Patients with nasopharyngeal cancer should eat Cordyceps sinensis

Cordyceps sinensis is a complex of the fruiting body of Cordyceps sinensis of the ergot family parasitizing the larvae of insects of the bat moth family and the corpse of the larvae. It is a traditional precious tonic Chinese medicinal material with multiple functions such as regulating the immune system, anti-tumor, and anti-fatigue. It is also very suitable for patients with nasopharyngeal cancer.

Its nature and flavor are sweet and warm, and it enters the lung and kidney meridians. It has the effects of nourishing the kidney and lung, stopping bleeding and resolving phlegm. Cordyceps sinensis is rich in fat, protein, crude fiber, carbohydrates, etc.

Its anti-cancer and anti-tumor effects are very obvious. Its water extract and alcohol extract can significantly inhibit the growth of S180, mouse lung cancer, mouse breast cancer and other tumors. Its alcohol extract has a therapeutic effect on squamous epithelial hyperplasia of the forestomach of mice and can reduce the incidence of cancer.

In addition, taking Cordyceps sinensis can also inhibit the rejection reaction of T lymphocytes and stimulate the immune response non-specifically, thereby improving the body's anti-cancer ability. Some domestic experts and scholars believe that the anti-tumor effect of Cordyceps sinensis is achieved by regulating human immunity, because reduced immunity is the root cause of tumor occurrence, progression, metastasis, recurrence, and difficulty in controlling and curing, and the cordyceps toxin in Cordyceps sinensis is the main component of its anti-tumor effect.

Clinical practice has shown that regular consumption of Cordyceps sinensis plays a great role in helping nasopharyngeal cancer patients fight tumors and recover their bodies. Patients who have the conditions can take it as a decoction or adjuvant for a long time.
