I don't know about ganoderma, but I do know that mullein flower tea is a very powerful cure for chronic cough and other lung ailments. It grows wild in a lot of places or you can get it at the health food store.

Hello! I would like to say that Ganoderma is a very powerful mushroom and is useful in many cases to improve health. You can find some videos in youtube about people who used to be sick (cancer, asma, etc. )and then got their health back. Bye :)

If you are going to make a tea of mullein flowers, please be very careful with this and do not ingest too much. A cup every other day would be sufficient. It can attack your kidneys if you ingest too much.
Thanks Daniel

No. Mushrooms are very healthy for you. By "fungus" are you referring to Candida?

No, mushrooms do not cause candida in fact some are well known for helping kill candida like Cordyceps. There seems to be some misconception that mushrooms cause fungus. Chinese medicine has used mushrooms for thousands of years to heal.

My hubby's nerve damage to his back is pretty much gone. He can sleep on his right side again, and I never hear him complain of pain in that location. I would add the tincture to a glass of juice in the morning. Always consider your source, and don't be scared to try your hand at growing them! They are quite simple to grow. You can find spores google root mushroom farm.

Can someone please say how to prepare lion's mane tincture?
What type of lion's mane mushroom (fresh or dry ), and the colour of the mushroom (white or brown)?
Which base should be used for the tincture (alcohol, glycerin, something else )?
Thank you

I tried less expensive brands, but they were nowhere near as effective.

Lions Mane are easy to grow in most climates. A quick goodle search will tell you how and it's pretty simple. They are not expensive really to buy- the cost of one bottle of capsules will buy about 100 plugs. All you have to do is find logs or trees to 'plant' them in and drill the holes.
Many medicinal mushrooms can be grown at home and bought online - to buy the capsules is insanity.
and if you have a good harvest, you can always eat them or sell some- organic mushrooms go for a good price to local chefs- and you can always check your local 'locavore' site.
They are easy to tincture and make into teas or dry as well. Fresh and local is always better :)

I am hoping to induce more ngf [nerve growth factor] also to knock down the tn [trigeminal neuralgia].

Unfortunately, that's not an option where I live. "Drill holes in a tree"? What's a tree? (j/k)
I live in a concrete jungle, so this isn't an option, nor is foraging through local wooded areas (in case that was your Plan B). ;-)
I suppose I could ask a friend in the burbs if I could drill holes in one of their trees. When they're finished laughing at me, maybe they'll say yes? :) (I think I had one too many eggnogs at our family get-together earlier this afternoon. I'm in a sillier-than-usual mood.)
Not knocking it--it's a great idea for those with trees in their yard! I would be ALL over this if I were one of them.

If I've been working in a smokey place, I use saline spray to help but I have not been sick with anything for all these years. I think it's building my immune system even when I'm in contact with a lot of people.
I recommend taking the blends of at least 5 to 10 or more. Not just one mushroom. I ran into a number of ordering problems between my store and online and was without for a month, also was around smoke again AND found a major mold issue in my new place. So... I got sick. Not nearly as bad as I used to though. I tried to prevent getting sick with Reishi tea, and bought the only blend I could find shitake/maitake but it just wasn't enough and I got a full blown sinus infection. Difference is back in the day I would be in bed unable to walk my dogs even, now I am fine, just unable to do yoga or go to work and I sleep a lot.
I finally got ahold of a medicinal mushroom blend with about 10 or more strains and I'm getting better. Makes me really appreciate how well they were working all these years. Highly recommend them!!!

My son suffers from a debilitating case of chronic rhino-sinusitis (he's had it for years now) plus associated allergies (he's allergic to almost everything)! He has such bad 'post-nasal drip' that he's constantly hacking up mucous which then causes him to gag on food and vomit it back up because of the continuous accumulation at the back of the throat. He also suffers from severe pressure headaches. Can you tell me what the combination of mushrooms was that you used which gave you such wonderful relief from your sinus problems? My son is really, really desperate. His condition makes it very difficult for him to find (and keep) a job and he's about as depressed as he is ill. Any help/advice would be gratefully appreciated.
BTW because he's been without a job (lost the last one due to illness), he's been without a health insurance plan. So we need to try to do it naturally - if at all possible.
