Reishi. Extract standardised to 30%+ of polysacharides; or extract focused on triterpenes (the first has more wide spectrum effects on health, while the latter is more cancer-focused). Reishi can give you a huge boost after chemotherapy and can help you to recover. It is also very good for liver health, better sleep and supports anti-cancer immunity.Pre-treatment might help to sensitise some cancers to the treatment (lapatinib Cubano, 2014; erlotinib Suárez-Arroyo, 2014). It is one of those supplements which is usually possible to take also during chemotherapy, as it has low potential of interactions.
