Scientific studies and therapeutic usage
Ganoderma lucidum may possess some anti-tumor, immunomodulatory and immunotherapeutic activities, supported by some studies on polysaccharides, terpenes, and other bioactive compounds isolated from fruiting bodies and mycelia of this fungus (reviewed by R. R. Paterson).
Laboratory studies have shown anti-neoplastic effects of fungal extracts or isolated compounds against some types of cancer. In an animal model, Ganoderma lucidum has been reported to prevent cancer metastasis, with potency comparable to Lentinan from shiitake mushrooms.
The mechanisms by which Ganoderma lucidum may affect cancer are unknown and may target different stages of cancer development: inhibition of angiogenesis (formation of arterial vessels within the tumour) mediated by cytokines, cytoxicity, inhibiting migration of the cancer cells and metastasis, and inducing and enhancing apoptosis of tumor cells.
Variation between preparations and potential negative side effects may exist. Ganoderma lucidum extracts may be adaptogenic, anti-allergenic and anti-hypertensive due to the presence of triterpenes. Apart from these properties, ganoderma lucidum has been found to be anti-inflammatory, antiviral, anti-parasitic, anti-fungal, antidiabetic, anti-hypotensive, and protective of the liver. It has also been found to inhibit platelet aggregation, and to lower blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar.
Ganoderma Lucidum may act as a blood pressure stabilizer, antioxidant, analgesic, a kidney and nerve tonic. It has been used in bronchitis prevention and in cardiovascular treatment, and in the treatment of high triglycerides, high blood pressure, hepatitis, allergies, chemotherapy support, HIV support, and fatigue and altitude sickness.
Peer-reviewed studies indicate that ganoderic acid has some protective effects against liver injury by viruses and other toxic agents in mice, suggesting a potential benefit of this compound in the treatment of liver diseases in humans.
Several Ganoderma lucidum species have been used in traditional Asian medicines for thousands of years. Today, they are being tested for a variety of potential therapeutic application:
anticancer properties
immunoregulatory properties
antioxidant activity
liver-protective properties
hypoglycemic properties
antibacterial properties
antiviral properties
antifungal properties
reducing blood cholesterol
inhibiting blood vessel regeneration (angiogenesis)
antifibrotic properties
protection against radiation-induced damage
reducing lower urinary tract symptoms
increasing endurance for vigorous exercise
Ganoderma Lucidum Preparation
Ganoderma lucidum is traditionally prepared by simmering in water. Thinly sliced or pulverized ganoderma lucidum (either fresh or dried) is added to a pot of boiling water, the water is then brought to a simmer, and the pot is covered; the ganoderma lucidum is then simmered for two hours. The resulting liquid should be fairly bitter in taste, with the more active red ganoderma lucidum more bitter than the black. The process may be repeated. Alternatively, it can be used as an ingredient in a formula decoction or used to make an extract (in liquid, capsule, or powder form). The more active red forms of ganoderma lucidum are far too bitter to be consumed in a soup, as long cooked shiitake mushrooms might be.
Alcohol extractions have also been found to have various medicinal effects, including antiviral properties in a number of scientific studies. From a scientific perspective, ganoderma lucidum tinctures may be more effective than lingzhi teas for some diseases, despite the prevalence of teas in traditional Chinese medicine.
