Q's about mushrooms and grains

Not sure if this is the correct forum... I have some dried maitake mushrooms, and some places say to avoid mushrooms while detoxing. maitake are one of the mushrooms known to improve health, but could they also be bad, and be fungus to avoid? I've read they grow where trees are dying, n that doesn't sound good to eat... can't find much about mushrooms though. I know they're in the fungus n mold family but a certain species. would that causemore problems while detoxing for mold?

Also, I keep reading about grains having mold problems. I figure I should stop eating puffed grain cereal that's been sitting on a shelf a long time. I don't know anywhere that sells fresh grain around here. Is it better to avoid cereals and oats, just buying dried grain and boiling it , like rice, kamut, barley, n millet? Or is dried bad also, since its not fresh?

What about nuts having mold? How bad is this problem n how can I still eat nuts n avoid mold? Tweet
