The Facts: Why Switching To Ganoderma Coffee Makes Sense

Ganoderma, or Red Reishi, Coffee might help to improve your health. Its biggest medical benefit is the way it strengthens your immune system. It can be considered a preventative medicine instead of a treatment for a certain disease.

Switching from your regular caffeinated coffee to Ganoderma makes sense due to its ability to improve the function of the immune system. It is said to help the body adapt to many types of body stresses such as trauma, sleep deprivation, temperature, exposure to toxins, psychological stress, infection, or radiation. It helps the organisms in the body return to a normal, balanced state after illness.

Red Reishi or Ganoderma coffee, acts as regulator that fine-tunes our immune systems. Its main purpose is to detect pathogens such as bacteria and other viruses that attack the body.

A compromised immune system can develop viruses, parasites, bacteria and fungi that cause disease. Repeated use of common antibiotics, anti-viral agents, and anti-fungal medications can cause microbes to develop a resistance to the medications. Consuming red Reishi can eliminate these problems and is gaining popularity among many as an adjunct to combating the disagreeable side effects of radiation and chemotherapy associated with cancer treatment.

Red Reishi has exceptional anti-stress qualities that can help improve memory, reduce tension and sharpen your concentration. It is particularly helpful in the treatment of degenerative diseases, such as Alzheimers and dementia that affects the elderly.

Ganoderma or Reishi has been around for many centuries. Originally consumed by emperors and royalty as the a miracle herb, many westerners have overlooked it until recently.

Some of the many health benefits of Ganoderma are its antioxidant effects on the body, the positive effects on circulatory system and respiratory tract. It has been shown to lower high blood pressure, balance cholesterol levels and reduce the symptoms of bronchitis, asthma and other lung problems.

Scientist have studied Ganoderma use as a treatment for cancer, insomnia, arthritis, and many other diseases.

Used for years in Japan and China as a licensed medical treatment, Reishi is often used for its calming and sedative effects. Research among United States, UK, China and Japan prove the unparalleled benefits of this miracle mushroom when used in healing and holist health.

So what exactly is Ganoderma? Ganoderma Lucidum is the scientific name for a species of red mushroom cultivated and grown wild in Asia for thousands of years. The reishi mushroom has been expensive and hard to find in large quantities until recently. The Reishi mushroom only grows on one specific tree in Asia. Scientist are now cultivating the mushroom indoors. This mushroom has more than 200 active elements known to improve health.

Some other benefits of using or drinking Ganoderma coffee are:

1. Balances blood sugar levels and pancreatic functions.
2. Protects against skin cell degeneration, improving skins texture and reducing appearance of aging
3. Eliminates toxins accumulated in the body
4. Increases metabolism
5. Reduces fatigue
6. Contains anti-oxidants that inhibit damaging free radicals
7. Helps unclog arteries and supports liver function
8. Boosts energy

13. Beautifies the skin by improving vitality

Echinacea

Common Name Purple Coneflower
Parts Used A juice is made from the above ground part of the plant. The root is commonly dried and available in capsule form.

Common Uses
Prevention and treatment of colds and flu.
Helps boost sluggish immune system.
Aids treatments of recurrent infections of the ears, respiratory tract and urinary tract.
Reduces recurrence of vaginal yeast infections


How Echinacea works

In a nutshell, Echinacea helps stimulate the immune system into action.
To do this it helps activate white blood cells and supports the production of interferon, an important part of our defense against viral infections which cause colds and flu.
As a result our immune system is stronger and we have a better defense against infections.

Suggested Use
Short term - As soon as you notice symptoms take 40 drops of juice or 2 capsules. Then 40 drops of juice or 1 capsule every 2 hours until you feel symptoms are lessening.

Long term (perhaps to boost immune system before the flu season begins)– Take 40 drops of juice or one capsule 3 or 4 times each day.

Echinacea
should not be taken continuously for more than 8 weeks, as after this time it’s immune boosting powers may lessen. A two week break is recommended before you start taking the herb again.

Side Effects There are no known side effects.
Safety Concerns
Echinacea should not be used by people with auto-immune illnesses, or systemic diseases such as tuberculosis and multiple sclerosis.

The current European monograph on herbs lists no contraindications for taking the expressed juice of Echinacea purpurea during pregnancy or lactation.
If you are allergic to flowers in the daisy family you should not take Echinacea.
The History of Echinacea

Natives Americans used Echinacea to treat snake bites, fevers and hard to heal wounds. .

It was first used by a U.S. medical practice in 1887 and quickly became very popular among the medical professionals. However, in the early part of this century it lost popularity and virtually disappeared from the U.S. medical scene

Echinacea was rediscovered in the 1930’s by Gerhard Madaus, a German doctor, and since then more than 200 journal articles have been written about this amazing purple wildflower.
It is now among the most popular herbal preparation in the United States and Europe.
