Oh those fantastic fungi …. the mysterious power of mushrooms has been immortalized in the 2018 award winning documentary bearing the same name, a time-lapse journey about the magical, mysterious and medicinal world of fungi and its power to heal, sustain and contribute to the regeneration of life on Earth.

Five years ago I became vegetarian. When I lived in Bali I pushed myself even further to veganism and further yet to raw veganism. A year ago I started craving fish. This craving was coupled with a feeling of lethargy and weakness. So I became pescatarian (a vegetarian who eats fish). Last week I had an appointment with a periodontist to address an onset of rather rapid gum recession. He looked at my gums and told me I was likely anemic.
