3. Trametes Versicolor/ Turkey Tails Mushrooms

Turkey tails are common mushrooms that grow on dead logs. I believe they are among the most useful plants that can be used to treat cancer. They are particularly beneficial for people who have cancers of the gastrointestinal tract.

An extract of the mushroom has been used as a complement to conventional cancer treatment in Japan for over three decades. Most experts in Japan alternate the use of turkey tails with surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation treatments. I myself have used the herb simultaneously with chemotherapy.

Turkey tails mushrooms prevent metastasis of cancer cells, stopping the cancer from spreading via several mechanisms. In addition, turkey tails mushrooms improve the function of the immune system.

Experts believe that turkey tails have the potential to increase survival times significantly.
