Organo Gold Mycelium Ganoderma Lucidum
ORGANO’s Ganoderma production is organic, which means that our spores powder contains 99% more open spores than other companies who harvest their Ganoderma in plastic bags.
Ganoderma mushrooms have extremely delicate spores. They are only available in their natural cycle and can be collected using brushes. Their fine powder resembles that of baby powder.
What is Ganoderma Lucidum?
Ganoderma lucidum, known in Chinese culture as Reishi or Lingzhi and used to promote wellness, vitality and immunity in humans, has been part of traditional Asian medicines for many years.
Ganoderma is a mushroom that is commonly used in modern medicine. It acts as a stimulant, as well as an immune booster, due to the anti-inflammatory antiviral antioxidant properties. This mushroom also has the ability to directly stimulate natural killer cells in humans, increasing their activity and stimulating directly.
Ganoderma has also been shown to possess anti-depressant, analgesic, and antibacterial properties; used for treating hepatitis, bronchitis and other infectious diseases; it also acts as an immunomodulator which has been utilized in treating fibromyalgia patients.
Reishi mushrooms, which are part of the Ganodermataceae (basidiomycetes) family, have been used by Traditional Chinese Medicines for centuries to improve health and longevity. Reishi contains a number of bioactive components such as polysaccharides triterpenes proteins and polysaccharides with diverse biological activities. These include anti-inflammatory, diabetes treatment and immunomodulatory. Studies also indicate the possibility that Ganoderic Acid A may exert various biological activities including anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory and diabetic treatments1.
Reishi mushrooms are a key component of many natural products available worldwide, particularly those manufactured and distributed in Japan, China and mushroom tea for inflammation Korea. Reishi is widely used in skincare, food and traditional medicine. It also appears in supplements and dietary drinks in North America.
Reishi, an immune stimulant, is composed of more than 100 oxygenated triterpenes. It has been studied to see if it can boost immunity by stimulating natural killer cells. Reishi is also antiviral, antiinflammatory, and wound-healing. It also reduces liver oxidative stress. Reishi has also been shown to protect rats against radiation-induced and chemotherapy-induced toxicities.
How is Ganoderma Lucidum produced?
Ganoderma, also known as red reishi or “red reishi”, is one of many species. This bracket or’shelf fungus’ has an attractive, reddish brown hue. It can grow to over 40 inches long, wide, and 4 inch thick. This adaptogenic fungus is cultivated to provide healing benefits. There are over 400 species in Ganoderma, a vast genus. Among them, applanatum and Lucidum are the most popular.
Ganoderma – also known as Reishi or Ganoderma by East Asian cultures – is a polypore fungal species that belongs to the Polyporales family of basidiomycota. It has long been cultivated to enhance immunity and improve health. Reishi reduces stress, increases longevity, and increases sexual vigilance. This reishi product combines powders, capsules and extracts.
This study’s purpose was to establish optimal growth parameters for G. lucidum using potato dextrose agar (PDA) plates and slants. Our results showed mycelial growth increased with increasing incubation temperatures until 30degC. Then it peaked at that temperature and then declined.
Worldwide, medicinal mushrooms are valued for their positive effects on health. Ganoderma lucidum has been a popular mushroom variety for many years. It is valued by its many health advantages and is known as the red or “king” of medicinal mushrooms.
Reishi is used in Chinese medicine to treat hypertension, insomnia, and other conditions. The fungus may contain active compounds such as triterpenes, polysaccharides and other polysaccharides that contribute to its medicinal properties.
Reishi mushrooms thrive best on hardwood trees like oak, birch, beech and alder trees but can also be found growing wild along hedges and parkwaysides. Reishi has been used as medicine for over 4000 years as it is recognized for its health-strengthening, anti-inflammatory and immune-supportive qualities as well as being rich in minerals such as iron potassium and zinc.
Why is Ganoderma Lucidum useful?
Ganoderma Lucidum, especially its polysaccharide Beta-glucans, is well-known for its immune-enhancing properties and antioxidant properties. This powerful medicinal has also been shown to protect against oxidative stress.
Maca, as an adaptogen, is a powerful source of balance and comfort during stressful times, thanks to the beta-glucans that it contains. Beta-glucans boost immune functions, while also promoting circulation health.
Reishi (also known as Rei Sheng in Japanese) is widely believed by many to have anti-inflammatory and endurance-enhancing properties. It also helps with fatigue, depression and improves sleep quality.
Ganoderma Lucidum is a powerful anti-cholesterol agent. It contains peptides, which can lower blood cholesterol levels and triglyceride. It also contains polysaccharides such as triterpenes or beta-glucans. These polysaccharides contain triterpenes or beta-glucans. They can decrease LDL (bad cholesterol) and increase HDL levels.
Both forms of G. Lucidum extracts (ethanolic or water-soluble) have many of the same beneficial compounds as water-soluble ones. However, due to ethanolic extraction’s inability to separate triterpenes or polysaccharides for maximum efficacy, it is wise to combine both forms for maximum benefits.
Studies have shown that G. Lucidum can inhibit adipocytes differentiation and produce hypoglycaemic effect, as well promote immune function to enhance resistance against diseases. Reishi contains polysaccharides which have also shown efficacy in this regard.
Ganoderma lumidum is unique due to the growing conditions. The harvesting process can be a challenge: to get 1 kg from 1,000kg spores, you need to harvest 1,000kg! Furthermore, mushrooms for longevity collecting them without crushing requires special techniques – so naturally it’s one of the more expensive supplements on the market! ORGANO has mastered this process, so that you can enjoy its incredible health benefits through our supplements.
What is best way to take Ganoderma?
Water-soluble Ganoderma Lucidum Extracts can maximize the benefits. Water-soluble extracts are less concentrated than ethanolic ones, but they retain more of the beneficial compounds. They are also easier to digest.
Our water-soluble Reishi mushroom extract combines spores with mycelium, and the lucidum hat into a potent blend that offers maximum benefits and unique health properties. Each part offers unique properties and health advantages: for instance spores contain high concentrations of antioxidants to support immune health while mycelium serves as a network of cells connecting them together – known for antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral properties; finally the Lucidum cap contains powerful polysaccharides and triterpenes known to reduce inflammation and support healthy liver function.
Reishi mushrooms are available in many forms. Some people use them directly in their cooking while others take powdered supplements or capsules containing the mushroom. It has been proven to help treat a variety of conditions, ranging from arthritis and cancer to high blood pressure and chronic fatigue syndrome.
Reishi has been shown to increase energy levels, lower cholesterol levels and protect the heart against damage. Studies have also shown that its benefits can relieve anxiety and depression. Reishi’s Polysaccharides may be immunostimulatory as they help to promote proliferation of splenic Mononuclear Cells, Natural Killer (NK) cells, and Dendritic Cells – thus providing multiple health benefits.
Organo Gold’s approach to mushroom culture is natural, resulting in more Ganodermaspores which are used for its Poudre des Spores Ganoderma. The mushrooms produced using plastic bags are rarer and therefore worth less. Our Ganoderma spores, which look similar to fine rice powder and can only be harvested during their natural lifecycle of mushroom reproduction and cannot be reproduced through artificial means. One kilogram of our prized Reishi mushroom powder is made from 1,000kg of this special spore-powder!
