This is interesting. I knew mushrooms can benefit the immune system, but I didn't know they can act like aromatase inhibitors. This should be interesting for those who are struggling with aromatase inhibitors like Arimidex and Femara. I wonder if there has been more recent research about this?

It looks like there are still openings for participants, Elaine, so pass the word.... we won't find out if those who can access the trial don't participate.

Look is the Moss report newsletters: OCT. 2009 about supermarket mushrooms.
