Medicinal Mushrooms - Natural Healing Power with Tradition - Rediscovered - Revised New Edition

The current state of knowledge in one book:

Medicinal mushrooms are among the oldest natural remedies and have established themselves as an important element of holistic therapy for many doctors and alternative practitioners. Thanks to their ingredients and mechanisms of action, they can stimulate the human organism's self-regulation and activate self-healing powers. This has been demonstrated in many scientific studies.

Following the success of its book on mycotherapy published in 2009, the Society for Medicinal Mushroom Science (Gesellschaft für Vitalpilzkunde e.V.) has now released another comprehensive work on the subject. The book "Vitalpilze: Naturheilkraft mit Tradition – neu entdeckt" (Medicinal Mushrooms: Natural Healing Power with Tradition – Rediscovered) has been completely revised in terms of both content and design and provides information
on more than 200 pages about the fascinating possibilities of therapy with medicinal mushrooms. Detailed portraits of the fourteen most important medicinal mushrooms are included, as well as compact information on the most common clinical pictures for which mycotherapy can be used.
The book summarizes the current state of knowledge on the subject of medicinal mushrooms in a well-founded and vivid manner.
