    Beta glucans, such as those derived from mushrooms and yeast are touted as immune enhancers.  Maitake D extract is one of the better researched beta glucans.  It's effects on the immune system are very complex, both boosting and lowering various indicators of the immune system based on dosage.  Research with cancer patients is ongoing, so there is really no firm statement on its effects in a cancer treatment context.
