MUSHROOM EXTRACTS: Mushroom extracts have been used by the Chinese
                for thousands of years and are still highly revered.
                In addition, modern studies suggest its rich content
                of polysaccharides is what makes the mushroom so
                valuable.  Polysaccharides are long chains of sugar
                molecules. When an imbalance of these polysaccharides
                occurs, within our bodies, illness results.  The
                following extracts help the body to regain and
                maintain a natural balance.  All come in 1 oz. amber
