“Radiotherapy and chemotherapy” has always gotten both praise and blame. 한편으로는, radiotherapy and chemotherapy has helped countless people kill cancer cells in their bodies and prolong their lives. 하지만, the result of “inflicting damage on the enemy while one’s own side suffers a smaller but comparable level of damage” also made the patient weak and painful.
How to alleviate the suffering of patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy? How to make patients live with better quality during radiotherapy and chemotherapy? This has been an important topic in the field of cancer therapy.
The side effects of chemotherapy cannot be avoided. But now we have a variety of ways to reduce the side effects of chemotherapy.
오늘, TCM is an important addition to cancer treatment regimens. The combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine greatly reduces the side effects of chemotherapy.
The life of cancer patients can be prolonged with high quality through the efficacy of 영지버섯 to strengthen healthy qi and eliminate pathogens.
In the expert live broadcast room of the third “Co-construction & Sharing for the Health of All” public welfare action, Jian Du, a nationally famous Chinese medicine doctor, said, “Today we advocate the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. Its effect is better. The quality of life of patients can be improved better. Their life expectancy can be prolonged. He shared “the healthy-energy-strengthening, clearing and resolving prescription”, a clinical application of Reishi mushroom in cancer prevention and treatment. “After radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the prescription can be used to achieve the effects of strengthening healthy qi and preventing metastasis and recurrence.” This prescription includes 30g of Astragalus, 30g의 영지버섯, 15g의 Fructus Ligustri Lucidi, 15g의 Dioscorea opposita, 30g의 Hedyotis diffusa and 30g of Prunella vulgaris.
President Jian Du, a nationally famous Chinese medicine doctor, shared “the healthy-energy-strengthening, clearing and resolving prescription” in the live broadcast room.
It can be seen that Reishi mushroom is of great benefit to cancer patients in terms of strengthening healthy qi after surgery.
~ 안에 2010, Professor Jianhua Xu and Professor Peng Li from the School of Pharmacy of Fujian Medical University used 영지버섯 fruiting bodies as raw materials to obtain two components of 영지버섯 triterpenoids (GLA and GLE) through ethanol extraction and fed them to experimental animals with cancer, respectively. It was observed that 영지버섯 triterpenoids not only inhibited tumor growth but also
prolonged the survival time of mice with tumors after treatment.
And the prolongation time is positively correlated with the previous dose of GLE consumption, which is also strong evidence for us to suggest that Reishi mushroom should be taken in large doses for a long time to be more effective.
What is the principle behind the synergistic and attenuating effects of영지버섯 in the adjuvant treatment of tumors?
“According to the standards of anti-tumor drugs, Reishi mushroom cannot treat tumors, 그리고 영지버섯 plays the role of adjuvant treatment of tumors.”
Professor Zhibin Lin from Peking University Health Science Center shared the popular science of how 영지버섯 helps to treat tumors in the live broadcast room of the big doctor.
“Radiotherapy, chemotherapy or targeted therapy, combined with eating 영지버섯, can play a role in enhancing effects and reducing toxicity. 게다가, 영지버섯 polysaccharide is an effective ingredient to enhance anti-tumor immunity. 영지버섯 can strengthen the production of dendritic cells and T lymphocytes. 일반적으로 말하면, 영지버섯 achieves anti-tumor effects through the immune mechanism.”
The picture is taken from the theme sharing content of Professor Zhibin Lin’s “Ganoderma lucidum and Tumor“.
“At the same time, 영지버섯 can also protect the gastrointestinal tract and reduce the symptoms of nausea and vomiting. During radiotherapy and chemotherapy, it is generally necessary to take liver-protecting and repairing drugs at the same time, 그리고 영지버섯 can play an overall protective role by increasing efficacy and reducing toxicity”.
Only 영지버섯 with stable quality extracted by mature technology can contribute to the quality of life of patients who live with cancer every day.
The above series of research results are obtained on the basis of stable active ingredients of 영지버섯.
The stability of active ingredients is closely related to the source of raw materials of영지버섯 and the extraction process of영지버섯. Stable quality requires standardized control of each planting and production process.
When all these conditions are met, it is possible to transform the “goodness” of Reishi mushroom into longer life of cancer patients, and it is possible to instill more hope for patients to live with cancer.
