Medicinal Mushrooms

Medicinal mushrooms have been used for many years in the eastern hemisphere of the world. The health properties in Medicinal mushrooms have been known to have many healing qualities that can help many functions of the human body. In fact these healing qualities actually work with the body by boosting the immune system and enhancing the body’s natural ability to heal itself. That’s right, the body was designed to heal itself. The problem is with all these hormonal induced foods, lab created foods and a whole list of other things, the natural ability is weakened and therefore disease and decay sets in. These types of things are very prevalent in the western hemisphere of the globe, but less in other countries. It’s funny because a lot of the ingredients in our everyday food are pretty hard to pronounce and I don’t think that’s a good thing.

Anyway go take a look around the internet about medicinal mushrooms. There are some mushrooms that have been used for many thousands of years and these cultures are learning more and more about the health benefits they possess. One mushroom I know of has 3 active ingredients in it that have enormous benefits attached to it, I’ll list those ingredients for your reading.

These active ingredients include Polysaccharides which stimulate and modulate the immune system. Ganoderic Acid which balance hormones, protects liver, is anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor. Another active ingredient that was identified in medicinal mushrooms was Adenosine which increases wound healing speed, neuro-protective and a coronary vasodilator. These active ingredients cause them to have unmatched benefits such as:

Cardiovascular Health

Digestive Health

Healthy Detox

Immune Health

Increased Vitality

Kidney Health

Liver Health

Mental Clarity

Normal Blood Glucose Levels

Normal Tissue Homeostasis

Reproductive Health

Restful Sleep

Stress Reduction

There is a culture that actually calls one major medicinal mushroom the herb of longevity. This same culture has revered this mushroom for over 5000 years for its part in creating good fortune, happiness, health, beauty and longevity. There is a reason why medicinal mushrooms have been around for many thousands of years and that is because they work. The Medicinal mushroom I’m referring to is the Lingzhi mushroom. This mushroom has many names one being the Reishi mushroom. If you do a little research into these mushrooms you will find that many people have great things to say about them. I know I listed many benefits earlier, but those listed above are only scratching the surface. The Lingzhi mushroom is the most studied mushroom ever.
