Turkey Tail Mushroom Extract by 7 Gates Apothecary provides powerful immune and liver support, blending Traditional Chinese Medicine insights with modern adaptogenic science for whole-body resilience and vitality.
Turkey Tail Mushroom: Immune Guardian by 7 Gates Apothecary is a full-spectrum extract made from Trametes versicolor, known in Traditional Chinese Medicine as Yun Zhi (云芝). This triple-extracted formula—crafted with water, organic alcohol, and USP-grade vegetable glycerin—delivers potent immunomodulating and detoxifying compounds in an easily absorbable form.
Turkey Tail has been traditionally used to strengthen the Spleen, clear Damp-Heat, and tonify Qi and Essence. In both TCM and modern research, it is recognized for supporting immune function, enhancing liver detoxification, and reducing the adverse effects of chemotherapy or chronic illness. Its broad-spectrum action makes it an ideal ally in protocols addressing chronic fatigue, digestive weakness, and cancer recovery.
This extract may support:
- Immune system balance and resilience
- Liver protection and detoxification (hepatitis, cirrhosis)
- Fatigue, weakness, and digestive deficiency
- Adjunctive care in cancer, HIV, and post-chemotherapy recovery
- Qi and Essence tonification for long-term vitality
