Answers to top five FAQs about Ganoderma Lucidum

Ganoderma lucidum, as the top medicine in traditional Chinese medicine, is increasingly used for health preservation. However, many people still have doubts when choosing Ganoderma lucidum and Ganoderma lucidum products daily.

“Can people who are not sick eat Ganoderma lucidum?”

“Will eating Ganoderma lucidum make people suffer from excessive internal heat?”

“How do you pick Ganoderma lucidum?

Today, we gave the answers to five frequently asked questions about Ganoderma lucidum!

01

Should Ganoderma lucidum be consumed before or after meals?

Generally, drugs are taken after meals because some drugs (such as antibiotics and analgesics) are often irritating or harmful to the gastric mucosa when taken on an empty stomach. Therefore, it is safer to take drugs after meals.

However, Ganoderma lucidum is recommended to be consumed on an empty stomach (one hour before a meal). First, it can be absorbed more completely, and second, if there is a gastrointestinal problem, it can directly act or help recovery.

(Note: For a small number of patients with gastric disease and duodenal ulcer, if the reaction is too strong after eating Ganoderma lucidum on an empty stomach, they can eat Ganoderma lucidum after a meal in a short period of time, and then resume eating Ganoderma lucidum before a meal after the reaction is over.)

The information comes from the Ganoderma Academic Research and Development Committee (ganoderma.org).

02

Can Ganoderma lucidum be taken with western medicine?

People who take drugs for a long time should eat more Ganoderma lucidum.

Many studies have confirmed that Ganoderma lucidum and western medicine have complementary effects. At the same time, Ganoderma lucidum can reduce the side effects of western medicine and reduce the load of western medicine on the liver. For diabetes, high blood pressure and other diseases, the overall effect of using Ganoderma lucidum in combination with western medicine is far better than taking western medicine alone or taking Ganoderma lucidum alone.

For common diseases such as colds and allergies, Ganoderma lucidum combined with western medicine can also double the efficacy of western medicine. What needs to be reminded is that western medicine is a single chemical component. If it changes chemically with the composition of Ganoderma lucidum, its anti-disease efficacy may be affected. Therefore, there should be an over two-hour interval between taking Ganoderma lucidum and western medicine.

03

Will eating Ganoderma lucidum make people suffer from excessive internal heat?

According to the “Compendium of Materia Medica”, Ganoderma lucidum is mild in nature and suitable for people of any physique.

Although Ganoderma lucidum is mild in nature, due to differences in personal physique, individuals can add different foods for adjustment when taking Ganoderma lucidum. People with internal heat physique are recommended to take chrysanthemum and honey when taking Ganoderma lucidum. People with deficiency-cold physique can add Goji Berry and red dates.

04

Since I am not sick, do I still need to eat Ganoderma lucidum?

According to TCM, inferior doctors treat the full-blown disease. Mediocre doctors treat the disease before it becomes evident. Superior doctors prevent the disease.This concept has something in common with modern western medicine’s emphasis on “prevention is better than cure”. Ganoderma lucidum is a medicine used by superior doctors, and healthy people should eat Ganoderma lucidum.

05

Is “Millennium Ganoderma lucidum” really the top grade of Ganoderma lucidum?

Ganoderma lucidum is an annual fungus. It only takes a year to mature. The so-called “Millennium Ganoderma lucidum” has already passed its maturity stage.

Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies will spray Ganoderma lucidum spores at one-year maturity. At this time, the medicinal value of Ganoderma lucidum is transferred to Ganoderma lucidum spores, so Ganoderma lucidum spores are known as “Ganoderma lucidum essence”.

If you want to directly use Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies as medicine, one-year-old Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies that have just matured are more suitable.

The “Millennium Ganoderma lucidum” has already aged and deteriorated due to its long growth cycle. Ganoderma lucidum that grows in the wild cannot get carefully cultivated and taken care of. If the growth time is too long, the quality of wild Ganoderma lucidum will decrease. Wild Ganoderma lucidum is also prone to insect-eaten risks, and some even contain toxins. Therefore, there is a “shelf life” for the medicinal value of Ganoderma lucidum.

There are many kinds of Ganoderma lucidum products on the market, and their quality is also uneven. How can we choose the top-grade Ganoderma lucidum? It is mainly distinguished from the following three aspects:

  • Shape of fruiting body: The fruiting bodies of the top grade Ganoderma lucidum are regular, full, thick and without insect-eaten traces;
  •  Hand feeling: The top grade Ganoderma lucidum has a hard texture and has a certain weight in the hand;
  • Smell: The top-grade Ganoderma lucidum emits the uniquely rich and pure fragrance of Ganoderma lucidum.
