![]() Anyone who knows me will be able to tell you how much I go on about the power of mushrooms. I am a strong believer that nature provided everything we need to cure and survive, but unfortunately we do not use the power of nature enough. Surely natural products are better than man made chemical tablets? How I came to love mushroom power? My best 4 legged friend is called Skooter, I adopted him 12 years ago from a UK shelter, he had lived in this shelter for 3 years, the rescue told me he was too aggressive, never be off lead and not good with children. I knew he was not that boy so adopted him and he has been my best friend ever since. He was off lead within a few days, amazing with children and the best role model for all the dogs we have fostered over the years. 100’s of foster dogs, not just a few.. So when I noticed he was not right I took him to the vet, I could smell a smell I had not before, the vet thought I was crazy as could not smell it, no-one else could but me, I just knew something was not right. When he had a full exam the vet found a lump, we did some tests and we found he had a cancer, a Sarcoma, the vet said likely I would have a month with him as this cancer spreads quickly to the lungs. To say I was devastated was an understatement. Not one to quit easily I researched as much as I could have found a great dog cancer book. The biggest fact I took from this book was do not feed our dogs dry food. Why?? Because the temperature they have to cook the biscuits at turns the food carcinogenic. So slowly we are killing our dogs by the food we feed them. Dogs have no choice, they eat what we provide, so let’s provide them good natural nutrition, not cancer causing nutrition. It’s the same as for humans, we are what we eat, we need good natural fuel, no chemicals or processed rubbish. (Subject of a future blog I’m sure) I started to home cook for Skoot, simmered, natural no rubbish.One night I was reading one of my vegan magazines and there was an article on mushrooms and how amazing they are and the powers they possess. Can they be that good? Well the answer is yes, they can kill cancer cells and promote cell regeneration. There are many articles and some say no proof but the proof is that my Skooter has been by my side for the past 16 months and is fighting fit and the cancer has not grown? Is this not a miracle? Well I believe the diet and mushrooms have worked their magic and I am so grateful. I started by mixing the mushroom powder into his food, but found these vegan capsules on amazon that include turmeric. I now give him 1 capsule a day maintenance adding the capsule to his food. I recommend to anyone whether 4 legged or 2 legged who is suffering with the dreaded C to please try these tablets. What’s the harm? For £19 per month at 2 tablets a day then can reduce to 1 tablet a day, isn’t it worth the try? I am thankful to the power of mushrooms and long may they help my boy.
