What is Ganoderma
lucidum?
Commonly known as Reishi mushroom, Ganoderma is the most
alkaline food in the world. Its scientific name is Ganoderma lucidum and it is species of red
mushrooms. It has a documented history of over 2,000 years and is the most respected

referred to as “Herb of Spiritual Potency” and the “Ten Thousand Year
Mushroom”. Wealthy people in ancient times used this wonder mushroom in the
hope of obtaining immortality and calmness.
Now this wonder herb
is called the “King of the Herbs”. Ganoderma is believed to promote health and
longevity. It has been long used in Chinese and Japanese medicine for treating
a number of diseases like body aches, cancer, and liver diseases. It is also
prescribed for various psychiatric and neurological diseases.

Ganoderma Mushroom
Benefits for Health:
1. Heart Health:
Researchers in China
and Japan have found that the ganoderic acid present in Ganoderma improves
blood flow and lowers oxygen consumption in the heart muscle. It also lowers
cholesterol and inhibits platelet clumping, which often leads to heart attack
and stroke. Ganoderma prevents the buildup of plaque in the arteries. Plaque
restricts blood flow by narrowing the passage within the arteries, resulting in
atherosclerosis. A study has found that consuming Ganoderma for 2 weeks can
significantly lower blood pressure.
2. Anti-Allergic:
Ganoderma extract can
significantly inhibit different types of allergic reaction, including asthma
and dermatitis. Triterpenes, a compound found in Ganoderma provides anti-viral
and anti-allergic effects. It inhibits the histamine release, making the herb
potentially useful for allergies. Polysaccharides improve the ability of
antibodies to fight bacteria and viruses that cause allergic reaction.
Ganoderma is useful for treating allergies caused due to atopic shock,
dermatitis, hay fever, hives, and food and drug allergies.
3. Healing the Liver:
This potent herb
protects the liver from damage caused due to physical and biological factors.
It also treats alcohol induced fatty liver and cirrhosis. Ganoderma can help
people in the early stages of alcoholic liver diseases especially those who
have not experienced severe loss of liver function. It also helps patients
suffering from hepatitis B and elevated liver enzymes. Hepatitis B is quite
difficult to clear from the body and its recurrence after treatment is high.
The powerful compounds present in Ganoderma accelerate the clearance of drugs
and chemicals stored in the liver. The antioxidants present in Ganoderma
combats the free radicals, promoting liver regeneration.
4. Detoxify the Body:
Ganoderma eliminates
the toxins accumulated in the body due to excess intake of medicines and junk
food. It promotes the efficient synthesis of bile and fatty acids, promoting
faster detoxification of the chemicals from the body. Moreover, it enhances the
body’s ability to take in more than 1.5 times oxygen. Ganoderma rapidly
oxygenates the body and adjusts its pH value. Superoxide
Dismutase is an enzyme naturally present in Ganoderma and it helps in removal
of free radicals from the body.
5. Cure for Kidney
Disease:
Kidney disease
includes chronic nephritis, diabetic renal syndrome, and nephritis. It occurs
due to high blood sugar and cholesterol levels in the body. Overloaded kidney
prevents the blood from reaching the renal capillaries. This causes fatigue,
urine retention and uremia. Ganoderma lowers proteinuria and cholesterolemia,
maintaining proper renal function.
6. Sound Sleep:
Chinese herbalists
have traditionally recommended Ganoderma for its sleep promoting properties.
Regular usage of Ganoderma can promote a slow wave of sleep.
7. Mental Health:
In Japan, dried
Ganoderma is recommended for the treatment of neurosis caused by environmental
stress. A study also found that regular intake Ganoderma can help patients
suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. It provides a calming effect, which is
neither a narcotic nor hypnotic.
8. Muscle Relaxant:
Ganoderma has been
used widely for its muscle relaxing and pain inhibiting properties. It is
believed that the herb can also treat anorexia and debility following a chronic
disease.
9. Immune System:
Ganoderma is very
useful in boosting the body’s immune system. Reishi mushrooms not only
stimulate the immune system, but also regulate it. It regulates metabolic
balance and promotes a synthesis of nucleic acid in the body. Polysaccharides
raise the levels of interferon in the body by promoting the release of protein
from the white blood cells. These white blood cells assist in inhibiting the
spread of diseases. Studies have shown that patients taking Ganoderma show
fewer side effects from chemotherapy and radiation. The post-operative recovery
is also smoother.
10. Ageing:
The polysaccharides in
Ganoderma promote nuclear DNA synthesis and increased cell division, delaying
the onset of ageing. It also contributes to longer life spans. This wonder herb
helps to manage some of the most life threatening age conditions and autoimmune
diseases like cancer and other neurodegenerative diseases.
11. Weight Loss:
Oxygen is very
essential for burning fat for fuel. High levels of oxygen boost the body’s
metabolism, leading to weight loss. It increases the rate at which the body
provides blood to the oxygen, giving you extra energy. Increased energy levels
help you to work out for longer, aiding weight loss.
12. Antioxidants:
Ganoderma is a potent
source of antioxidants. It contains one of the highest sources of antioxidant
found in herbs. Ganoderma lucidum peptide is the most powerful antioxidant
found in this herb. Other antioxidants include polysaccharide, polysaccharide
peptide complex and phenolic components.
13. Cancer:
Ganoderma is touted
for its anti-cancer benefits. It strengthens the immunity and combats cancer
cell proliferation. It stimulates the production of interleukin-2, which helps
to fight several types of cancer. Ganoderic acid, a compound found in Ganoderma,
helps to fight liver cancer. It counteracts suppression by stimulating the
creation of protein in the bone marrow. In a trial, 34 people with advanced
stage cancer were given Ganoderma three times a day for 12 weeks. The results
showed a significant increase in the T-cells.
Lack of oxygen is one
of the major causes of cancer. Cancer cells are known to thrive in
oxygen-depleted environment. Conversely, cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygen
rich environment. Laboratory studies have shown that Ganoderma can prevent
cancer metastasis. It inhibits the migration of cancer cells and angiogenesis.
The extracts of Ganoderma are used in pharmaceuticals to suppress cancer cell
proliferation. Furthermore, combining Ganoderma with green tea augments
its power to retard the growth of cancer cells.
14. Infection:
Ganoderma stimulates
the maturity of immune cells called macrophages, which digest infectious
bacteria. This further prevents the development of secondary infection. It is
also active against yeast infection.
15. Stress:
Ganoderma has been
prescribed since centuries to people suffering from stress and anxiety. It can
effectively reduce emotional outbursts during chronic stress and depression.
Ancient Chinese monks used Reishi mushroom to calm their minds for meditation.
16. Skin Health:
Ganoderma is rich in
antioxidants and it promotes youthful and smooth skin. It rejuvenates the skin
and eliminates damage from pollution and radiation.
17. Urinary Tract
Infection:
Ganoderma can also
provide relief from urinary tract infections. In a study, 88 people suffering
from urinary tract infection were given Ganoderma for 2 weeks. The researchers
found that Ganoderma was significantly superior to placebo in providing relief
from urinary tract infection. It inhibits 5-alpha reductase, an enzyme that
converts testosterone to Dihydrotestosterone. The 5-alpha reductase can lead to
swollen prostate and the health problem that accompanies it. It also improves
urine flow in men with mild to moderate urinary tract symptoms.
18. Inflammation:
Ganoderma extract is
very effective for decreasing post-herpetic pain, which occurs soon after the
herpes lesions heal. A combination of Ganoderma with San Mioa (a mixture of
several Chinese herbs) may help reduce rheumatoid arthritis. It helps to reduce
the swelling associated with rheumatoid arthritis. Ganoderma is also effective
for stiff neck and arms.
19. Blood Sugar:
Ganoderma also
provides blood sugar lowering effect. It contains polysaccharides known as
Ganoderans A, B and C, which provides hypoglycemic effect. It elevates plasma
insulin levels to enhance peripheral tissue utilization and liver metabolism of
glucose.
20. Radiation:
Ganoderma augments the
effects of radiation therapy while acting directly against tumors. It
strengthens the immune system, which helps the body to manage radiation therapy
and chemotherapy. It also eases the symptoms of radiation therapy like nausea,
vomiting, fever, infection, and hair fall and weight loss.
