Can anyone recommend a good mushroom-based immune complex?

[bad1080]

this is the only complex i tried: https://hostdefense.com/products/stamets-7-capsules?variant=38115244298

while i had no complaints in regards to the quality it is probably overpriced for what it is and so i bought raw powder instead and made my own mix. they are high in histamine from what i understand so be careful with that in case you have sensitivity issues.

There's a recipe for roasted shiitakes in this book that I just love. I would live on these if they weren't so expensive!

@wabi-sabi - i’m sure it’s delicious! Would it be possible to post the actual recipe? But if too much trouble, no worries. -

Sadly, I don't have the cookbook anymore-I should just buy a new copy. Pretty sure my mother threw it out since it was my favorite.

Basically, thinnly clice shiitakes, put on a bit of olive oil and salt and roast on a cookie sheet until they are like mushroom jerky. Maybe about 375F for 15-20 minutes? Can't quite remembe temp and time, but it'sin that range.

I got hit in 1998.

There were some really bad respiratory colds around 97-99. Mine started in 99. It seems to be a large cohort.

I also tried an immune blend that I bought on a whim because it was half price. It had 7 kinds of mushrooms plus green tea, blueberry extract and a couple of other things. It doesn't have much noticeable effect other than being a health food supplement. It's a Canadian brand (Purica Immune 7) but probably similar. I take it from time to time just as an extra.

That sounds really good. I've bought shiitakes a couple of times and felt like I wasted them. I should try this method.

I should try this method.

I could eat pounds of shiitakes cooked like this! It is my favorite way to make mushrooms. Other varieties might be good too-I've just never tried.

I've cooked lots of vegetables this way - zucchini, onions, bell peppers, cabbage, broccoli I think - but never mushrooms - I'm going to try that! Thank you! Most vegetables get an amazing flavor from roasting --
