Does anyone use this or have info on this type of supplement? I've done some internet research on this particular topic and have found very interesting information. It seems it's not too common here in the states but is routinely used for adjuvant treatment for CC in Japan and has been for many years.

I've actually purchased this supplement, but I haven't taken it yet - I want to talk to my oncologist first.

Just wondered if anyone out there knows anything about this mystery fungus?

Thanks!!
