Wood Ear Mushroom


Wood ear mushroom is also known as black fungus, which is another favourite of mine, which is chewy like overcooked kangaroo meat. You can purchase from Asian grocery stores but you do need to soak in water to rehydrate them. UK people purchase from Chinese grocers. They are effective for the Lungs, Stomach and Liver. It is a staple food in the Chinese tradition rich in iron like red meat. I would go as far as to state it is better than kangaroo meat.


The benefits are: - Anti-viral, wood ear contains germanium, which has anti-viral and anti-tumor fighting properties. - Blood circulation preventing heart attacks, heart disease, cholesterol, and stroke. - Clears internal body heat. - Dissolves Kidney stones, Bladder stones and Gallstones. - Moistens the Lungs for dryness such as dry throat or cough. - Promotes positive emotions. - Haemorrhoids and constipation. - Intestinal fat loss.
