for everyone, interested in natural approaches to maintaining health and vitality – from therapists, pharmacists and science students to individuals looking for authoritative information on the effects

It is a richly informative and practically oriented publication that provides the reader with a clear explanation of the active principles of medicinal fungi and their use to support the immune system,
the functioning of the gastrointestinal and nervous systems, and maintaining internal balance.
Medicinal fungi such as Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi), Cordyceps (Caterpillar fungus),
Lentinula edodes (Shiitake), and Hericium erinaceus (Lion’s mane) has been used in traditional
cultures for centuries. Today, they are increasingly the subject of scientific research,
studying their bioactive compounds – mainly polysaccharides, triterpenes and other compounds.
The book provides an accessible but expertly informed overview of these fungi and explains why
they are becoming an important part of natural health support, even in modern Western medicine.
This book summarises the medicinal effects of 16 of the most well-known medicinal fungi species,
which have been proven in scientific and clinical studies, and their use in traditional medicine.

sporting animals is described. These include:
➡️ Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi)
➡️ Cordyceps (Caterpillar fungus)
➡️ Hericium erinaceus (Lion’s mane)
➡️ Lentinula edodes (Shiitake) and others
The focus is on the link between traditional wisdom and the results of modern research. It gives the reader an insight into how these fungi were used in the past and how they are studied by science today.
