Of course do appreciate the info on the fresh mushrooms and happy it is helping
But the reason you do not want to do this is the studies were not based on these
this is because of some of the info below
Consumer Alert
The best cordyceps is low temperature extracted from mycelia which have been specially fermented, not just whole mushroom powder.

If you have no funds to buy this or if you want to add more things, you could
1 use the less potent dried Agaricus Bisporus and cordyceps and take as a tea (important use distilled/steam distilled water for all teas, Better yet make a tincture with it.
dosing info-The standard tinctures dose for a 150 pound person is 60 drops (2 dropperfuls) 3-5 times a day, See Schulze tab.table of contents.dosing for children and pets for Clarks' rule for dosing if you weigh much above or less
than 150 For instance someone weighing 300 pounds would double the dose and take 150 drops or 4 dropperfuls etc
2 Use fresh Portabello mushrooms (And regular white button mushrooms for that matter for their health effects) heck they even make Portabello burgers now to possibly gain some effect
3 look for other similar products that might have at least some of the health benefits for the kidney and processed in comparable ways I am not sure of those products but feel the qunatum kidney complex is the one to use
4 reduce dose of the quantum kidney complex and then supplement it with one or two of these other things to spent less money if you have very low budget trying to get at least some benefits and some of the optimal one.
5 with a purchase of 4 bottles one gets free shipping so one can buy in bulk to save a little or see if other stores have this product cheaper
The one you want is quantum kidney complex.. of course maybe is you search around on might find the same thing cheaper elsewhere??
also
Also this product helps clean the blood and also remember another good thing for cleaning the blood of people are alterative herbs (see Dr Christoper's book school of natural healing for some of these..he says some are better for specific organs than others. After reading them all the one I chose for my mother with kidney disease was burdock root
I used herbpharm burdock root or make your own tincture using organic bulk herbs.
One could even wildcraft this yourself if you see when it is best harvested as it is a very common plant (see google images), you may well recognize it)..it is sometimes sold maybe even organically at health food stores and sometimes called gobo root. Just be sure not to use from sprayed areas or near highways due to pollution and chemicals.
If you picked it yourself in the wilds it would be similar to organic and the only cost would be the 80 proof vodka. Get one that say distilled form grain..the cheapest can be used. I get the biggest size when making tinctures and it costs here about $13.70 and would maybe make if you pick enough of the roots 20 or more of the one ounce bottles being about 20 bottles for the price of maybe 1 1/2 of the herbpharm and it is very easy to make tinctures and they last for decades. This would save you about 90% or more of the cost of buying burdock root and herb tinctures I save up to 85% of so by making my own using fresh, organic dried or wildcrafted dried bulk herbs
