Q: What are the health benefits from taking
Agaricus Blazei Murill mushrooms and how does taking these mushrooms strengthen
my immune system?
A: Among the
nutritional products designed to enhance in-born immunity, mushroom-based
supplements have recently gained much attention. The use of mushroom for
medicinal uses has a long history, and its effectiveness is even noted in
ancient Chinese and Japanese documents.
At present, three types of anti-cancer drugs produced from
mushrooms are used as immunotherapy, one of therapies to help rid of cancer.
Immunotherapy is intended to fight against cancer by helping to strengthen the
immune system.
In 1965, Professor Synden at Pennsylvania State University and
Dr. Lambert of the Lambert Research Laboratory discovered the ingredients of
agaricus blazei murill mushrooms. In Japan, the anti-tumor properties of the
agaricus blazei murill mushrooms were presented by the Japanese Cancer
Association in 1980. Thereafter, the Japanese Cancer Association, Japan Society
for Agricultural Chemistry, the Japanese Pharmacological Society, the Food
Science Engineering Society of Japan, and representatives of various other
fields highlighted the role of agaricus blazei murill mushrooms in helping to
prevent the increase, spread and recurrence of cancer cells. What resulted was
the confirmation by researchers at such institutions as the University of Tokyo
Medical Department, the National Cancer Research Center, and the Tokyo College
of Pharmacy, of the anti-cancer effectiveness of agaricus blazei murill
mushrooms having four times that of Reishi, a popular mushroom long used for
aiding cancer prevention.
Thus, promoting the activation of the immune system is not only
to prevent the invasion of viruses and foreign matters into the body but also to
actively protect one's individual health even from the cancer.
In order to live a long and healthy life amid an ever-changing
environment, Noevir introduces
Agaricus
XP,
a nutritional supplement derived from the agaricus blazei murill mushroom, which
is known for its ability to help correct and strengthen the functions of the
immune system.
Disease-causing bacteria and viruses, polluted air, pollen,
harmful substances in food additives, and other harmful invaders constantly
surround our bodies. Our bodies come equipped with the ability to purge out the
invasion of such foreign invaders. Immunity refers to this defensive system that
the body contains. Lowered immunity makes the body more susceptible to the
invasion of foreign matters and thus, more susceptible to disease. It is easy to
catch a cold when physical exhaustion weakens the body because immunity levels
become lower with physical tiredness. Immunity lowers with age and dietary
changes (high-cholesterol and high-calorie diet, residues of agricultural
chemicals, food additives), environmental factors (air pollution, gas exhaust,
and electromagnetic waves), and stresses also help to destroy the necessary
balance for immunity. To maintain health and prevent the invasion of disease, it
is very important for our bodies to keep immunity at an effective level.
Immunity is a system that recognizes and removes alien substances
or substances foreign to our normal conditions. In addition to the fore
mentioned viruses and other "foreign invaders", three are also "inner invaders"
that the body gives birth to. Our bodies regularly carry out cell division but
during gene mutation can produce abnormal or cancer cells. Because cancer cells
are very similar to normal cells, it is difficult to recognize them. They easily
escape the immunity traps, and it takes time to determine whether the cancer
cells have caused disease. Cancer cells do not grow all of a sudden. Starting
with a single abnormal cell, it multiplies and takes years until cancer can be
detected in an individual. There is always a possibility of cancer cell
production every time cell division takes place, but having a normal level of
immunity can suppress the increase and spread of cancer cells by destroying them
as soon as they are produced. Among the current cancer treatments,
immunotherapy, which strengthens the natural immunity functions of our bodies to
fight against cancer cells together with other treatments, has shown to be very
effective.
Recently, the occurrence of allergic symptoms described as atopic
skin rashes, pollen-induced allergies, and asthma has gained much awareness.
Allergies occur when a mistaken functioning of the immune system unnecessarily
attacks pollen, dust, or its own cells by recognizing them as foreign matters.
In the case of AIDS virus, the body becomes unable to defend the body from even
slight illnesses that do not normally cause death, since the virus breaks down
cells of the immune system. In this manner, diseases that occur from the
improper functioning of the immune system are currently on the rise.
Noevir's
Agaricus
XP
is grown in Taiwan which has the most ideal temperature, humidity and soil for
quality harvest. No agricultural chemicals are used. Noevir has super extraction
technology which yields high concentration of effective ingredients. Noevir
Agaricus activates and strengthens the immune system. Polysaccharide Protein
Compounds in Agaricus activate macrophage and killer T cells and is highly
absorbable. One packet which contains 135 mg is equivalent to 9 pieces of dry
agaricus blazei murill mushroom. 540 pieces or 3.6 lb. (1620 g) of dry agaricus
is contained in each box.
Noevir Agaricus easily dissolves in water to drink. Our original
extracting technology extracts and granulates the agaricus essence so that it
can be ready with little trouble in no time.
Can be served hot or cold. Strong or mild with the adjustment of
water amount. You can add sugar or honey. Can be used as mushroom stock for
cooking.
Recommended Usage: Take 1 to 2 packets a day for 60 days (Two
months required to build up immune system). If taking 2 a day, take 1 in the
morning and 1 in the afternoon (divide for better absorption). Take at least 1
box per year for a healthy person (those who have reasons for having lowered
immune system should take two boxes or more. Example: Jan-Feb and Jul-Aug)
