Medical mushroom extracts not only for cancer
Alzheimer, schizophrenia, autism: behaviour problems, new therapeutic possibilities
The anticancer medical mushroom polysaccharide extracts (e.g. Patkónyelv) have already proved that they are odd among the natural immune strengthening and anticancer agents in improving the quality of life, in the decreasing of the side effects of the chemo-and radiotherapy and also in supporting the therapy’s effectiveness.
In a short period of time oncologists observed many unusual tumour regressions with the ‘Patkónyelv’ extract mixture. The special medical mushroom extracts’ (e.g. Kígyószál extract) effects on the central nervous system and the prevention of diabetes are also remarkable. It was proved in animal experiments that the Kígyószál extract has a hindering effect of the neurotoxin harmful substances piling up in the brain, causing Alzheimer disease. Medical mushroom extracts’ (Lepkefű) decreasing effect on the serious side effects (metabolic syndrome, diabetes, stroke and heart attack) of the medications (mainly atypical antipsychotics) used to lessen the traditional behaviour problems is also remarkable. In the case of Alzheimer disease, schizophrenia or other serious mental illnesses (e.g. autism) the patients go to psychiatric hospital or to other institutional care due to their unmanageable behavioural problems. Tearing out the patients from their family habitual environment can lead to deterioration.
Frequent behavioural problems are for example physical or verbal aggression, shouting, resistance against the carers and distrust. In these cases the first step is to bring to light with the help of doctors if the behaviour problems have physical causes. Unnoticeable physical pain such as toothache, urinary inflammation, broken bones, excessive taking of medications can also occur. If neither pain nor medications lead to results, the adherents try to lessen the behaviour problems with the help of doctors and medications (mainly atypical antipsychotics) in order to make them able to stay in family circle. Medications are often effective but their medications are also remarkable. They can cause stroke, diabetes, high cholesterol and triglyceride level, hypertension and cardiovascular problems and can also foster the immersion of the original nervous system’s damage.
Certain clinical studies state that the harmful effects offset the beneficial effects of the atypical antipsychotics. They can deaden the insulin sensitivity too so they can contribute to further damage in the long term. Diabetes can be a risk factor of the formation of cancer diseases and also Alzheimer disease.
Diabetes occurs more often than other mental diseases, such as schizophrenia, bipolar depression, depression, as the taking of antipsychotics can exasperate so they can contribute to early death. Diabetes also increases the risk of Parkinson’s disease. With the special medical mushroom polysaccharide extracts (Lepkefű and Kígyószál, Petrencegomba) the side effects of atypical antipsychotics can be decreased as with it the organism’s insulin sensitivity can be increased. According to experiment results with some of them the brain cells’ degenerative damage can be slowed down (Kígyószál extract) without side effects. According to the newest experiment results researchers suggest the insulin sensitivity decreasing medications’ testing and application to Alzheimer disease as in the case of this disease the brain cells’ insulin sensitivity damaged. Researchers suggest renaming Alzheimer disease to diabetes type 3 or brain diabetes, referring to its insulin signalling errors. In clinical experiments increasing of the amount of insulin resulted in significant state of improvement in the case of half of the patients. While these medications can cause side effects the medical mushroom extracts’ side effects are negligible or even nonexistent.
While the insulin sensitivity increasing medications’ effects on Alzheimer disease are experimented, the insulin sensitivity increasing medical mushroom extracts are reliable and extend a side effect free alternative to the protection of brain cells, they can decrease the side effects of atypical antipsychotics and later may complete the usage of insulin sensitivity increasing medications. It’s remarkable that in the case of children (e.g. autistics struggling with serious behaviour problems) the diabetes’ probability increasing side effects of the antipsychotics are more significant than in the case of adults. Medical mushroom extracts (Lepkefű, Kígyószál, Petrencegomba) hinder the process of the formation of diabetes, can decrease high cholesterol and triglyceride level and can strengthen the immune system effectively. Medical mushroom extracts don’t replace but complete the frequent physical exercises and a healthy diet rich in fruit and vegetables which also contribute to the prevention of diabetes and to the slowing down of brain damage.
