The study estimated 20 million annual missed workdays might be just the tip of the iceberg, because the estimates include only colds that resulted in doctor’s visits or restricted activity days. There may be as many as 70 million lost workdays due to colds, when actual missed work time is combined with lost productivity. Past flu seasons likely cost employers nationwide millions of lost workdays and billions of dollars. Nearly 111 million workdays are lost due to the flu each year, There may be as many as according to Flu.gov, costing employers approximately $7 billion per year in sick days and lost productivity. 70 million lost workdays The study also found Americans spend nearly $3 billion annually on over- due to colds, when the-counter drugs that may not provide any symptom relief. actual missed work time Since the 1940s, studies have shown the use of botanicals and nutritional supplements may both prevent and reduce the effects of common colds and is combined with lost influenza and support immune cell function and promote respiratory health.* productivity. -
Supplements with Anti-Cancer Activity
COMPLEMENTARY THERAPIES FOR PETS WITH CANCER The approach to helping pets that have been diagnosed with cancer goes beyond surgery, chemotherapy or radiation, and palliative care. There are a number of other options to support and treat pets with cancer, which can be used in conjunction with the conventional methods, or which be employed on their own. The goals are generally to slow or stop the progression of cancer, and provide the pet the best quality of life possible for the longest period of time. In order to do this, the steps are: 1) Provide the best diet possible (return to the Kali’s Wish Info Hub for more diet info). 2) Supply specific nutrients and supplements that are the best combination to strengthen the pet’s immune system and support the whole body. 3) Provide supplements and nutraceuticals to slow or stop the cancer. 4) Make lifestyle changes that will help support the pet’s health. Supplements with Anti-Cancer Activity There is ever increasing research into supplements and nutraceuticals (purified extracts usually from plants) that have anti-cancer activity. The mechanisms by which most supplements work against cancer are: 1) Inducing apoptosis - causing the cancer cell to break apart and die; occurs by various mechanisms. 2) Anti-angiogenesis—blocks the formation of blood vessels in the tumour, so that it can’t receive nutrients and oxygen, and can’t grow easily. 3) Pro-angiogenesis—supports formation of blood vessels (sometimes useful to help penetration of herbs into the center of tumour masses, and can increase oxygen in anoxic environments). -

Studies detected that others edible mushrooms affected renal metabolism and despite the widespread use of A. brasiliensis there are no studies that address biological effects on the renal function indices after their oral administration. Therefore, this study had as objective to verify the effects on kidney function indices after long intake of A. brasiliensis mycelium. Approach: Wheat grains was cultured during 18 days with Agaricus brasiliensis mycelium by solid state culture and used for chown formulation. Groups of female Swiss mice (20 per group) were fed during 14 weeks with 100 and 50% of the formulated feed denominated A100 and A50, respectively. -

D. Afonso V, 5300-121 Bragança. 4CEQUIMED-UP, Research Center of Medicinal Chemistry, University of Porto, Portugal. Laboratory of Microbiology, 5Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Porto, Portugal. Abstract: For thousands of years medicine and natural products have been closely linked through the use of traditional medicines and natural poisons. Mushrooms have an established history of use in traditional oriental medicine, where most medicinal mushroom prepara- tions are regarded as a tonic, that is, they have beneficial health effects without known negative side-effects and can be moderately used on a regular basis without harm. Mushrooms comprise a vast and yet largely untapped source of powerful new pharmaceutical products. In particular, and most importantly for modern medicine, they represent an unlimited source of compounds which are modulators of tu- mour cell growth. Furthermore, they may have potential as functional foods and sources of novel molecules. We will review the com- pounds with antitumor potential identified so far in mushrooms, including low-molecular-weight (LMW, e.g. quinones, cerebrosides, isoflavones, catechols, amines, triacylglycerols, sesquiterpenes, steroids, organic germanium and selenium) and high-molecular-weight compounds (HMW, e.g. homo and heteroglucans, glycans, glycoproteins, glycopeptides, proteoglycans, proteins and RNA-protein com- plexes). -

Received Date: 24 February 2021; Accepted Date: 01 Mach 2021; Published Date: 08 March 2021 Abstract Background: Some mushrooms possess strong immunostimulating properties and may prevent the occurrence of viral infections. Objective: Assess whether oral intake of food mushrooms may decrease the incidence of herpetic or SARS-COV-2 infections. Methods: Descriptive retrospective epidemiological study with data collected during routine gastroenterological consultations in patients with a high risk of viral infections and who are recommended to take mushrooms. Compliant and non-compliant groups are compared. Results: 186 patients are included. 156 patients are compliant. The long-term intake of Coriolus versicolor, Phellinus linteus, Grifola Frondosa or Ganoderma lucidum significantly decreases the global risk of viral infection (89.4% versus 13.3%; p<0.001). More specifically, this intake decreases the risk of COVID-19 (7.7% versus 13.4%; p<0.001), herpetic flares (3.2% versus 39.1%; p<0.01) and of polyps or HPV-induced lesions (0.7% versus 6.7%; p<0.001). -
