Can I take Maitake and Royal sun together?

Por qué sucede esto

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.

• Informe a su profesional de la salud sobre todos los medicamentos y suplementos que está tomando.

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

Trastornos de la coagulación o cirugía

Estos suplementos pueden ralentizar la coagulación de la sangre y aumentar el riesgo de sangrado. Debe dejar de tomarlos al menos 2 semanas antes de cualquier cirugía programada. Úsese con precaución si está tomando medicamentos anticoagulantes como warfarina o aspirina.

Diabetes

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).

Condiciones autoinmunes (por ejemplo, esclerosis múltiple, lupus, artritis reumatoide)

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

Presión arterial baja (Hipotensión)

Estos suplementos pueden reducir la presión arterial. Si ya tienes presión arterial baja o tomas medicación para controlar la hipertensión, podrían hacer que tu presión arterial baje demasiado.

Alcohol

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.
