Checklist for therapy phases, laboratory values, medication Medicinal mushrooms (e.g. Reishi, Maitake, Trametes/Coriolus, Chaga) are often used in oncology as an accompanying measure - usually with the aim of supporting symptoms (e.g. appetite, sleep, exhaustion, general well-being). At the same time, as soon as cancer therapies, blood values and medication are involved, „harmless“ quickly becomesContinue reading

What does „NK cells up“ really mean clinically? Abstract Maitake extracts can measurably alter immune parameters, including NK cell markers. However, laboratory „up-shifts“ are not automatically clinically beneficial. We clarify: Number vs. activity, typical misconceptions, study situation and how to seriously classify findings. Why „NK cells up“ sounds so tempting - and is often misunderstood InContinue reading

There are sentences that don't just „sound good“, but feel like an inner chord that finally clicks. Your idea is one of them: Fulfillment occurs when three things come together: From a frequency therapy perspective, this can be wonderfully described as a state of coherence: When head, heart, body and actionContinue reading
