"relieve fatigue, keep cholesterol in check, curb high blood pressure, tame inflammation, build stamina, and support the immune system."
That hits on alot of the health problems most Americans are facing today. However there are some other health benifits the author hits on that are very tragic that few Americans face.
" Cancer and the Immune System
Often used as an immune stimulant by people with cancer (as well as HIV), ganoderma has been shown to strengthen immunity as well as combat cancer-cell proliferation. In a 2003 study of 34 people with advanced-stage cancer, for instance, taking ganoderma in supplement form three times daily for 12 weeks led to a significant increase in T-cells (known to play a central role in immune defense).
Lab tests on breast cancer cells, meanwhile, found that combining extracts of ganoderma and green tea heightened the mushroom's ability to slow cancer-cell growth."
Neither I or the author would suggest to negate your doctors medical training for treating such serious conditions, however this is very exciting information. Ganoderma lucidium does so many things, altogether ganoderma does so many amazing things to fight cancer.
