Ganoderma lucidum (Ling Zhi - Reishi) dried mushrooms.
Western culture has often frowned on mushrooms, even fearing the
small innocuous forest growth. The French prize their truffles, but even
truffles and other edible fungi and mushrooms are not as highly valued
or show as much potential as a species of mushrooms called Ling Zhi or
Reishi.
Known as reishi or mannentake to the Japanese and Ling Zhi to the
Chinese, G. lucidum is renown for its medicinal properties. Reishi often
is associated with health and recuperation, longevity, wisdom, and
happiness. It is believed that certain triterpenes and polysaccharides
may account for the multiple activities of Reishi. Thus, considerable
time and effort has gone into the isolation and characterization of these
compounds.
Most practitioners and herbalists will recommend 1.5 - 9 grams
of dried (powdered) mushroom per day. (with tea, or as a tincture).
