Tri-Mushroom blend is a mix of our Organic Maitake, Organic Reishi, and Organic Shiitake mushrooms extracts. When these work together they have a mutual beneficial relationship, activating organs and modulating the immune system. By taking this extract, you get the benefits of all three mushrooms in one bottle. Shiitake mushrooms (Lentinula Edodes)
Reishi mushrooms have long been used by rural populations the world
over, and are now being viewed by even the scientific community as one
of the strongest immune-modulators known to man. It enhances immune
function by acting as a biological response modifier. Reishi has been
found to have a high number of Triterpenoids - steroid like
compounds that decrease allergenic reactions and histamines.4
These can lead to significant relief with those people suffereing from
bronchitis, asthma, and allergies, both food and air borne. Reishi
mushrooms have also been shown to reduce tumor growth,5 be a
strong anti-viral, and help decrease fatigue. Reishi mushrooms also
carry the compound lanostanic triterpenoid, which have anti-inflammatory
constituencies, and have been used in the treatment of arthritis.6 Also, a water extract of fruiting bodies of Reishi, induced free radical scavenging activity in the human body.7
Reishi mushroom tincture continues to be recommended in the health care
community for any one with a compromised immune system.

Shiitake mushrooms have been used for centuries to stimulate the human immune system, assisting us in our resistance to diseases. They have been the center of medicinal mushroom research since the 1960's. Shiitake's stimulate the human body to produce lymphocytes, macrophages and interferon, which are our internal infection fighting agents and liver fortifying. They are also proven anti-tumor agents in Shiitake, and they have long been used in the treatment of ovarian cysts as well as other kinds of cancer.1 Shiitake's are also known to have broad spectrum anti-bacterial properties and have been used to inhibit the over growth of Candida albicans; yeast overgrowth leading to bacterial vaginitus and other major stomach imbalances, as well as Streptococcus pyogenes(strept throat); Staphylococcus aureus, staph infections and Bacillus megaterium.2 Shiitakes have been proven to lower blood cholesterol as well as treat Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.3 They also contain high amounts of B6, B12, and D2. A steady suppy of B and D vitamins in ones diet helps to balance the nervous system, regulate emotions and sleeping patterns, and can increase sexual vigor.

Maitake mushrooms (Grifola frondosa)
Maitake
mushrooms have been proven to have extemely strong anti-tumor
constituents especially with breast, prostate and colorectal cancer.8 This mushroom has also been shown to redce blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes.9
As well it is an active immune-modulator for autoimmune diseases such
as psoriasis or chronic fatigue syndrome. Maitake mushrooms are also an
ally in the prevention of all types of cancer.10 It can also increase energy levels and overall vigor.
