Three Imperial Mushrooms

Three Imperial Mushrooms is a combination of three very special mushrooms and ginseng. This particular combination has the ability to enhance immunity, promote regulation of the immune system, and combat disease.

Ganoderma
Ganoderma is a mushroom that has many different names. It is commonly known as Reishi in Japan. The Chinese name, ling zhi, translates to "spirit plant". It is also referred to as the "plant of immortality", "ten thousand year mushroom", and "phantom mushroom". These names describe the mushroom's reputation as an provider of longevity, spiritual growth, and also its rarity.

Ganoderma is used as medicine in China and Japan for the treatment of many illnesses. Some of them are liver disease, kidney disease, hypertension, arthritis, nervous disorders, breathing trouble, and ulcers.

Both polysaccharides and triterpines are found in Ganoderma. Ploysaccharades are found in Ganoderma and stimulate immunity and demonstrate antitumor activity. Additionally, they have been shown to increase DNA synthesis of spleen cells in mixed lymphocytic culture and increase both RNA and DNA synthesis in the bone marrow of mice. The triterpines in Ganoderma are reported to have adaptogenic, antihypertensive, and anti-allergic effects.

Maitake
Maitake mushrooms originated in northern Japan but can not be found throughout the world. Recent studies have confirmed Maitake to be the most potent medicinal mushroom in terms of immune enhancement and antitumor activity. Additionally, it has demonstrated an exceptional cancer growth inhibition ratio. Tremendous interest within the medical community has been generated by Maitake as a result. This has lead to an increase in studies into the concept of using Maitake in conjunction with chemotherapy for cancer patients.

Shiitake
Shiitake is a mushroom that is found on fallen deciduous trees. Shiitake has also been used in Japanese and Chinese medicine and cuisine for thousands of years. It contains proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, fiber, Vits B2 and C, ergosterol (a precursor to Vit D), and various minerals and enzymes.

Shiitake contains Lentimula edodes mycelium extract (LEM) and lentinan. These have exhibited strong antitumor properties. Laboratory research indicated that their anti tumor properties are achieved through enhancement of the immune system. Shiitake is thought to also have antiviral, antibacterial, antiparasitic, hepatoprotective, and cardiovascular effects.

American Ginseng
As the name indicates, American Ginseng is indigenous to America. Native American Indians used to to cure diseases and to increase fertility. American Ginseng has gained popularity with Chinese herbology which reports the ginseng as having the function to benefit the qi, generate fluids, nourish the yin, and clear heat.

Laboratory studies have focused on the radioprotective, antitumor, antiviral, metabolic, antioxidant effects as well as it's influence on the nervous, reproductive, and the endocrine systems, lipid metabolism, and cholesterol.

American Ginseng is used to treat weakness and fatigue. It boost the immune system and helps to manage stress.
