What is Garden of Life RM-10 ?
For thousands of years people have used herbs to promote healthy immune
system function and ward off many diseases. RM-10 is a combination
of 10 certified organic medicinal mushrooms synergistically balanced with
Aloe Vera and the healing herb Uncaria tomentosa (Cat's Claw). These unique
nutrients have been specifically chosen to feed and nourish the immune system.
Each of the powerful ingredients in Garden of Life RM-10 have been pre-digested
using the Poten-Zyme process of bio-fermentation, enhancing absorption
and utilization while also providing beneficial probiotics and enzymes.
RM-10 was formulated by Jordan S. Rubin, N.M.D., for his grandmother
who had been diagnosed with metastatic cancer (see testimonial section).

in immune system supplementation.

Why take Garden of Life RM-10 ?
Medicinal mushrooms have been used traditionally for thousands of years
for their remarkable healing potential and are now being validated by medical
science for their tremendous therapeutic value. Preliminary laboratory studies

cell and macrophage activity. In addition, test results indicate that Garden of Life RM-10
enhances innate immunity and exhibits anti-tumoral properties.
What's in RM-10 ?
Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi): Appearing in ancient Chinese
herb texts more than 1500 years ago, this unique herb was considered to
be the "mushroom of immortality" and the "great protector".
Reishi appears to vitally aid in the immune system and have a strong effect
against tumors and cancer. A potential treatment for arthritis, it has
been further shown to enhance the cardiovascular system and is found to
prevent and treat hardening of the arteries, angina, and shortness of
breath associated with coronary heart disease.
Cordyceps sinensis: Commonly used for impotence and
fertility, Cordyceps sinensis greatly improves immune system function
and strengthens the body's resistance to bacteria and viruses. In addition,
it has been used in China as a tonic for the lungs and kidneys to relieve
excessive fatigue, anemia, and depression.
Coriolus versicolor: Considered to be a very powerful
antioxidant, anti-bacterial, anti-tumoral, and immune system enhancer,
Coriolus versicolor has been helpful in treating and decreasing the recurrence
of gastric cancer and significantly inhibiting the growth of leukemia
cells.
Lentinula edodes (Shiitake): Extracts from this mushroom
have been shown to be effective against Type 1 Herpes Simplex virus, depressed
immune system function, cancer, AIDS, environmental allergies, candida
infections, as well as frequent colds and flu. Shiitake has been used
in the Orient for prevention of high blood pressure, controlling cholesterol
levels, and as a potent kidney and liver tonic.
Agaricus blazei: Has amazing immune enhancing effects
on the body as well as anti-tumor, anti-viral, and blood sugar lowering
properties. It also helps to form the enzyme tyrosinase which is used
by the body to synthesize the protein melanin. Melanin gives color to
the skin and is a vital component of skin and semen.
Grifola frondosa (Maitake): In Japan, the Maitake mushroom
is called the "king of the mushrooms", and many researchers
believe it has anti-tumor effects. In the feudal era of Japan, Maitake
was exchanged for its weight in silver by local lords who in turn offered
it to the Shogun. Maitake can be used on a daily basis to promote healthy
metabolic function and maintain vibrant immunity.
Hericium erinaceus: Commonly prescribed in traditional
Chinese medicine for stomach ailments and for prevention of GI tract cancer,
Hericium erinaceus has also been shown to be effective as an immune enhancer,
nerve tonic and a support for respiratory system function.
Poria cocos: This herb is valued for its easy assimilation,
helping the body shed surplus fluid, and aiding digestion. It is further
used to strengthen the spleen and stomach, eliminate phlegm, calm the
heart, and lower blood sugar levels.
Tremella fuciformus: A highly prized health food commonly
prepared as a soup to strengthen the lungs, restore physical vitality,
improve mental acuity, and replenish body fluids. It is recommended in
China for weakness after child birth, constipation, abnormal menstruation,
gastritis, and to reduce fever.
Polyporus umbellatus: In a Chinese clinical study of
146 patients, Polyporus umbellatus was used to decrease the recurrence
of bladder cancer by nearly 50%. It has been useful in the treatment of
urinary tract infections and may limit leukemia cell proliferation. It
is also a potent immune enhancer, antioxidant, anti-bacterial, and lung
and respiratory strengthener.
Aloe Vera: Aloe Vera has been used by nearly every civilization
dating back over 6,500 years to the Egyptians. Aloe is effective at reducing
internal and external inflammation and helping to regulate blood sugar
levels. It is a powerful antioxidant, containing anti-bacterial and anti-viral
nutrients that support the immune system. Garden of Life® uses only
certified organic whole leaf, non-isolate aloe vera gel that is never
pasteurized or preserved.
Uncaria tomentosa: Herbal practitioners around the world
have used Uncaria tomentosa (Cat's Claw) to treat a variety of diseases
and inflammatory conditions including arthritis, AIDS, allergies, dermatological
problems, ulcers, colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, and Crohn's disease.
It further helps to lower blood pressure, reduce inflammation, and prevent
the spread of tumors and viral infections.
The Multi-Compound Approach
Many nutritional immune formulas primarily focus on a single compound
vs. a "multi-compound" approach. We believe however, that the
beneficial effects of these compounds are greatly enhanced when they are
used in combinations, permitting synergistic interactions to occur. RM-10
was
specifically created to be a multi-faceted support system for immune disorders.
For much of the last hundred years science has been searching for a cure
for cancer, arthritis, and even the common cold. Most of the research
has been focused on finding a "magic bullet" in the form of
an antibiotic, vaccine or anti-inflammatory. All the while, inside our
own body lies the most powerful cure for what ails us, our immune system.
The immune system is a person’s primary defense against disease.
Beating Death at 80
At age 77, Rose Menlowe was diagnosed with cancer. After surgical removal
of visible tumors, she declined chemotherapy and radiation, and instead
chose to take responsibility for her own well being. Rose began taking
RM-10 for its ability to significantly boost the immune system,
enhancing her body's own capacity to control normal cell growth. Rose
Menlowe is now cancer-free, and today at age 80, Rose is so full of energy
that she has plans to produce an exercise video for seniors - that's how
well she is!
