A mushroom a day may keep the doctor away. The active ingredients in a Asian mushroom used in traditional Chinese medicine (#TCM) can change bacteria in your stomach for the better, researchers have found. By altering gut bacteria, the #Reishi mushroom (#Ganoderma lucidum, #lingzhi #靈芝) prevents and reverses symptoms of #obesity in mice, including weight gain and insulin resistance. “Mice kept on a high-fat diet gained up to 25 percent more than mice kept on the same diet wit

#lingzhi #reishi #aging #longevity #traditionalmedicine The medicinal fungus Ganoderma lucidum is used as a dietary supplement and health tonic, but whether it affects longevity remains unclear. We show here that a water extract of G. lucidum mycelium extends lifespan of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. The G. lucidum extract reduces the level of fibrillarin (FIB-1), a nucleolar protein that correlates inversely with longevity in various organisms. Furthermore, G. lucidum

Microbiologist David Ojcius from Taiwan’s Chang Gung University and his colleagues found the secret to a healthy gut is what you feed them – and that perfect meal could come from a humble mushroom. They published their findings in Nature Communication
