Can I take Maitake and Royal sun together?

למה זה קורה

These mushrooms have 'additive' effects. This means they work in similar ways to lower glucose and inhibit blood platelets from sticking together. When combined, their individual effects are added together, making the overall impact on your body stronger.

You may be experiencing an interaction between maitake and royal sun if:

• You develop digestive issues, such as bloating, nausea, diarrhoea, or stomach discomfort.

• You feel unusually tired, dizzy, or weak after taking both supplements together.

• You notice headaches or flu-like symptoms, possibly due to immune system stimulation.

• You experience allergic reactions, such as itching, rash, or swelling.

• You have increased bruising or bleeding, especially if taking blood-thinning medicines.

• Symptoms start shortly after beginning or increasing the dose of either supplement.

If you choose to take both, monitor your blood sugar levels closely, especially if you have diabetes. Watch for signs of low blood sugar, such as feeling shaky, sweaty, or dizzy. You should also be careful if you are taking blood-thinning medications or have an upcoming surgery. It is best to discuss the use of multiple medicinal mushrooms with your doctor or a pharmacist. If you have any of the above symptoms, you should:

• Stop taking the supplements and see if symptoms improve.

• Speak to your GP or pharmacist for personalised advice.

• Seek urgent medical help if you develop severe allergic reactions, such as swelling of the face or difficulty breathing.

• Tell your healthcare professional about all medicines and supplements you are taking.

• Avoid restarting the supplements until a healthcare professional advises it is safe.

הפרעות דימום או ניתוח

These supplements may slow blood clotting and increase the risk of bleeding. You must stop taking these at least 2 weeks before any scheduled surgery. Use with caution if you are taking blood-thinning medications like warfarin or aspirin.

סוכרת

These supplements can lower blood sugar levels. If you are taking insulin or other diabetes medications, monitor your blood sugar closely as your dose may need adjustment to prevent hypoglycaemia (dangerously low blood sugar).

Auto-immune conditions (e.g., multiple sclerosis, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis)

These supplements can increase immune system activity, which may worsen the symptoms of autoimmune diseases. Avoid use if you have these conditions.

Low blood pressure (Hypotension)

These supplements may lower blood pressure. If you already have low blood pressure or take medication to control high blood pressure, they could cause your blood pressure to drop too low.

אלכוהול

It is best to avoid or strictly limit alcohol when taking medicinal mushrooms. Both alcohol and certain compounds in these mushrooms are processed by the liver; combining them may increase the strain on your liver or alter how the supplements are metabolised.
