Turkey tail mushrooms have many benefits including immune system support and gastrointestinal support. It is a great way to improve overall health.
Turkey Tail contains polysaccharide peptide (PSP) and polysaccharide krestin (PSK). PSPs have been shown in animal and human studies to support healthy immune function at the cellular level. Both PSP and PSK have the ability to modulate inflammation, immunity, and hematopoiesis (the formation of blood cells).
They strengthen macrophages, a type of white blood cell that ingests foreign material and debris within the body. Such a function may have the potential for treating cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple sclerosis, and other conditions associated with immune compromise.
PSPs enhance the immune system by stimulating cytokine synthesis. Cytokines are small proteins that regulate immune function and communicate between cells during an immune response - which is useful in conditions such as common cold and flu, upper respiratory tract infections and gastric ulcers. It also contains an anti-ulcer compound that inhibits gastric secretion and acid formation (which can cause discomforts such as heartburn and indigestion), as well as antioxidant activity for helping prevent cancer.
Turkey tail supports the lungs by reducing inflammation and fluid accumulation. It may help decrease coughing, shortness of breath, and airway spasms. Studies show it to be effective for bronchitis and other respiratory conditions. Turkey Tail also helps to prevent excessive production of histamine so that the immune system doesn't overreact to foreign invaders.
In recent years, a growing body of research suggests that Turkey Tail may be beneficial in supporting the immune system to strengthen the body's first line of defence against a host of modern ailments.
