Healing Mushrooms
Georges M. Halpern
ISBN 0-7570-0196-3
The book looks at how modern science has refocused its attention on the healing properties of mushrooms and, along the way, discovered some wonderful new properties of these gifts of the earth. It examines the folklore, the health benefits, and even the culinary uses of each of the mushrooms under discussion. From their use as a cholesterol-lowering agent to their anti-tumor activities to their promise of reversing Alzheimer‘s, mushrooms are some of nature‘s greatest wonders.
