Ganoderma Lucidum is only a tiny fungus grown in rotten wood. However for more than 2000 years, ancient Chinese praised Ganoderma Lucidum herb for its amazing healing properties on human body. Just what is so special about this herb?
Using natural healing herbs to treat and uproot the cause of chronic disease is no easy task. Conventional medication often finds ways to suppress the symptoms of disease. That's why doctors often prescribe medicine such as pain killer, antibiotics and even steroids.
However, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) looks to the actual cause of illness for a balanced and complete treatment.
Ganoderma Lucidum herb complies with many of the TCM healing principles. Below are the four most important healing principles covered by this herb:
1) Strengthen Immune System
This is the basic healing requirement. Improving immunity makes your body stronger to fight against bacteria and virus infection.
Every second, countless germs enter your body to threaten your health. You don't get sick because your immune system wins the cellular wars. You must win these wars in order to live.
Sometimes when you lose, you fall sick. But when you lose badly for a prolong time, you might get cancer. For cancer patient, immune system plays an important role to control and destroy cancerous cells.
So this is the first vital healing requirement.
Ganoderma Lucidum herb contains high concentration of Organic Germanium, Polysaccharides and Triterpenes. These active components are proven to strengthen our immunity cells and improve our immune system.
Besides this, Ganoderma Lucidum herb also regulates immune system to improve auto-immune diseases and allergic reaction such as asthma, rheumatoid arthritis and lupus.
Regulating immune system is to boost weak immunity cells and suppress overactive immunity cells. This produces a balancing effect.
However, by focusing solely on strengthening immune system, can we heal patient with stroke or high blood pressure?
No. It is useless to strengthen their immune system. That is why we need the second important healing principle...
2) Remove Circulatory Blockage
For above problems, you need to remove the circulatory blockage for significant health improvement. Circulatory blockage may be caused by the accumulation of cholesterol, fats, blood clots and other foreign substances in blood vessels or lymph vessels.
Many herb supplements focus on improving immune system. This is actually not enough. You need to effectively remove the blockage for a smoother circulation and healthier body.
Ganoderma Lucidum herb is very potent in improving blood circulation and remove circulatory blockage with its Triterpenes and Adenosine Monophosphate (AMP).
Besides this, some diseases are still incurable with the above two healing principles. Therefore, we need a third one...
3) Enhance Body Energy
Take a patient with weak heart for example. By improving her immune system and removing her circulatory blockage, can we enhance her heart energy?
Not really. That's why we need herbs to enhance her energy to let her organs function normally.
Ganoderma Lucidum herb also effectively improves our energy and enhances our organ function especially the heart. Other than this, there is one more important thing you need to do.
4) Neutralize and Remove Toxic
Human gets sick because of accumulation of toxics in the body. Look at patient with skin disease. If we strengthen her immune system, remove her circulatory blockage and enhance her energy, can we heal her?
It is quite unlikely.
We need to neutralize the accumulated toxics and remove it out from her body. Only then we can see significant improvement.
You must get rid of your body toxics before you can actually heal your illness. Without neutralizing and removing body toxics, any kind of disease is very hard to cure.
Ganoderma Lucidum plays an important role in neutralizing and removing body toxics. This fungus is particularly effective because of its rich content of minerals (especially Organic Germanium) and strong natural anti-oxidant, Superoxide Dismutase (SOD).
Not many herbs have all these healing functions covered. Some can only improve immune system. Some is only for blood circulation. But Ganoderma Lucidum herb effectively and completely covers all these four healing principles.
This explains why Ganoderma Lucidum is gaining popularity all over the world as the best choice for health care supplement.
