Lingzhi mushrooms: medicinal properties, application. Reviews of doctors and patients

The hope for the miracle and mystery of Eastern civilization in recent years has made very popular different drugs from China or Thailand. Among them, the most famous mushrooms are lingzhi, which are attributed to truly magical properties. And a certain curative effect of them is noted even by skeptics and critics. And certain positive influences are recognized even by traditional medicine. In the end, it's hardly reasonable to reject the development of medicine men and herbalists right away: it was thanks to them that mankind survived for many centuries, as science developed and accumulated knowledge coupled with modern medicine.

What is lingzhi

The scientific name of the fungus is lacquered. Among Korean and Chinese healers, he has been respected for thousands of years. The very name "lingzhi" from Chinese translates as "plant of immortality". The Japanese treated him with great respect and called the mushroom of spiritual power ("Reishi"). In nature, this trumpet is difficult to find - it is whimsical to the conditions of growth. Therefore, the healers who found its thickets, kept them in great secret: the plantations where the Lingzhi mushrooms multiply became an invaluable dowry and could provide a comfortable existence for several generations. They cost more than gold of similar weight. And until 1972, until the secret of the greenhouse cultivation of the ganoderma was discovered, it was available only to very rich people. True, traditional healers do not approve of the "artificial" mushroom lynchzhi: the medicinal properties of it, they believe, do not gain full strength due to certain restrictions on the conditions of growth. However, from a scientific point of view, the greenhouse tinder does not differ from that grown in the wild.

What cures Reishi

Mushroom lingzhi: reviews of doctors

Official medicine, as you know, is very wary of the favorite drugs and methods of the people. However, she was supportive of the tinder. "Offices" are recognized as three features that the Chinese mushroom lingzhi. In this regard, the opinions of doctors are unanimous:

• Reishi is definitely non-toxic;
• The tartmaker has no side effects, and this is an extremely rare phenomenon;
• Ganoderma has a complex effect, and does not treat any particular organ.

Thanks to such qualities, Chinese doctors, representatives of traditional medicine, in some cases recommend the use of mushrooms lingzhi along with medications as maintenance therapy.

Rules of admission

Immediately say: no matter how good is the mushroom of lingzhi, healers' warnings about it are warned that this means should not be taken as a panacea for all ills. In addition to using drugs based on the tinder, it is worth listening to the recommendations of the doctor, do not forget about proper nutrition and healthy lifestyle. If the body is continually to be destroyed, then no miracle remedy will save it. Moreover, one should remember the reasonable use of any folk remedies and preparations, to which, undoubtedly, the mushroom of lingzhi also belongs. Its use will be effective only if you take the drug for a long time - at least six months.

It is worth noting that usually in the package is an instruction regulating the mode of use. And in most cases, there it is suggested to take 2 tablets (capsules) three times a day. However, people familiar with the principles of Tibetan medicine, such prescriptions are called questionable: gradualness and smoothness are welcomed in it. So to start better, they said, from one tablet twice a day, a week later go to two on the same schedule, and only after - to receive the recommendations of the manufacturer.

Do not also eat mushrooms lingzhi after four o'clock in the afternoon. They greatly stimulate physical activity, which can lead to insomnia or night anxiety.

Who should be careful?

As such contraindications, the mushroom lingzhi extract does not. However, some restrictions are still imposed, as in the case of using any drug.

1. At significant gestation periods, the volume of drug taken should be reduced. The maximum allowed is one capsule per day. To inflict damage on the fetus or the health of the future mother, the mushrooms of lingzhi are not able, but can provoke the purification of the body, which will complicate the course of pregnancy.
2. If the patient has had a hemorrhagic stroke, the drug is only allowed six months after it. The ischemic variant allows the onset of immediate treatment.
3. Do not take the extract of the fungus lingzhi for too long: you can "dilute" your body, and it will shift all its protective functions to the drug. Sometimes the immune system should remember that she is supposed to work. So between the courses healers recommend taking long breaks. It is necessary.

And do not forget that there is such trouble as individual intolerance. If the mushrooms of lingzhi are new to you, introduce them into the diet gradually, listening to your sensations.

Mushrooms against cancer

Let's pay attention to the specific directions of using the tinder. Almost at the official level, a high anti-tumor effect of lingzhi is recognized. Fungi contain two components that resist cancer. The first is active anti- oncological polysaccharides, which activate macrophages and stimulate the activity of T-lymphocytes. Both those and others are a powerful obstacle for the formation of metastases and are detrimental to existing cancer cells. The second assistant is terpenoids. They prevent the accumulation of free radicals, thereby not allowing the tumor to form.

Of course, as the only means of combating cancer, lingzhi mushrooms can hardly be recommended, since the disease is very dangerous and insidious. However, a number of studies have convincingly proved: if once a year to use the course extract of ganoderma, you can protect yourself from the appearance of tumors. So, in terms of prevention, the Reishi is uniquely successful. In the process of treatment, the supporting course effectively localizes tumors, slows their development and facilitates the overall condition of the patient.

Say allergies "No!"

The antimicrobial effect is based on the antimicrobial abilities that the lingzhi mushroom extract possesses. The responses of patients and doctors in this regard are consistent: the tinder does not inhibit the activity of microbes, but kills the microorganisms themselves. In parallel, all types of human metabolism improve. Of course, the treatment of allergies with the help of Reishi - the process is protracted and will take at least a year, but rather, even two. But, according to practitioners of Oriental medicine, it is not accompanied by any side manifestations, and the allergy is gone forever. And together with its consequences like bronchial asthma or atopic dermatitis.

Fighting Diabetes

Responsible for it are the polysaccharides included in the lineage, called Ganoderan A, B and C. The protein front acts together with them. They naturally equalize the sugar content in the blood and maintain it at the desired level. According to experts, a huge advantage of the extract of this fungus is that it can be used constantly because it does not accumulate in the human body and does not carry any side effects. In pluses you can write and the impossibility of an overdose. In addition, the admission pass will not immediately affect your health, since the previous doses have a prolonged effect. Another bonus is the improvement in tissue healing. As is known, diabetics often suffer even from small wounds, which overgrow with great difficulty. Preparations that are based on fungi lingzhi, accelerate and establish this process. Another beneficial effect of the extract is the gradual adjustment of the metabolic rate to the patient. As a result, it is possible to avoid a huge number of typical complications caused by these disorders and characteristic of diabetes mellitus.

Lingzhi in cosmetology

Once a trumpet is a "fungus of immortality", it means that he must transfer these qualities to the appearance of a person, well, at least to some extent. Chinese cosmetologists widely use it to create miracle creams for the skin. Experts say that the ganoderma prevents the penetration of destructive free radicals into the epithelium, stabilizes the synthesis of the necessary nucleic acids and reduces the intensity of natural oxidation processes at the desired level. As a result, the aging of the skin is slowed down, the cell division increases, the regeneration of the covers returns the skin to a young condition. The testimonies of people who have experienced the effect of the fungus on them, emphasize that the skin becomes noticeably more elastic, fine wrinkles are smoothed out, and the age-related ones become less deep. In parallel, its color improves, the pores become narrower. As a result, the skin becomes smoother and healthier in appearance.

Slimming trutovik

This direction most of all spoiled the reputation of the healing fungus in the eyes of the international (and Russian including) society. Nevertheless, the mushroom lingzhi for weight loss is used quite actively. Actually, he must, in theory, go in several directions at once. First, suppress the appetite, resulting in the first week should reduce food consumption. Secondly, normalize and stimulate the work of the liver, which due to this will more effectively split the incoming nutrients into the body. Third, to accelerate the metabolism, including in the scope of its existing fat layer, which should actually burn under the influence of the Reishi.

Judging by the feedback, to achieve the desired effect, you can go three ways:

1. To use infusion of fungus. The mashed triton is poured with warm water at the rate of half a cup to a teaspoon and in a shaken state is drunk with a volley (three times over a light day).
2. Napar. Two spoons of chopped lingzhi are poured into a glass of boiling water and are soaked in a water bath for a quarter of an hour. The drug is taken before eating on a large spoon.
3. Ready-made capsules are, by the way, the easiest, but least approved by healers way. Drink the drug three times, before each meal, with a little water. And no less than half an hour before you take the spoon.

Already there are quite a few people who used mushroom lingzhi for weight loss. Reviews passed a similar course is far from unambiguous. However, the enthusiastic could not be found. Promised 20 kilograms for two months, no one lost, and the loss of three can be attributed to the effect of placebo. Decreased appetite was noted insignificant. And, maybe, it is caused by the memory of how much the extract of the fungus lingzhi treated. Metabolic changes, if they occurred, can not be measured at home. In a word - solid disappointment.

On the other hand, the same can be said about any means for losing weight. Those who want to lose extra pounds somehow lose sight of the fact that taking tablets / capsules / extracts must be accompanied by active motions, without which the released energy can not be spent on anything. And the manufacturer's instructions to the need for sports or just regular walks, most of us are neglected. So is it worth it in this case to call the fact that the mushroom lingzhi (for weight loss supposedly - the most it!) Did not provide the desired result? Yet without the slightest effort on the part of the owner, with the help of only "magic tablets," the body is unlikely to be able to lose weight.
