Encyclopedia of Medicinal Mushrooms

Our most comprehensive book on medicinal mushrooms to date is intended primarily for students of natural sciences and pharmacology, as well as for all nature enthusiasts, active mushroom pickers, and those interested in the treatment and prevention of diseases using natural remedies. The publication includes over 480 color photographs of mushrooms and more than 165 illustrations of biochemical structures. Each medicinal mushroom species is described based on its macroscopic characteristics and key features that distinguish it from similar-looking species with which it could be confused, the content of identified bioactive substances, their medicinal effects, and the potential practical uses of the given mushroom.
