Turkey Tail Mushroom Extract 120ml

DETAILS

The Turkey Tail mushroom - known scientifically as Trametes versicolor, formerly as Coriolus versicolor - may be one of the most underrated mushrooms, but is nevertheless one of the most special. A mushroom named for its distinctly colourful, autumn-like palette of stripes that closely resemble the plume of feathers on a turkey, it is found predominantly in temperate forests; Life Cykel’s Turkey Tail is sourced from the Blue Mountains. Beyond its ability to feed the beneficial bacteria in your gut, stimulate the immune system and prevent infections, prevent inflammation, and combat cancer cells, Turkey Tail has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years to treat lung conditions, and is even approved in Japan as an immune-boosting supplement for cancer patients.

Nicknamed “The Gut Health Mushroom”, Turkey Tail is particularly potent when used to soothe the gut. Find balance and purity in your gut, and honour your body. Take it before/after a meal to aid in digestion, or when you're feeling bloated and full. Happy gut, happy life!

BENEFITS

• Infused with Australian native Kakadu Plum - high antioxidant profile; highest vitamin C content gram for gram than any other fruit in the world
• Feeds the beneficial bacteria in your gut - contains polysaccharides, which act as prebiotics in the digestive system; these support the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut microbiome, such as acidophilus (which is used to treat digestive disorders) and bifidobacterium (which colonise the digestive tract and boost overall immunity), thereby promoting better gut health overall, a stronger immune system, and a reduced risk of developing gastrointestinal/digestive problems
• Immune boosting and antiviral; anti-cancer - modulates the immune system, helps to prevent infections, illness, and disease; Turkey Tail contains two key polysaccharides:

Polysaccharide-K (also called krestin, or PSK) - an immunostimulant that has been commonly used in conjunction with chemotherapy since the 1970s

Polysaccharide peptides (PSP) — studies have suggested these could be used as anti-tumour drugs, because they function as biological response modulators (BRM) - meaning, they enhance the body’s utilisation of macrophages (a type of white blood cell that engulfs and digests pathogens like cancer cells) and T-lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell that plays a key role in the adaptive immune response, helping the body to combat infection and disease); PSP also helps repair immune cell damage caused by chemotherapy, and restore and strengthen the immune system; the PSP in Turkey Tail may extend the life expectancy of cancer patients who supplement with it alongside standard treatments like chemotherapy

• Supports cognitive health, anti-ageing - Turkey Tail mushroom extract is high in antioxidants and contains several inflammatory properties, which together fight the free radicals that can lead to oxidative stress, ageing and chronic disease
• Contains beta-glucans - plant sterols that act as precursors to hormones in our bodies; anti-cancer by way of blocking the growth and spread of cancer cells and increasing the immune system activity; anti-ageing
