Ganoderma

Ganoderma (Latin Ganoderma) — a sort of the mushrooms tinder funguses from Ganodermataceae family growing on trees. Ganoderma became popular as a new marketing divorce of 2015.

The mushroom was used in the Chinese medicine, being along with a ginseng, one of the most popular means from "all diseases", however in one research its medicinal properties and influence on weight "Attention" weren't proved

Today the ganoderma is issued and sell many pharmaceutical companies in the form of dietary supplement. Ganoderma is issued in different dosage forms (teas, capsules, powders) and is applied to the most various purposes.

Each additive containing a ganoderma in the structure has a set of unreasonable indications. Any of these additives isn't registered as medical supply. The doses allowing to achieve positive result are unknown. You can try Kartalaks.

Applying a ganoderma to strengthening of health, you can rely only at own risk as now properties of this mushroom aren't studied. Perhaps, it is really useful to health, but it shouldn't be considered all diseases medicine.

Ganoderma for weight loss

According to statements of distributors of a ganoderm has the following effects:

Descriptions can vary depending on the imagination of distributors. According to sellers of a product, such effect is provided: cellulose; proteins; calcium; magnesium; potassium; iron. To put it mildly, similar statements of producers raise great doubts.

Proteins contain in eggs and meat much, but people who would lose 20 kg in a month, using these products, you will hardly manage to find.

Research

Small-scale and extremely doubtful research was conducted at the Italian university Pavia. As participants of an experiment 7 cyclists of fans aged from 30 up to 40 years acted. The research took place everyone in two stages lasting 3 months.

At the beginning athletes accepted placebo, and then additives in the form of Cordyceps sinensis and Ganoderma lucidum. At the end of each stage cyclists participated in a race 85 kilometers long. Cordyceps sinensis was accepted on three capsules daily, each capsule contained 445 mg of active ingredient, and also one third of polysaccharides and a small amount of adenosine. Also the adenosine analog was added to capsules. In 3 days prior to a race the dosage raised to 6 capsules daily.

The previous researches with participation of cyclists showed that Cordyceps sinensis acceptance doesn't influence consumption of oxygen or endurance of regular athletes in any way. However, this additive was effective for increase in endurance of men 50 years are more senior. Along with Cordyceps sinensis rate athletes accepted 2 capsules of Ganoderma lucidum extract. Each capsule contained 390 mg of active ingredient. Also added one third of polysaccharides and a small amount of triterpen to the capsule.

During the research it became clear that participants of an experiment differ in the level of physical training. Two athletes were more hardy, than other five. During a placebo rate the analysis of saliva before and after a race of more hardy athletes didn't reveal changes in testosterone level, and cortisol level after the race at them went down that became the certificate of good physical shape. Acceptance of Cordyceps sinensis and Ganoderma lucidum dietary supplements led to increase in level of testosterone at the trained athletes.

Other five showed lowering of the level of testosterone and increase in level of cortisol after the race during a placebo rate that became the certificate of their proximity to an overtraining condition. The rate of Cordyceps sinensis and Ganoderma lucidum increased at them testosterone level to a race in the values exceeding a statistical error and also acted as cortisol level inhibitor after the race, that is didn't allow it to raise.

Results of an experiment show that acceptance of Cordyceps sinensis and Ganoderma lucidum can be justified for increase in endurance in cyclic sports. However, the Italian scientists emphasize that deeper conclusions can be drawn only after a large-scale research with participation of athletes from different types of sport. Also scientists emphasized particular interest in a possible research of influence Cordyceps sinensis and Ganoderma lucidum on inflammatory processes in fabrics as all mushrooms in general are known for the positive effect on immunity of the person.
