If you take only one medicinal mushroom, make it Ganoderma. Also known as Red Reishi in Japan or Lingzhi in China, Ganoderma Lucidum is a type of mushroom that's renowned for its fantastic medicinal properties and has been used in traditional medicine throughout Asia for centuries. Documents confirm it's been in use for more than 2000 years.
There are 2 parts to the mushroom, the red fruit body, and the root system.
Reishi Gano or RG capsules contain pure Ganoderma Lucidum powder from the fruit (that's the red disc-like part in the picture).
Ganocelium or GL capsules contain pure Ganoderma Mycelium powder from the root (they're the long straggly bits).
RG contains over 400 different nutrients, while GL contains over 200. So we're talking about some very power-packed capsules.
And just why is this particular mushroom so good for you?
Talk to any practitioner of herbal, traditional and Chinese medicine, or any nutritionalist or naturopath. In their rich armoury, medicinal mushrooms feature strongly. There's a reason for this. Firstly, they're a natural product (well, that stands to reason).
But mostly it's because the nutrient-rich Ganoderma Lucidum medicinal mushroom is the most nutrient-rich of all the medicinal mushrooms.
Ganoderma contains a vast array of Polysaccharides, Organic Germanium, Adenosine, Tripterpines, amino acids, ganoderic acids, anti-oxidants, proteins, vitamins, minerals and enzymes. It's also classed as an adaptogen, which means it can enter and clean toxic cells.
Phew. That's a lot for a single plant. You can see why practitioners and users sing its praises.
The key benefits of Ganoderma reach all parts of the body
More and more clinical research into Ganoderma is confirming what the practitioners of old already knew. That Ganoderma can help reduce the incidence and the effects of many major diseases and conditions.
Here's a snapshot of some of these studies.
- Cardiovascular disease - in inhibiting platelet aggregation and reducing hypertension.
- Immune system - in particular, in cancer research, recording positive immune-modulating effects and reduced side-effects from chemotherapy and radiation.
- Blood sugar balance - with a blood sugar lowering effect, elevation of plasma insulin levels, and enhanced liver metabolism of glucose.
- Anti-inflammatory effects - showing comparable effects to hydrocortisone.
- Liver protector - studies with Hepatitis B Patients found Ganoderma reduced the elevated levels of liver enzymes to normal range.
- Oxygenation - a reduction in altitude sickness by oxygenating the blood.
And here's good news especially if you have a busy lifestyle.
Ganoderma is the most alkaline food in the world. You probably didn't know this, but most of us have bodies that are in a state of acidosis. Sadly, that's not good news. In short, we eat too many acidic foods and drinks too many acidic drinks (even though they may not taste tart).
The body operates at its best and most efficient when in a slightly alkaline state. But acidosis means that instead of being in a peak fighting state, it's fighting with one hand tied behind its back.
Ganoderma helps restore the body's pH balance to it's preferred alkaline state. With regular use, it's back to a fair fight. And with some 150 disease that can't survive in an alkaline body, it's a fight you really want to win.
You may feel fit and healthy now, but what happens when lifestyle catches up?
You'd be living under a rock not to know that chronic disease is on the rise. And the seeds are sown early on. It's just that we don't see it coming.
Diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, obesity and many other conditions are by and large a result of the body's own immune system under stress. The major organs that clean our cells become overloaded with a toxic mass because of lifestyle and eating choices and can't cope. This happens over a number of years. It's disease by stealth.
So the organs have to store those toxins in our cells until they can get around to dealing with them all. Imagine it's a bit like rubbish bins on the street. Unemptied, the bins overflow, and turn nasty. Before you know it, you're dodging and weaving around mess. And the smell! Well, imagine your poor body having to storing up its waste in different parts of you and how inefficient that makes its functioning!
And once the cleaning functions are impaired, there's only one way to go, and that's downhill.
But a lot of this is reversible. Just because you have chronic disease, doesn't necessarily mean you're condemned to have it forever. A change of attitude, diet and lifestyle, together with regular use of Ganoderma can and has been shown to reverse many conditions.
So now you know more about Ganoderma, do you think it could help you too?
As our population ages and the search for good health and long life continues, we are faced with some alarming thoughts. Will we be among the cancer statistics? Will we develop chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease or arthritis? Will we endure diseases that render us unable to do the things we love? Or take us away prematurely?
I have no doubt that the average person in the western world is killing themselves prematurely simply due to what they eat and the lifestyle they follow.
I decided not to settle for being sub-healthy. I decided not to roll over and meekly succumb to aging. I decided that I wanted to tell others about what I'd found.
I've had my own journey of discovery and I'm still on it.
What about you? Will you join me?
