Wink When to change tracks? The talk

Kathy,
If you want to try Shitake and other mushrooms how about eating them in food rather than take expensive supplements? That way it is not considered a medicine.
I buy big bags of dried Shitake when they are on sale and buy the fresh ones when I can afford them. I soak the dried mushrooms in warm water before cooking with them. I also buy other things in food form that are considered medicinal like tumeric, ginger, garlic etc.
Maybe you can get some books on the subject at your local library or find some reliable internet resources on cancer and food.
Good luck on getting your doc to accept Tykerb as a vitamin. I hope you make it. Keep up the good work on the research etc.
