The PATM Cure is Here -- Part II

Hi guys -- hope your autumn/fall is going well, and you're ready for the holidays!

Some time ago I wrote a post called "The PATM Cure is Here."  In the post, I wrote about how I had been suffering from PATM for a few years, but at a certain point I stopped seeing reactions when I tried two main things:  saccharomyces boulardii (which helps fight candida) and brown rice protein powder (which heals leaky gut).  The post got a lot of responses, and in later years a few people gave testimonials about how brown rice protein powder greatly reduced their reactions.

Well, unfortunately, this past spring I started seeing some reactions again.  I think it might have been due to an antibiotic I took, which may have affected my gut lining (it doesn't surprise me, as I blame an antibiotic for my first battle with PATM).  Anyway, it really stressed me out, as I didn't want to have to through all this again.  I tried out several new supplements, and none of them really worked.  Then I tried out something else.  Reishi 415.

My friends -- I believe this is what we've been looking for.

A week after I started taking it, my reactions decreased again.  Another week later, and they were gone.  And a few months later, they haven't returned.  They are gone -- completely.  I don't like to use the word "cure," but I feel very strongly that this supplement may be it.  Here's why:

Reishi addresses the two main issues that I believe are responsible for our condition:  candida and leaky gut.  It does so by busting through the biofilms that surround candida and healing inflammation around the gut.  Because it tackles both of these problems, it is more powerful than just taking supplements for candida or leaky gut alone.

I know there may be concerns that it is a mushroom (and thus a fungi), but it is what you call a "medicinal mushroom."  Instead of feeding candida it competes with it for space, and also has anti-microbial properties.  So it's one of the safe ones.  The only thing you have to be careful of is if you are taking blood-thinning medications like warfarin (Coumadin and Jantoven) because it also has anti-coagulant properties.  You may have to avoid it in that case.  Also, a website says that if you are an organ transplant recipient or are on immunosuppressive therapy, you should consult your doctor first before taking it.

Now here's the important thing.  You can't just buy any reishi supplement.  Most of the ones on the market do not contain the actual mushroom -- instead, they contain a mushroom substitute called "mycelium."  Mycelium is not as strong as the real thing.  There is only one brand I've come across that I believe gets the job done.   It's called Reishi 415, and it is manufactured by a company called Real Mushrooms in Canada.  They import their mushrooms directly from China (where reishi has been used to heal a variety of conditions for centuries).  I cannot emphasize this enough:  IF YOU BUY ANY OTHER BRAND THIS MAY NOT WORK.

I've found three websites you can buy the product:

*Amazon
*The Real Mushrooms website
*A website for a company called Well Pet Dispensary, based in Colorado

Unfortunately, as of now the product is not sold in any physical retail stores.

HERE ARE SOME IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE:

*Buy the capsule version (90 capsules) and not the powder one.  The capsules absorb better.
*Take 2 capsules a day (at same time)
*Take the capsules on an empty stomach -- preferably when you first get up in the morning.  If you do eat food, try not to take it until 1 or 2 hours later, when your stomach is more free.
*It would be a good idea to take a Vitamin C tablet at the same time.  They help the reishi absorb better.  I take Vitamin C 1000 myself.  No one's forcing you to do it, but don't you want to give yourself the best shot?
*Avoid sugar as much as possible while taking it.  Again, don't you want to give yourself the best shot?

I am already anticipating some questions, so I'll answer a few upfront:

*While I was taking Reishi 415, I did not consume any sugar or added sugar products (cookies, cakes, etc.).  I basically followed the candida diet:  eggs/bread/tea (with stevia) in the morning; a sandwich for lunch (usually chicken or turkey); and chicken/turkey for dinner with rice (brown or white) and cucumbers/lettuce/tomatoes on the side.  I still largely follow that diet now as I think it is healthy, but I can eat sweet stuff occasionally and still have no problems.

*As for other supplements I took while I first started taking Reishi 415:  they included Calcium-Vitamin D, saccharomyces boulardii , and kombucha capsules.  They did not have anything to do with reducing my reactions, I just took them for general health/other stuff.  I still take them.   I haven't been taking the brown rice powder anymore.

*I still take the Reishi 415 as I know it can take a long time to fully heal leaky gut.  I don't know if I'll ever stop at any point, but I don't think my reactions would come back if I did, because I've been taking it for a few months.

If you want information discussing what I've said about reishi, Google the following articles (in quotes):

"Immune Boosters:  Red Reishi" (on The Candida Diet website)
"Is Reishi Mushroom Good for Candida" (on the Yeast Infection website)
"Reishi mushroom and Candida" (on the Fungi Health website)
"Reishi mushrooms fight yeast infections " (on the Nutrition Healing website)

I know people may be skeptical, but give it a try first.  At least two weeks.  I wouldn't have created this whole new post if I didn't feel confident about this.  Good luck!

I took exactly the same reishi that you mention (it only took 3 days) and I feel that the reactions are increasing a little instead of decreasing, right now I don't know whether to continue or continue taking them, has someone had something similar happen to them? and hopeful12345 was completely cured?

Ganoderma lucidum is a very common and cheap medicinal material in China. I don't think it can have a good effect.

I’ve been research for years, I tried most supplements didn’t work in last. I found charcoal capsules help with probiotics kale no sugar pop or milk.  There was others but that was a waste of miney

It probably does help some sufferers but using the word cure is a problem because there hasn’t been any cure once. Some people would use a product and get temporarily reliefs then start calling it a cure until it returns and go through the alleged cure discovery process over and over again.  The best we can hope for is for some stable treatment. That can only come from a complete scientific research and study of patm. None of us are medical experts so cannot come from any us. If it happens within our lifetime it will come from the scientific community.

Guys ive been dealing with patm. Caughs are psycological social attacks. Some times i dont get near people and they cough its all hate. The patm is a spore that goes into the air unlike a droplet which is what most diseases are transmitee. A doctor in monterrey examined me and said it was a spore from hamburgers . thats how i developed patm i had fast food and i felt like puking it but i didnt want to puke it because of the sorroundings so it became constipation that almost damaged my heart from being so backed up for so many days. Then it left spore bacteria overgrowth and it goes everywhere i go into the enviroment and people get a little sick. I got in trouble because i wasnt a u.s citizen and the cia initiated a surveillance case against me i still dont know whether they want to kill me or put me in jail. They managed to get me deported . so be careful it is punishable . the trasmission causes enough damage that it matters to the cia. They will monitor you with cameras and audio systems. Take care patmers.
