The
title may baffle you to think when the convocation is for Ganoderma.
It was already over some 10000 years ago! That many long years before
people started consuming the product.
Utilization
of a degree starts after passing out successfully from an
examination. Similarly, utilization of a product starts when people
found it worthwhile and beneficial after they have consumed it.
Therefore the convocation ceremony for Ganoderma was long over. Only
thing is we were not there at that time! But it’s time we
understand that in the right perspective.
Ganoderma,
is it a medicine?
Rather
than getting into a big explanation about medicines, the easy way to
understand about what medicine is; “that
which course corrects an issue is a medicine”. So
anything that ensures an effect in the body may be called a medicine.
Food
is thy medicine
For
example lack of adequate Vitamin – A will affect eyes. Carrot with
plenty of Beta – Carotene supplements Vitamin – A. Carrot
in the real sense is a vegetable but acts like a medicine.
Greens
supplement iron and acting like a medicine relieves anaemia. Tomato
supplements Vitamin – C and working like a medicine improves
immunity strengthening the inherent immune system.
Ganoderma,
with its innumerable biologically active elements, works like a
medicine. However medicine has only a short duration utility. Once
the intended course correction is achieved, medicines are withdrawn.
However it’s imperative that the body must be well equipped with
strong immunity to ward off any possible health issue. Therefore we
need products that continuously improve the inherent defence
mechanism (immunity) all through our life. Medicines can’t do it.
Only a naturally occurring product can. Amongst many of these G
A N O D E R M A occupies
a prime slot.

Ganoderma a food supplement?
