PAUL STAMETS FROM OHIO WAS ALWAYS INTERESTED IN MUSHROOMS. I HEARD HIM SPEAK AT OUR LSRGE CONFERENCE HERE CALLED BIONEERS. HE BECAME SERIOUS ABOUT THEM WHEN HE WAS IN COLLEGE AND GRADUATED FROM THE EVERGREEN STATE COLLEGE IN OLYMPIA. HE STARTED HIS OWN COMPANY WHICH IS NOW WELL KNOWN AS IT RESEARCHES THE WAY A LARGE FUNGUS CALLED AGRARIKON. IT IS VERY ACTIVE AGAINST A RARE TYPE OF TB THAT IS RESISTANT TO ANY OTHER DRUGS KNOWN! IT ALSO IS RESISTANT TO MANY FLU VIRUSES, INCLUDING BIRD FLU. HE HAS BUILT AN EXTENSIVE COLLECTION OF WILD MUSHROOM CULTURES FROM THE FORESTS OF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST.
HE TESTED OYSTER MUSHROOMS TO RESTORE A DIESEL SOAKED PATCH OF SOIL. IT BROKE DOWN 95% OF THIS OIL! IT WAS ALSO FOUND TO BE GOOD AT BREAKING DOWN AN ILLEGAL CHEMICAL WEAPON. HIS DISCOVERIES STILL MARVEL THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY AS HIS MUSHROOM HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO SOLVE ENVIRONMENTAL AS WELL AS MEDICAL PROBLEMS.
I WAS TRUELY AMAZED AT HIS PRESENTATIONS AND I KNOW THERE IS HOPE FOR CLEANING UP OUR CHEMICAL DUMPS, ETC.
