BIRCH POLYPORE

One of the forgotten, less mainstream medicinal mushrooms, yet still has many potent healing properties.

Birch Polypore contains a natural anti-biotic called Piptamine and the whole mushroom is said to be effective against various strains of bacteria including E. coli.

It’s known for its anti-inflammatory properties due to triterpine acids(secondary metabolites), which can reduce swelling and help numbing pain.

Betulinic acid, found in Birch Polypore has been shown in various studies to initiate apoptosis, or death of cancer cells. It does this by inhibiting angiogenesis, the formation of new blood cells which occurs in tumour growth

Birch Polypore can be used to cleanse the digestive system, due to its laxative properties, and is effective in treating the Parasitic intestinal worm called Whipworm along with other intestinal parasites due to its anti-parasitic properties. 

Its anti-viral properties are active against flu, cowpox, yellow fever and other potentially deadly viruses. In 2001, an extract of birch polypore containing betulinic acid showed useful antiviral action against HIV by blocking its reproduction.

And finally it works as an aromatase inhibitor, meaning it helps to prevent the conversion of androgen hormones into oestrogen. This is important in both men and women as high oestrogen levels are linked to many hormonal imbalances and cancers. Birch Polypore can regulate oestrogen level in both men and women.
