Recently, several rounds of cold waves have struck, with heavy snowfall covering many parts of China in a blanket of white. 

Attentive users may have noticed that the Ganoderma lucidum spore oil they consume daily seems to have solidified and turned white.

“Has it frozen and spoiled?”

“Can it still be consumed?”

In fact, there is no need to worry.

The appearance of white solidification or crystallization in Ganoderma lucidum spore oil is a normal phenomenon.

Why does spore oil “crystallize”?

This is mainly because Ganoderma lucidum spore oil contains Ganoderma triterpenes, unsaturated fatty acids, and a very important component – sterols. Sterols will automatically change from oil to crystals in a low-temperature environment.

Usually, pure Ganoderma lucidum spore oil will crystallize in an environment below 7°C. The degree of crystallization varies with different temperatures, which is a normal phenomenon.

Teaching you “one-step restoration”!

If crystallization occurs, don’t worry about it being a quality issue. Just warm it slightly in your palm or place it near a heater to restore room temperature, and the crystals will disappear.

How to consume Ganoderma lucidum spore oil more effectively?

The spore oil that condenses the essence of Ganoderma lucidum not only inherits the essence of traditional Chinese medicine Ganoderma ”strengthening the body and prolonging life”, but also brings better absorption effects through the blessing of modern technology. So how can it be consumed to maximize its effectiveness?

Taking it on an empty stomach half an hour before meals yields better results.

In principle, it is better to consume spore oil on an empty stomach, that is, half an hour before meals, which can increase the chance of contact between Ganoderma and the cells on the stomach and intestinal walls. However, some people have sensitive stomachs and may feel uncomfortable eating on an empty stomach. In that case, taking it after meals can also be effective.

Take two softgels before and after drinking alcohol for more effective liver protection.

Spore oil, known as “soft gold for liver protection”, has a certain auxiliary protective effect against chemical liver injury, such as that caused by alcohol. If you can supplement with two Ganoderma lucidum spore oil softgels before and after each drink, it’s like putting a layer of armor on your “liver”, making liver protection more effective.

Take it with Western medicine, with an interval of more than 2 hours.

Many studies have confirmed that Ganoderma and Western medicine have complementary effects, and their overall effects are far better than taking Western medicine alone or eating Ganoderma alone, for example, in diseases such as diabetes and hypertension.

It should be reminded that Western medicine is commonly a single chemical component. If it undergoes a chemical change with the components of Ganoderma, it may affect its original disease-fighting efficacy. Therefore, it is safer to have an interval of more than 2 hours between the two.

Persist in taking a large dose for a long time to be effective.

Multiple studies have confirmed that the effects of “large doses” and “long-term use” of Ganoderma products are more significant than the effects of “small doses” and “short-term use”. Ganoderma‘s therapeutic effect on various diseases is very stable, but the effect is relatively slow, so it must be taken for at least 1-3 months or more. The longer you persist in taking it, the more obvious the effect will be.

Who is suitable for consuming Ganoderma lucidum spore oil?

People who take medication for a long time, frequently socialize, are recovering from surgery, work overtime and stay up late, have poor sleep, and have low immunity are suitable for consuming Ganoderma lucidum spore oil.
