Chase the Turkey Tail Mushrooms
There’s fungus among us, and it can do a lot for both our health and the health of our four-legged family members. In fact, there’s one specific mushroom that can deliver a major immunity boost to humans, cats, and dogs.
It’s called turkey tail mushroom. It’s worth chasing down like a dog’s own tail. Why? Because it delivers some serious health benefits for pets, especially when you get it from a high-quality source.
Why pet experts recommend turkey tail mushrooms
Turkey tail mushroom — aptly named, as it turns out — has been getting a lot of medical attention of late, primarily as a helper in cancer therapy. Researchers are excited about this fungus because of its ability to act as an immune modulator, which essentially means it boosts your body’s immune response.
In pets, it functions the same. The medicinal components in this mushroom — polysaccharide-K (PSK) and polysaccharide-P (PSP) — directly interact with your dog or cat’s immune system. As a result, turkey tail can help to restore immune function in pets with a lowered immune response (e.g., pets with an autoimmune disease) and support a healthy immune system in all pets. This makes it easier for their system to fight viral, fungal, parasitic, and bacterial infections, including yeast.
At the same time, as turkey tail mushroom interacts with your pet’s immune system, it helps to moderate over-reactivity. This helps to ward off inflammation, even going so far as to reduce the cytokines that contribute to this swelling.
On top of all of this, turkey tail is a prebiotic, so it can help with your pet’s digestion, too.
High-functioning fungi
Like anything that grows, where and how turkey tail develops makes a difference in its nutrient density. Ideally, you want it to grow in an environment tailored to help it maximize its enzymatic activity and, as a result, the nutrients in it.
Plus, how the mushroom gets prepared afterward can compromise what’s in it. If the turkey tail gets dehydrated at a high temperature, for example, it can lose the bioactive compounds that benefit your pet’s health.
As a result, it’s important to get this mushroom from a source that’s thoughtfully growing and prepping the turkey tail. That might sound a little daunting. How do you find a reputable mushroom source? We’ve got you covered.
