Thank you for the information. This research looks promising. You’re right about big pharma. They will fight tooth-and-nail to maintain their profits, no matter at whose expense or how many lives it costs. Keep the faith

" One problem the drug companies have is that if Turkey tail was recognized as medicine, big pharma would not be able to make $$$$$$ on it because it is so widely available in markets and in the wild."
Exactly and that is why they are now extracting PSP and PSK so that if they work they can than claim that it works in "patented" and "purified" form.
Second important thing - it is often contra-productive to extract one singular chemical out of medicinal plant since many of substances in any particular plant work in synergy ! They often amplify potency of each other !!! So when researchers isolate one single chemical "A" and do tests and get so-so results they wrongfully conclude that the whole plant does not give statistically significant results. They have no idea that chemical "A" actually gives excellent result when chemical "B" is present in the same extract. It is the same with regular medications when they tell patient "do not take with food" for example. Just slowing medication's absorption can make it ineffective. OR, if you take Synthroid (thyroid med) with magnesium it will not be absorbed and work correctly.
For all of the above reasons, if one wants to try this mushroom he should take it in a powdered form IMHO.
