The medicinal properties of Phellinus linteus in treating illnesses have been well known in oriental medicine since ancient times. An old Korean saying states that if you are able to find a yellow lump that grows on a mulberry tree, then you can bring a dying person back to life.
Researchers based at the Boston University School of Medicine in the USA studied extracts of Phellinus linteus They tested its effects on prostate cancer cells and found that when it was combined with the common chemotherapy treatment doxorubicin it increased the number of prostate cancer cells killed by the drug.
I'd be interested in knowing if it had the same effect on Breast Cancer Cells. Phellinus linteus is available for purchase over the internet, albeit from Korea or Japan.
