Medicinal Mushrooms and Deep Roots Soup

If you’re not already eating edible medicinal mushrooms, this recipe for Medicinal Mushrooms and Deep Roots Soup would be a good idea to start. Especially, if your immune system is down or you’re struggling with blood sugar imbalances, high blood pressure, and/or cancer.

There’s a wealth of scientific data linking mushrooms to a host of benefits for good health:

  • Shitake Mushrooms contain a compound called lentinan. In clinical studies patients using shitake mushrooms have shown higher survival rates and lower recurrence of cancer.[1]
  • Maitake Mushrooms have anticancer, antiviral, and immune-system enhancing effects and may also help control both high blood pressure and blood sugar levels.[2]

I’m using both of these medicinal mushrooms in this delicious and health supportive soup.

Use the recipe below to start cooking up better health!

    I was pleasantly surprised to find this wonderful website with this awesome soup recipe. I grew up in Japan and was raised on this sort of healthy food. When moved to U.S. we started on junk food . Now at 65, I am fit and trim eating lots of root veggies and juicing for 35 years.
