Thanks for the recipe, Nancy! It sounds fab!
My feelins on medicinal mushrooms are that they should be used with care, just like any medicine. But I certainly agree with you that blanket statements like all mushrooms cause cancer are less credible than the long tradition of using mushrooms to heal in TCM. And if it worked for you before, that certainly is another reason to use them now. Same for the Pure Synergy!
I also agree with the idea that dietary protocols can be too restrictive. It's important to be careful though. You don't want to do something that will counteract the rememdy, and you don't want to create and 'internal environment' that will work in opposition to healing. I know I've eaten for short periods of time in ways that would make some folks cringe. But, for me, it's important to be able to distiquish between healthy cravings and unhealthy cravings, and give my body the healthy foods it requires at that time, even if it 'breaks protocol' for that short period of time. Protocols should be adjusted to each individual - ideally!
But, then, my opinion of dietary protocols is that restrictive diets should be for the short-term. Knowing why I'm excluding certain foods, and for how long, means I'm making intelligent changes and paying attention to the messages my body is sending me. Not everyone is interested in paying that much attention to how they eat and how their body is responding. If everyone did that, there would be no market for junk food, fast food, and over-processed food. LOL
Eating to heal and eating to maintain health are two different things!
