Ganoderma lucidum is the top grade of traditional Chinese medicine, which is flat and non-toxic. It can be used as medicine or made into medicated diet, which can not only recuperate and nourish the body, but also be a health food. Scientific research shows that Ganoderma lucidum is rich in pharmacological components, including triterpenes, polysaccharides, 16 amino acids, protein, steroids, organic acids, mannitol, alkaloids, trace elements, etc., which have a two-way regulatory effect on human body.

Most of the ganoderma lucidum on the market now is artificially cultivated red ganoderma lucidum, which is brown, shiny and umbrella-shaped. The fruiting body of Ganoderma lucidum has a hard shell, which consists of a cylindrical handle and a kidney-shaped or semicircular cover. When ganoderma lucidum matures, it will spit out a lot of ganoderma lucidum spore powder, that is, the seeds of ganoderma lucidum, which contains all the essence of ganoderma lucidum. Fresh ganoderma lucidum (which has not yet exploded spore powder) collected when it is mature or about to mature has good efficacy, and can be used for soaking in water and wine, and can also be used for making ganoderma lucidum medicated diet. Fresh ganoderma lucidum contains a certain amount of water, so it is difficult to keep it for a short time. Generally, the surface of Ganoderma lucidum is washed, dried naturally in the shade or dried at 40-50 degrees, and the water content is controlled below 13%. Packed in sealed bags, stored in a damp-proof, moth-proof, dry and cool place, away from direct sunlight.

Let's take a look at the simple way to eat fresh ganoderma lucidum:

1. Ganoderma lucidum is boiled with water to make a Ganoderma lucidum beverage: slice the whole Ganoderma lucidum, put it in a pot (chrysanthemum, medlar and jujube can also be added), add a proper amount of water, boil it with low fire 1 hour, usually three or four times, and then mix the boiled Ganoderma lucidum water together for drinking. When drinking, you can add a proper amount of honey or rock sugar and take it directly.

2. Soak Ganoderma lucidum in water: slice Ganoderma lucidum, put it in a bowl, brew it directly with hot water, and drink it while soaking, which can be brewed many times.

3. Soak Ganoderma lucidum in wine: wash Ganoderma lucidum, slice or whole it, then soak it in white wine made of pure grain and seal it. After three days, when the color of liquor changes from white to brownish red, it can be drunk, or some honey or rock sugar can be added according to personal taste.
