(NaturalNews) Reishi mushrooms have been valued in the East for thousands of years due to the benefits they can bring to human health. Low immunity levels can make people vulnerable, not only to things like viral or bacterial infections, but also to serious conditions like cancer, since the body is unable to recognize and eliminate cancer cells in the early stages of their development, before they can become established in the body and proliferate.

Reishi mushrooms work within the body in a number of ways, not only to help strengthen the body's own natural defenses, but also against specific cancer cells themselves to keep people healthy and to reduce or eliminate cancer at its onset. Read on to find out more about this amazing mushroom.

Helps treats inflammatory breast cancer

Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a very difficult form of cancer to deal with because it is pervasive and likely to spread to other parts of the body. Reishi mushrooms can improve this condition because they have an inhibitory effect on the reproduction of the cancer cells and also because they have powerful anti-inflammatory properties.

Prevents secondary infections

Cancer patients not only have to deal with the immediate problems of their disease, but also with the fact that, because their immune system is weakened, they are also vulnerable to secondary infections from bacteria, viruses, fungi and other pathogens. Reishi mushrooms help prevent these issues by strengthening the body's immune response.

Modulates the immune system

Reishi mushrooms have been proven to have immunomodulatory effects: Active compounds in these mushrooms can not only break down the fibrogen in the outer, protective layer of cancer cells and make them more easily eliminated but also help amplify the activity of the natural killer cells, the body's way of fighting against pathogens directly.

Effective for ovarian cancer

In one study to research the effect of reishi mushrooms on ovarian cancer, scientists discovered that active components of the mushrooms were able to slow down the growth of tumors and cancer cells but also did not harm surrounding healthy cells and tissues. The idea of killing off cancer cells while protecting healthy ones remains a constant challenge for conventional cancer treatment.

Supports cancer cell death

Cells of all kinds or programmed to die, a process known as apotosis; the problem with cancer cells, however, is that they do not undergo this death and keep reproducing endlessly, forming tumors and spreading to other parts of the body. However, extract of reishi mushrooms have been shown to induce apotosis in cancer cells to help stop their spread.

So here, in a nutshell, is a summary of the many health benefits that reishi mushrooms bring to the table. Because of these benefits, reishi mushrooms not just are good at combating cancer but truly can bring improvements to nearly all aspects of general health.
