Studies have found that the extract of Ganoderma lucidum can prevent obesity and help to lose weight! (Photo/excerpt from the Daily Mail) Most people are no strangers to Ganoderma lucidum. In ancient China, Ganoderma lucidum was regarded as a magical fairy grass, so it was mysterious. In fact, the efficacy of Ganoderma lucidum is indeed based on science. Studies have confirmed that fucose in Ganoderma lucidum can effectively inhibit tumors, while triterpenoids can regulate immune function.
Experiments show that eating Ganoderma lucidum can reduce weight by nearly 20%.
In addition to these known effects, Professor Lai Xinzhi from the Department of Medical Biotechnology and Laboratory of Chang Gung University and Chang Gung Biotechnology Company conducted a study on the weight-reducing effect of Ganoderma lucidum. The research team took obese mice with "three highs" (hypertension, hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia) as experimental objects and divided them into six groups. The first group did not eat Ganoderma lucidum in a normal diet, the second group did not eat Ganoderma lucidum in a normal diet, the third group did not eat Ganoderma lucidum in a high-fat diet, and the fourth, fifth and sixth groups also ate high-fat diets, but the concentration of Ganoderma lucidum was different.
