Ling Zhi (Reishi Mushroom or Ganaderma)
Ling
Zhi (LZ) was reported in ancient Chinese material medica
Shen Long Ben Tso and Ben tsa Gang Mu
as a superior herb with many health benefits that could
be used for an extended period of time without any harm.
China
and Japan have used LZ to treat various sicknesses for over
4,000 years. They are, to name a few, heptopathy, hepatitis,
nephritis, hypertension, arthritis, neurasthenia, insomnia,
asthma, bronchitis, gastric ulcers, cancer and many degenerative
diseases.
Extensive scientific study in China, Japan, Taiwan and Korea,
in the past 30 years have yielded a wealth of knowledge
about LZs chemical constituents, and pharmacology
which leads to practical medical applications.
The
major chemical components found in LZ are: polysaccharide,
triterpene, steroid alkaloid, glyco-protein, protein, nucleotide,
sulfur compounds and fatty acid. These materials result
in the following pharmacological actions: immunostimulating/modulating,
anticancer, tumor inhibiting, histamine release inhibitors,
platelet aggregation inhibitor, antiallergerical, antihepatoxic,
antihypertensive, cholesterol synthesis inhibitor, cardio-tonic,
hypoglycemic, muscle relaxant, analgesic, antibacterial,
and antiviral activities.
In
the past 20 years, various clinical studies in China, Japan,
Taiwan, and Russia have concluded its therapeutic efficacy
in treating allergy, asthma, bronchitis, neurasthenia, insomnia,
hepatitis, high cholesterol and triglycerides, coronary
heart disease, elevation disease, and as a diuretic/laxative.
The toxicity of LZ has been shown to be very low. Based
on customers feedback, favorable reactions on many
of the above benefits were realized.
