  schema:description "Maitake, or hen of the woods, is an edible mushroom whose extracts are sold to boost the immune system against cancer. Small studies show changes in immune markers, but no trial has shown that it shrinks cancer or helps people live longer. It can lower blood sugar, and in one person taking warfarin it made the blood slower to clot."@en ;
