"In a preclinical study published in the journal Frontiers in Pharmacology, researchers from the USA investigated the potential chemopreventive effects of a mushroom - Ganoderma lucidum (GL)-derived commercial product named GLSF in vitro and in mice with lung carcinogenesis induced by two to***co smoke carcinogens ... They found that mice treated with GLSF had lower B[a]P-induced lung toxicity and reduced NNK-induced lung tumor development."

Researchers find that a mushroom-derived product, GLSF, shows promise in reducing lung toxicity and tumor development induced by to***co smoke carcinogens in mice. The study opens the door for future clinical trials, potentially offering a natural preventive measure against lung cancer.

"A recent study found that if the funding cuts to scientific research proposed by the Trump administration had been in place in past decades, critical medications for lung cancer, leukemia, HIV/AIDS, and other diseases might never have been developed.
