Merger

Support, although there isn't much to merge since the possible medicinal effects of the mushroom do not have sound sourcing and are far from meeting the quality needed per WP:MEDRS. I revised the content of the merge article here. There is little value to this page which should be merged, disregarded, and closed. --Zefr (talk) 14:54, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Okay merging. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 00:57, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Update

research is showing anti-cancer properties of the terpenes and turpinoids For instance: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32485283/ Gardnerlt728 (talk) 16:51, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's early-stage in vitro research, WP:MEDINVITRO and 4 years out of date. Far too preliminary to mention in an encyclopedia. Zefr (talk) 19:23, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
