SEARCHING:
How to search for cutting edge medical topics:
1. www.google.com/scholar
2. www.google.com/patents
3. pubmed (limited articles but still good)
Take everything with a grain of salt. Even published works. Pharmaceutical companies are blasting the published literature with fake stuff. Here is an article on it https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2734229/
But what is happening is the pharma companies know media and people are reading them... so its like advertisements for them.
MUSHROOMS BUYING:
1. Best and only place to get mushrooms you can use for cooking is - www.farwestfungi.com
I order online - 1 pound of dried shitake (whole)- then use a coffee grinder to powder it and put into soups and sauces (even teriakye sauce and chicken soup!) (shiitake, maitake...)
2. www.alohamedicinals.com - this is the source for my bulk mushrooms. If you want capsules and in bulk - I can see what the cost? Bonus - when I buy in bulk they provide a copy of the testing they do on the mushrooms - heavy metal/bacterial counts etc.
3. www.qualityoflife.net - This is the only official distributor in the USA - for AHCC. HOLY CRAP - I just went to their website - and you can get it for $31.96!?!? https://qualityoflife.net/products/ahcc-kinoko-gold-500-mg
They made me sign something that I would not go under $45?! I might call up to see if bulk is cheaper as well?
4. www.gillsandpores.com - You can alway buy aloha medicinals from me if you like? I will see if I can get the AHCC even cheaper... I will keep you updated.
RESEARCH:
1. https://sites.google.com/site/medicalbraindump/ - this is my google site - when ever i search for a topic for a friend- i would create a page that would show the results of different studies I found interesting and possible solutions :)
2. https://sites.google.com/site/ahigetit/ - this is my google site also - I made this site first - when my dad got sick - I wanted to keep all the research I did in one location - and knowning that people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer can die quickly - I wanted this site available for other people - to get their research started. (not sure if anyone actually checks it out!)
3. My Tool - I created my tool - to help search for leads on what the cutting edge research is on a topic. I can see trends over time... by countries, authors etc. When my dad was sick - I wanted to see what hospital/university was publishing the most articles - cuttiing edge research etc.
My Tool:
1. I was really hoping I could create a tool - that people that have conditions could search and I would display different - natural remedies backed by studies. My question to you guys is - what do you wish you had when you searched for stuff?
Random Notes from meeting:
1. Reishi - the key is nf-kappa b. If you search for a condition and you see it talks about upregulation of nf-kappa b - then reishi will definitely work. I have a ton of links to studies on my website https://sites.google.com/site/medicalbraindump/
2. AHCC - great for keeping the blood strong and fighting off infections.
3. Vaccinations - auto immunity - doctors have no idea what they are doing... try not to be their test subject :) - http://info.cmsri.org/the-driven-researcher-blog/on-vaccines-adjuvants-and-autoimmunity
4. If anyone want further explanation of something I was talking about or studies - just tell me :) I can't remember everything we talked about :)
