London-based Cancer Research U.K. recently published a monograph concerning medicinal mushrooms and cancer. This monograph provides a comprehensive overview of this subject from the technology of cultivation, extraction and chemistry of medicinal mushroom bioactive compounds to the clinical evidence that suggests an important therapeutic role in cancer and other major diseases. Cancer Research U.K. became aware that these natural products were being used extensively in the Far East as nutraceuticals and as a source for the generation of pharmaceutical-grade medicines to treat a wide variety of diseases, including cancer.
