Mushrooms feed your good gut bacteria, which powers up your immune system to fight cancer naturally.
Top Mushroom Picks
- Shiitake — even the stem is medicinal; cook at low heat and drink the broth
- Oyster mushrooms — so powerful they were used to clean radioactivity in Japan
- Wild varieties — contain more polyphenols than store-bought mushrooms
What Mushrooms Do for You
- Feed beneficial gut bacteria
- Strengthen the immune system
- Block cancer cell reproduction

Important Cooking Tip
