cancer cells, including:

• Quercetin - This compound helps release interferon. Interferon is a potent immune chemical that interferes with the production of viruses. It also helps kill cancer cells.

• Balcaleim - This compound has powerful anti-inflammatory properties. It also inhibits the spread of cancer cells, reduces the adhesion properties of tumors, and induces tumor cell cycle arrest.

• PSK/PSP - These are protein-bound carbohydrates that help increase monocytes, dendritic cells, macrophages, and immunity to toxins.

These compounds are commonly used alongside chemotherapy in Japan and China. Turkey tail mushrooms are potentially beneficial for fighting breast, blood, colon, lung, and stomach cancers.

If you are at risk for one of these forms of cancer, consider giving turkey tail mushrooms a try and let me know what you think in the comments below.
