I have been ill for 1 year , with what seems to be chronic Epstein Barr and Cytomegalo causing symptoms similar to chronic fatigue syndrome .
I have searched many herbs but what took my attention was Medicinal Mushrooms . After long researches reading about the strong antiviral effects of mushrooms in treating and even curing various viral infections , I was convinced with them .
I kept reading about mushroom supplements and companies and one by one I started to understand that not only one thing can judge the quality of a mushroom supplement .The medicinal effect depends on : Cultivation medium ( wood logs , substrates , deep layer fermented cultivation ) , Part of mushroom extracted ( eg Reishi better to be extracted from fruitbodies while Coriolus from mycelium ) , Extracted or not , Methods of extraction and much more .
So I did not trust all mushroom companies which I found that they have a defect in at least one thing .
Until I discovered Oriveda , It looks like the perfect mushroom company ! oh yeah that is what I have been looking for , everything perfect reishi grown on wood , hot water , ethanol extracted and they list everything on supplements fact label !
Note : GNC the famous supplements company was found to have fake supplement facts label which did not contain any herb of what was listed on their supplements fact labels ! It is illegal of course to put false information on supplement facts label and you should trust the supplement facts label but without strict governmental supervision the companies put false information !
And that was the case with Oriveda ! to make things short
I started Reishi on September 2015 with 4 capsules per day as this woman who runs the whole business ” syds ” recommended . On the second day I felt spaced out and lacking concentration and brain fogged , I said to myself it might be the sugar lowering effects or detoxing effects . This spacing out can remain for 2-3 hours before it resolves . after 12 days ( still zero improvement in any thing ) I added Psp with 3 caps / day . So I was taking reishi 4 caps + psp 3 caps .
I took both for another 3 days and on the 3rd day I had a massive spacing out and brain fogging like I was in another world .
I could not concentrate or do anything ! and it did not resolve after 3-4 hrs ! It just remained for the next day . On the next day I was kind of better so I took only 2 reishi to see whats going to happen and after a while again I am feeling spaced out and then I had a big headache which lasts till the moment I am writing this right now ! I don’t think they are even mushrooms ! Mushrooms Can’t have these side effects , Mushrooms nourish the blood , immune , energy and makes you more calm and not stressed but not make you toxicated .
I am planning to analyze the capsules for toxic substances in a laboratory .
Those people write everything perfect about mushroom research and show the lies of other companies so that they cover their own BIG MASSIVE LIE !!
