Some of research in Japan indicates that those that have taken Ganoderma for over a year visit to doctors dropped into half. There are thousands of research paper available including on internet on subject of healing breakthroughs achieved by Ganoderma in various treatments and too lengthy to discuss here. However we can highlight research in short.

Summarized from these reports, it is found that Lingzhi have following properties:

Improves cholesterosis, coronary insufficiency.

Improves hyper and hypotensions.

Improves nervous tension, neurosis.

Improves chronic bronchitis, hepatitis.

Improves leukocytopenia and reticuloendothelial system.

Effective in numerous other ailments.

The three major killers these days are: cancer, cerebrosis and coronary diseases. The latter two have their etiology closely linked to blood circulatory system. Related problems like stroke, heart block, arteriosclerosis, obesity etc. are all tied to problems in blood circulation. One out of three persons dies from one of above ailments everyday.

Lingzhi can correct this imbalance and strengthen system to prevent further deterioration.

What are noteworthy are its preventive capabilities. For 21st century man, stressed out, poisoned by polluted atmosphere, wrong food habits and drug induced illnesses of modern medicine. While modern medicine has been very effective in treating certain conditions effectively and immediately, they do not address holistic approach of ancient medicine as a preventive and for regeneration of wasted tissues and damaged cells.

In conclusion, Ganoderma has been proven to exert significant effect on diminishing pain, fortifying body's immune system and prolonging life. Even though its role in cancer control has not been determined 100 percent yet.

Ganoderma has a history of 3,000 years, during which time it is widely used by many people with no reported unfavorable side effects. It is therefore highly recommend for prevention. I hope that people from all walks of life will take a concerned interest and share in development of Herbal treatments. Hopefully, with so much research and emerging evidence, Ganoderma can bring a brighter outlook to human race in conquest of longevity.
