Mushrooms are fun. After learning some about it, some of them have amazing health benefits. Like normal foods like veggies will have anti-oxidants or other beneficial properties. Some mushroom types will have antioxidants in stratospheric levels making them super foods. This winter, my Dad and I went out and picked some of those mushrooms to make a tea out of them because it was a super-food mushroom. After drinking the tea, cancer on his ear shrank within the days / weeks that followed. They actually make cancer medicines out of some of these mushrooms now days.
