Healing Effects of Ganoderma on Diabetes
Diabetes is a disease cause by poor blood sugar regulation. There are 2 types of diabetes. One is due to a lack of insulin production, which is a hormone secreted by the pancreas - its function is to regulate blood sugar. The other one is usually adult onset, and is due to insulin resistance. The second type is usually related to poor nutrition, obesity and lack of exercise.
Extract of Ganoderma Lucidum has been found to be effective in reducing the blood glucose level after two months of treatments. It enhance glucose utilization because it increased the plasma insulin level in normal and glucose loaded mice, but did not affect the insulin binding to isolated adipocytes. The hypoglycaemic activity of Ganoderma Lucidum is thus due to an increase of the plasma insulin level and an acceleration of glucose metabolism occuring not only in the peripheral tissues but also in the liver.
Healing Effects of Ganoderma on Hypertension
High blood pressure or hypertension is defined in an adult as blood pressure greater than 140 mm Hg systolic pressure or greater than 90 mm Hg diastolic pressure. It can be dangerous. It can cause heart failure. When hypertension is untreated for a long term, it can either burst blood vessels or cause them to gradually narrow and become blocked. In both situations, blood flow stops. Depending on which blood vessels are affected, it may cause stroke, heart attack, kidney failure or even blindness.
Ganoderma Lucidum has been found to be effective on lowering highblood pressure. This is due to the presence of lanostane derivatives especially ganoderic acids B, D, F, H, K, S and Y which exert their hypotensive activities. The Triterpenes content of Ganoderma Lucidum effectively clears blood vessel blockage by reducing accumulated fatty substances such as cholesterol and triglycerides. While the Adenosine Monophosphate (AMP) can dissolve thrombus (blood clot) and further helps to remove blood vessel blockage.
Healing Effect of Ganoderma on Hepatitis B
Studies show that Ganoderma Lucidum is effective in the treatment of Hepatitis B. When extract of Ganoderma Lucidum is administered concurrently with glutathione against liver damage by carbon tetrachloride, it proved to be beneficial against hepatic necrosis and hepatitis. It was also discoverd that extract of Ganoderma could probably augment the rate of toxin transformation and subsequent bile excretion, therby acting as a detoxicant and protectant to our liver.
Healing Effect of Ganoderma on Acne
Ganoderma Lucidum detoxifies blood and liver. It has strong detoxification ability with its high content of Organic Germanium and other minerals. If you have constipation, your intestines will absorb toxics from the feces back into your body. These toxics can circulate to various body parts through blood circulation. Toxic substances on blood may certainly cause Acne. The Organic Germanium present in Ganoderma Lucidum helps to detoxify these toxics. That is why taking Ganoderma Lucidum helps to make your skin smoother.
Healing Effect of Ganoderma on Cancer
The anti-cancer agents in Ganoderma are the Polysaccharides and Organic Germanium. The Polyshaccharide fraction of Ganoderma is largely responsible for its anti-tumor efficacy. Indications for Ganoderma use in cancer include supplementation a) to reduce side-effects during chemotherapy or radiotherapy, b) to prolonging survival and minimize metastasis, c) to improve quality of life, and d) to prevent occurrence or recurrence.
Healing Effect of Ganoderma on Prostate Disease
As men age, there is a normal increase in the size of the prostate. This can lead to a decrease in the normal urinary outflow, frequent night-time urination, and other prostate problems. In addition, advanced age significantly increases the incidence of prostate cancer. The prostate specific antigen blood test is increased in both conditions, and it is used to screen, detect, and monitor prostatic disease, including prostate cancer treatment. There is evidence that Ganoderma Lucidum, when combined with other herbs, can significantly reduce Prostate Specific Antigen levels. The mechanism is unknown, but it can occur as early as one month after treatment.
Healing Effect of Ganoderma on HIV and AIDS
Anti-HIV substances and protease inhibitors (a major class of drugs used to treat HIV/AIDS) have been found in Ganoderma Lucidum. There is anecdotal evidence that it lowers the viral load and increases the CD4 counts.
Healing Effect of Ganoderma on Asthma and Allergies
Ganoderma Lucidum has shown some benefits in those suffering from asthma, chronic bronchitis, and common allergies. It blocks the mediators of inflammation, symptoms of asthma can be alleviated, and by boosting the immune system, colds and flu's are reduced, leading to less exacerbations of asthma. Ganoderma Lucidum products have been used as an anti-tussive to suppress persistent coughing, and it is used as an expectorant to loosen up secretions. It is thought that Ganoderma Lucidum may even enhance the regeneration of tracheal and small airway epithelium - particularly important in patients who smoke and suffer from chronic bronchitis (smokers'
cough).
Healing Effect of Ganoderma Lucidum on Hyper Susceptibility
When the body is invaded by an antigen that ellicits an immunological reactions and results the various abnormality and immuno-pathological symptoms, Ganoderma lucidum can be used to suppress the reactions and resume the body order. The experiment shows that Ganoderma lucidum can stop the release of hyper susceptible factors and prevent the development of allergic reactions. Therefore, Ganoderma lucidum is relatively more effective over other current medicines when treating the illnesses caused by abnormal hyper-reactivity or autoimmunity such as allergic asthma, erythematous lupus vulgaris, rheumatoic arthritis, rheumatoic heart diseases, allergic rhinitis, skin diseases, etc. Ganoderma lucidum can also help to cure the toxification patients as the result of pro-longed usage of hormones.
Healing Effect of Ganoderma Lucidum on Neurasthenia
In Chinese medication, Ganoderma lucidum has been used to treat neurasthenia and insomnia since it works on the central nervous system. Extract from Ganoderma lucidum can inhibit and reduce the level of body activity. This inhibitory effect is quantitative and is helpful for resuming the order of activity level. The fact that Ganoderma lucidum can delay the death as the result of over-dosage of a central stimulant such as caffeine demonstrates shows that Ganoderma lucidum works on the central nervous system by applying an inhibitory effect.
In ancient Chinese medical publications, Ganoderma lucidum can serve to "stabilize emotion", "increase wisdom", and "enhance memory power". Recently, it is reported that Ganoderma lucidum has prominent effect on insomnia caused by neurasthenia: Effectiveness is 87.14% to 100%.In general, effect becomes obvious after a period of 10 to 15 days, when sleep improved, appetite increased, and body weight gained. Related headache and dizzy will be reduced or stopped. Ganoderma lucidum has a relatively strong effect on the central nervous system that makes Ganoderma lucidum an effective substance for treatment of neurasthenia and insomnia. Ganoderma lucidum is becoming more and more indispensable to the sufferers of neurasthenia and insomnia. To date, the effect of Ganoderma lucidum on neurasthenia and insomnia has been clearly described and stated in the China State pharmacopoeia.
