How many health benefits does “Reishi extract + sporoderm-broken spore powder” have? The following three studies provide the effects we have known for over a decade.
Part one of the trilogy: Protect the liver and reduce chemical liver damage
O “Research on the Protective Effect of wholeGanoderma lucidum spore Powder on Chemical Liver Injury” published inPractical Preventive Medicine em 2007 proved that “Ganoderma lucidum extrair + sporoderm-broken spore powder” has a good hepatoprotective effect through animal experiments.
According to the research report, the wholeGanoderma lucidum spore powder is a combination of “Ganoderma lucidum extrair + sporoderm-broken spore powder”:
““Ganoderma lucidum is extracted twice with alcohol and then extracted with water, and the intermediate extract produced by this method is mixed, concentrated and spray-dried to obtainGanoderma lucidum extract powder. Then, theGanoderma lucidum spore powder is mixed with theGanoderma lucidum extract powder in appropriate proportion after sporoderm-breaking treatment, and further dried and sterilized to obtain the wholeGanoderma lucidum spore powder with its polysaccharide content of above 10% and its triterpenoid content of above 8%.”
The researchers fed healthy experimental mice with wholeGanoderma lucidum spore powder every day for 30 dias, and administered a chemical toxic substance CCl4 (carbon tetrachloride) to the mice by gavage to induce acute liver injury on the 30th day.
CCl4 will quickly damage liver cells, causing ALT (alanine aminotransferase) and AST (aspartate aminotransferase) in liver cells to penetrate into the blood. Portanto, the severity of liver damage can be known according to these two liver indexes in the blood combined with histopathological analysis.
The results are shown in the figure below:
Os níveis de ALT e AST aumentaram substancialmente em camundongos sem a proteção do todoGanoderma lucidum pó de esporos, enquanto os níveis de ALT e AST foram significativamente mais baixos em ratos que anteriormente comeram o todoGanoderma lucidum esporo em pó todos os dias.
Os resultados da histopatologia hepática também são consistentes com os indicadores hepáticos: a gravidade e variedade de necrose celular e efeitos citopáticos, como edema celular, inflamação celular e inchaço e esteatose causada pela destruição de CCl4 no tecido hepático dos camundongos que consumiram inteiroGanoderma lucidum pó de esporos todos os dias são reduzidos em mais da metade.
CCl4 pode danificar diretamente o fígado gravemente, por isso é frequentemente usado para avaliar o efeito hepatoprotetor. Obviamente, consumo diário de “Ganoderma lucidum extrair + sporoderm-broken spore powder” should be able to significantly reduce various chemical liver damage that may be caused by diet and drugs.
Part two of the trilogy: Protect bone marrow and white blood cells and alleviate radiation damage
O “Research on the protective effect of compoundGanoderma lucidum powder on radiation-injured mice” published in “Central South Pharmacy” em 2007 proved that “Ganoderma lucidum extrair + sporoderm-broken spore powder” can reduce bone marrow cell damage, leukopenia and immunocompromise caused by radiotherapy.
According to the research report, “CompoundGanoderma lucidum preparation is a powder prepared from the extract powder (1g of extract powder is equivalent to 20g ofGanoerma polidom fruiting body) made fromGanoderma lucidum extract through concentration and spray drying process and the sporoderm-brokenGanoderma lucidum spore powder in an appropriate proportion.”. It is understood that the compoundGanoderma lucidum preparation made of “Ganoderma lucidum extrair + sporoderm-broken spore powder” is the same as the “wholeGanoderma lucidum spore powder” used in the previous study on liver protection.
The researchers first fed the experimental mice a compoundGanoderma lucidum preparation for 14 dias, and then irradiated them with Cobalt-60, a source of radiation commonly used in the treatment of cancer, and evaluated them 3 e 14 days after irradiation.
It was found that the recovery of white blood cells, the DNA content of the overall bone marrow cells, and the level of serum hemolysin, which represents the level of immune function, in these mice were much better than those in mice that were directly irradiated with Cobalt-60 without the protection of compoundGanoderma lucidum preparations (as shown in the figure below).
Apparently, the compoundGanoderma lucidum preparation provided considerable protection for the mice either by making the cells more resistant to radiation damage or by enhancing their resilience and speed of recovery.
The type of radiation used to treat cancer, known as gamma rays, is one of the most lethal types of radiation. Radiation is the electromagnetic wave emitted from an object. Infrared radiation, ultraviolet radiation, microwaves, X-rays, electromagnetic waves generated by electrical equipment and nuclear energy radiation are all radiations that people are more or less worried about.
It can be seen that patients receiving radiotherapy need “Ganoderma lucidum extrair + sporoderm-broken spore powder” to reduce radiation damage, and we can also rely on “Ganoderma lucidum extrair + sporoderm-broken wall spore powder” to mitigate the damage caused by radiations that cannot be avoided in daily life.
Part three of the trilogy: Help immune drugs fight cancer
In theory, liver protection and anti-radiation should be two different effects, but both can be achieved by“Ganoderma lucidum extrair + sporoderm-broken spore powder” from the same source.
As for how “Ganoderma lucidum extrair + sporoderm-broken spore powder” assists immune drugs to fight cancer? Stay tuned for Part three of the trilogy(to be continued).
