Experimental Evidence of Ganodermas Potential in Cancer Treatment
by Raymond Y. Chang, Meridian medical Group at the Institute of East-West Medicine and Department of Medicine, Cornell Medical College
August 30, 2009
From a theoretical point of view, it is important to note that other fungal polysaccharides of comparable structure and function as those found in Ganoderma have undergone rigorous clinical trials, including Lentinan, Sizofilan, PSK (Krestin), PSP. Since it is now increasingly clear that immunostimulatory bioactivity from most beta-glucan based compounds function via a similar beta-glucan receptor (Czop 1985), it has been possible to hypothesize that Ganoderma polysaccharides should function similarly (Chang, 1996). Clinical effects of various glucan based BRMs should therefore be comparable. Results from Lentinan, Sizofilan, PSK and PSP human trials demonstrated the efficacy of these glucan BRMs in prolonging survival in recurrent or advanced gastric and colon cancer, lung cancer and gynecological cancers, Data from such bioactively comparable compounds all suggest improved quality of life or survival for cancer patients may be possible with Ganoderma supplementation ...

As a supplement for cancer patients to enhance survival and reduce likelihood of metastasis. While only anecdotal data exists that ganoderma supplementation may enhance survival of cancer patients, this survival advantage has been demonstrated for a number of comparable glucan BRMs ...
As a supplement for cancer patients to improve quality of life. Again, only anecdotal information exists for Ganoderma in this situation but other oral glucan derivatives such as PSP has been found to be useful in improving quality of life in cancer patients (Yao 1993). Significantly, Ganoderma supplementation was noted to decrease pain in cancer patients (Kupin 1994) ...

Keeping well with Ganoderma
July 23, 2009
Understanding that Ganoderma is not a cure but rather a
natural health supplement is important. This is a remedy
that can work small miracles however it will take time for
the supplement to kick in. The reason why Ganoderma is
considered to be a natural health supplement rather than a
medicine is because it should be used to boost general
health rather than one specific ailment. Quickly gaining
popularity in the United States and Australia, Ganoderma
can be a great compliment to other medicines you may be
taking by aiding your body's natural immune system, making
it more receptive to medicines you put in your body. In
other words, Ganoderma will make your body function better
to fight on illness and disease ...
Preliminary results show that Ganoderma may even be helpful
in the fight against cancer, if used properly with the
medicines prescribed by the doctor. The damage that
chemotherapy can cause your body can take a long time to
recover from. This is where Ganoderma steps in. Ganoderma
can help your body out with the good cells that are damaged
and make the recovery time shorter improving your chances
of survival. Ganoderma may also be able to take away some
of the negative side effects of radiation, reducing the
damage done by chemotherapy. So as you can see, Ganoderma
is not a cure, but more of an aid to the body's natural
wellness ...

Talking about Ganoderma Lucidum
June 21, 2009
I discover that with regular use of Ganoderma Lucidum, it can prevent many health problems and provide health benefits that may lasts forever. But in order to have this lasting health benefit, we should also make some changes in our lifestyle and improve some of our habits to suit the body system. Taking Ganoderma Lucidum and abusing our body at the same time will not show effective outcomes. We should also remember that in some aspect, Ganoderma Lucidum only PROVIDES, HELPS, PREVENT and ENHANCES substances that will help our body. A misinformed user of Ganoderma Lucidum has unrealistic expectations from it and when he is not able to get 100% results as per his expectations in a time frame, he ignores all the other health benefits and starts under estimating its power.

Mushrooms Used as Medicines throughout History
by Dr. Markho Rafael
June 15, 2009
5,300 years ago, an injured and starving man from Val Venosta, Italy, fled across an Alpine glacier to escape pursuers. But his enemies caught up with him and with a practiced arrow-shot penetrated his shoulder blade and subclavian artery. Before long, he was dead from blood loss. “Oetzi the Iceman” was found mummified in 1991. On his person were pouches containing mushroom remedies, the oldest known proof in existence of medicinal mushrooms usage.
There is good reason to believe he carried both of these mushrooms along as natural remedies. Whipworm parasite eggs were found in Oetzi’s intestines. Birch polypore mushroom Piptoporus betulinus is a traditional de-worming remedy. The other mushroom in his possession, Tinder fungus (Fomes fomentarius), may have been used to cauterize the wound on his right hand.
