"Ganoderma lucidum: a potent pharmacological macrofungus"

"Ganoderma lucidum (Ling Zhi) is a basidiomycete white rot macrofungus which has been used extensively as "the mushroom of immortality" in China, Japan, Korea and other Asian countries for 2000 years. A great deal of work has been carried out on therapeutic potential of Ganoderma lucidum. The basidiocarp, mycelia and spores of Ganoderma lucidum contain approximately 400 different bioactive compounds, which mainly include triterpenoids, polysaccharides, nucleotides, sterols, steroids, fatty acids, proteins/peptides and trace elements which has been reported to have a number of pharmacological effects including immunomodulation, anti-atherosclerotic, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, chemo-preventive, antitumor, chemo and radio protective, sleep promoting, antibacterial, antiviral (including anti-HIV), hypolipidemic, anti-fibrotic, hepatoprotective, anti-diabetic, anti-androgenic, anti-angiogenic, anti-herpetic, antioxidative and radical-scavenging, anti-aging, hypoglycemic, estrogenic activity and anti-ulcer properties. Ganoderma lucidum has now become recognized as an alternative adjuvant in the treatment of leukemia, carcinoma, hepatitis and diabetes. The macrofungus is very rare in nature rather not sufficient for commercial exploitation for vital therapeutic emergencies, therefore, the cultivation on solid substrates, stationary liquid medium or by submerged cultivation has become an essential aspect to meet the driving force towards the increasing demands in the international market. Present review focuses on the pharmacological aspects, cultivation methods and bioactive metabolites playing a significant role in various therapeutic applications."

"Ganoderma lucidum and its pharmaceutically active compounds"

"Ganoderma lucidum is a wood-degrading basidiomycete with numerous pharmacological effects. Since the mushroom is very rare in nature, artificial cultivation of fruiting bodies has been known on wood logs and on sawdust in plastic bags or bottles. Biotechnological cultivation of G. lucidum mycelia in bioreactors has also been established, both on solid substrates and in liquid media by submerged cultivation of fungal biomass. The most important pharmacologically active constituents of G. lucidum are triterpenoids and polysaccharides. Triterpenoids have been reported to possess hepatoprotective, anti-hypertensive, hypocholesterolemic and anti-histaminic effects, anti-tumor and anti-engiogenic activity, effects on platelet aggregation and complement inhibition. Polysaccharides, especially beta-d-glucans, have been known to possess anti-tumor effects through immunomodulation and anti-angiogenesis. In addition, polysaccharides have a protective effect against free radicals and reduce cell damage caused by mutagens."

ANALYZED-ENCAPSULATED-PACKAGED IN ITALY

WHAT DOES THE 15:1 - 8:1 EXTRACTION RATIO MEAN:

The extraction report of each medicinal mushroom extract identifies the initial amount of dried mushroom used to arrive at the final product. For example, our 15:1 extracts are produced from 15 kg of dried mushroom fruit bodies. The extraction method uses hot water and/or alcohol to separate the different bioactive compounds (different types of Polysaccharides - Beta Glucans - Terpenes - Triterpenes etc ...) This liquid obtained is then dried by a spray method until 1 kg of a powerful pure mushroom extract is obtained with all the beneficial compounds of the original 15 kg of dried mushrooms. The diversity of the extraction ratio varies depending on the fungus treated. The whole process takes place in a high-tech factory to ensure the highest quality in terms of safety and certified power of the extracts. The analyzes performed on all our batches in Italian laboratories guarantee the complete absence of chemical residues.
