Safety and efficacy of Ganoderma lucidum (lingzhi) and San Miao San supplementation in patients with rheumatoid arthritis:






"Ganoderma lucidum or lingzhi, which in Chinese means herb of spiritual potency, is one form of the mushroom Ganoderma lucida, which has been used to treat all forms of ailments, and is the oldest mushroom known to have been used in ancient Chinese medicine. Lingzhi allegedly has multiple health benefits for a broad range of conditions from arthritis to cancers, and has therefore attained an unparalleled reputation in the East as the ultimate herbal substance" (Edmund et al, 2007).

"Nonetheless, the significant lowering of the proinflammatory cytokine IL-18 in patients seen after treatment ([36]) and the analgesic properties without any demonstrable adverse side effects are noteworthy and deserve further study" (Edmund et al, 2007).
