Dave, I have a skin condition called tinea versicolor. Will taking mushroom supplements or drinking mushroom tea be bad for my skin condition or make it worse?

would the one from nutri vita shop would be a no go then? it says it is "reishi mushroom powder"
I would post a link, but it wouldn't let me. just google this: NutrivitaShop 100% Pure Reishi Mushroom Powder Pharmaceutical Grade -
At the begining of the interview Dave mentioned something about a recent publication that Jeff has issued. Could you please share the name of it and whether I could find it online? Thanks!

@Catherine. We're unable to comment on specific brands. Make sure to read the packaging and supplement info very carefully. Take a look at our research and education sections on our website (nammex.com). As for dosages, it would depend on quality and desired effects. For this you would need to touch base with your health practitioner and look into the research studies.

There's not enough time in the day to go further than listen to these very interesting interviews .. all I want to know is the actual brand names that can be trusted .. I'm assuming that Paul Stamets' company would be trusted, and Jing Herbs and Dragon Herbs I am also thinking. I am also not clear as to whether or not suggested dosages on even these trusted companies are effective, or fairly ineffectual dosages, as is the case with most supplements .. Because I live in Australia, I also pay more for imported products, etc .. so if you have a recommendation for Sydney in particular? .. I would appreciate it .. thanks

You didn't ask him his top three ways to kick ass? 😓

Nice interview. I'm drinking some polypore tea right now. It's changed my life.
