The recommended usage of Ganoderma Lucidum

By: Levi H. Pagunsan, M.D., F.P.C.P.

 

 

        First of all, anyone taking Ganoderma Lucidum must increase his water intake as Ganoderma has been observed from experience, testimonials and scientific report to possess diuretic properties. 65-70% of our body weight is water and so if one does not replace the water loss as a result of taking this food, one can get dehydrated. There are good reasons why water is the most important part of man’s diet. First, water is needed in every single cell to produce energy. Second, water is needed to transport nutrients and oxygen from the blood to the cells. Third, water is also needed to carry the body’s waste product after energy is extracted from the nutrients, to be eliminated either by respiration, through perspiration as sweat, or through the kidneys by urination, and as stool.

        Many diseases afflicting mankind are caused by the poor removal of the waste product of metabolism due to poor water intake, since an insufficient amount of water will cause imbalance within the cells and disrupt the body’s function in general. The gradual reduction of the body fluids makes the cells dehydrated and will cause cell death. In cold countries, people have the tendency to take less amount of water because they don’t have the desire to drink. The cold environment causes the body to adjust and adapt, so the thirst center is not stimulated and the person does not seek water to drink. The adjustment is temporary and for a short period will not affect the body’s functions. However, if allowed to continue for a longer period, it will be detrimental to the cells due to dehydration and will result in gradual deterioration of the cell. Correspondingly, disrupting cell functions will cause cell death.

        The gradual deterioration of the cells does not manifest any warning to the patient because it does not cause pain or any obvious symptoms until a great number of cells of the specific organs fail and die. It is important to note that enough water must be taken regularly to meet the body’s demand per day. Water intake is computed based on body weight, and the formula for our normal water needs is: weight in pounds divided by 16. Ex: 150lbs. divided by 16 = 9 glasses of water/day, or even more as can be tolerated. The best guide for water intake is the color of the urine. If the urine color is yellow it indicates that the water intake is insufficient. When the urine color resembles that of water, only then is one assured of sufficient water intake. Thirst is a poor indicator of water needs in the body.

        Our body is the best doctor and, as such, is capable of curing itself. Why sometimes it fails to cure or prevent a foreign body to cause damage illness is due to the fact that its defense system had malfunctioned due to lack of, or improper, nutrition and insufficient water intake.

        Ganoderma is not a medicine and should not be promoted as such. Its main function is to provide a balanced nutrition for the trillions of cells that our body is made up of. Once these body cells are properly nourished and healthy, the cells protect the body from foreign invaders that may cause illness, and which are stopped by the body cells assigned to do the job, either by ingesting the invaders or by releasing substances that will cause the invaders to disintegrate. They produce hormones and antibodies to protect the overall body functions.

        Most illnesses are caused by the imbalance of the body functions due to improper diet. Many are not aware that the food we eat three times a day does not guarantee a complete food amount that the body needs. Often, one hears people saying, “I’m full” or “I am not hungry,” but being not hungry or being full is not an indication that one has already inside him the proper amount of nutrition for his cells to function properly.

        Our body is comparable to car engines. There are cars that run best if the owner follows the specific fuel requirement. Engines that run on gasoline should not be given diesel fuel; otherwise the engine will malfunction and later be destroyed. In the same token, our body was designed to function properly, but only if they are provided with the choice fuel. What one puts in his mouth for food is the single most important act one must not take for granted because it is the key to health and greatly influences man’s lifespan.

Note: Ganoderma has no known side effects. However, reactions may be observed in the early period while taking it. It is believed that the manifestations are welcome reactions as they are the body’s way of adjusting to the nutrients provided. The reactions will be more manifested especially on those who have more medical problems and can be negligible to those who do not have any. The reactions may not be the same to all people.

          If reaction occurs, dosage may be reduced for two to three days and resumed after symptoms had disappeared. Remember, always increase fluid intake when taking Ganoderma, since it washes the toxins out of the body, thus bringing it back to its proper balance and equilibrium.◙

I live to eat
By Godihard Buenaflor

" I eat to live. "
This holds true, if not for everybody, for most of us. And whether we like it or not, this is human nature. We need to eat to live.

But not for me. Mine is the other way around: “I LIVE TO EAT.” And every food and drink I consume, I consume them in excess.

Ever since I was a kid, I used to be chubby and overweight. But not anymore. Thanks to DXN especially our Lingzhi Coffee, RG/GL, Spirulina tablets, and of course, the right exercise, sleep, diet and a lot of prayers.

My ordeal started April 26, 2003. We were in Boracay at that time. We did BOMs for 3 days, coupled with heavy eating, drinking, sleeping on early mornings and waking up on early mornings! Kulang talaga sa tulog even though we drank ourselves to death every night.

On the third day, I felt dizzy and everything seems to spin. When we reached Kalibo, Aklan, after having pork liempo for lunch, I felt dizzy again. My nape became numb and so did my hands and feet. I started to have cold sweat and I ask my group to take me to a nearby hospital. The doctor took my BP and it was a scary 200/140!

 

I was given something to decrease my BP and I took 1 sachet of Lingzhi Coffee 3-in-1 and a pair of RG/GL. When it subsided, at 150/90, we head immediately for Iloilo City.

Along the way, everything started to change every second. Many thoughts entered my mind. I had mixed emotions: dismissal, denial, afraid to die, bargaining, yes, I was bargaining to the Lord that if I started to do good and be good for the rest of my life, He would spare me from Death; angry, sad, etc. I kept thinking about my family: my wife, my 2 kids who are 5 and 7 at that time.

Last May 1, 2003, I went to the doctor for a check up. My BP at that time was at a steady 150/90. I weighed 220 lbs. and my waistline is 42 inches. My BMI (Body Mass Index) was 30+. I’m frighteningly obese (normal BMI is >20 but <25).

My lab test showed I have a problem with my cholesterol, triglyceride and uric acid. Also, my liver was inflamed. I started on my own diet program, exercise, walking briskly everyday for 30 to 45 minutes, two pairs of RG GL everyday and six tablets of Spirulina together with my doctor’s prescription.

I quit smoking and drinking that very day. I don’t eat pork anymore so with shellfishes and crustaceans. I’m now more of fruits and vegetables and other high-fiber foods like oatmeal, etc.

After 56 days, on June 26, 2003, I went for another lab test without my doctor’s knowledge. My cholesterol, uric acid and triglyceride levels decreased dramatically! My cholesterol went down from 5.40 to 4.22! Uric acid level: from 471 to 345 and triglyceride, from 2.82 to 2.17! All are now on normal levels!

I went to see my doctor and showed the results. She can’t believe it! She said that even though with her prescription, diet and exercise, it would take a year or more to decrease those levels back to normal again.

Currently, I’m still taking her prescription together with a pair of RG/GL and lots of Lingzhi Coffee 3-in-1 everyday. My BP is now normal: 130/80 and in as little as one year, I lost 75 lbs. from 220 to 145! My waistline is now at 31 inches.

Thanks to our products! I now live a happy and healthy life. My family, especially my kids are very happy also.

My advice to others is: Don’t wait for the worst thing to happen, a little discipline on our part will save our lives as well as the life of others. Because of DXN, I’m now experiencing time freedom and reaping the financial rewards from being an independent distributor by sharing DXN to every people I meet.

The last thing I have learned from all of these is: Nobody can help us get through every trial we experience but GOD. Reach out to Him now and thank Him for DXN and the beautiful life He had given to you! Good Morning and God Bless everyone!

 

 


...brush with death

It was in 2000 while in Bahrain working as cook when Loreta “Lita” Jamito, 47, felt something wrong with her stomach. Her eyes turned yellow and her skin turned itchy.

At first they suspected hepatitis, but later tests proved she was facing a more serious disease.

By November 2001, after having checked up, she was advised to undergo operation. It was found out that there is a mass growth in the pancreas that caused excretion of waste inside her body.

With her husband on AWOL status and their savings running out, they were on a struggle to fund her treatment.

Loreta “Lita” Jamito

Before


The mass continued to grow and soon it was causing problems that she can’t bear.

Later on it was found out that the mass was cancerous and an immediate removal was necessary.


“Talagang kinukulit ko yung doctor, baka naman merong gamot na makakatunaw sa bukol ko?” she narrated, bugging her doctor with the question “Gagaling ba talaga ako kung maooperahan ang bukol ko?”

To her disappointment, the doctor said that there is no medicine or any other way but operation to remove her cyst.

Lita’s Doctor asked her to prepare P50,000 to cover operation expenses should she decide to undergo one. Deep in despair, knowing not where to find the money and with the uncertainty of whether the operation will do her good in the long run, she decided to delay, with a strong faith that she would find something that will help her ease her condition.

When Hilda Magno, Lita’s friend and a DXN distributor learned about her ordeal, she came along to introduce DXN, “Ate nabalitaan ko may cancer ka, i-try mo itong DXN.”

Lita right away got interested particularly after she read DXN’s About Reishi, where she discovered that Ganoderma is a potent mushroom that cleanses and strengthens the body particularly the pancreas.

Desperate to be healthy again, she did not follow the “1-2-4-6” formula but instead took one pair on the first day, two pairs on the second, three on the third until she reached five pairs on the fifth day, which she maintained.

On the seventh day of consumption, her chronic sinusitis had its worst but final attack. It did not bother her again ever since. This prompted Lita to trust DXN products, considering that her sinus had been suffering too long.

Though she wanted so much to take RG/GL regularly, her lack of resources hindered her to do so. Instead, she resorted to taking Lingzhi Coffee 3-in-1 alternately with Spica tea.

It was after three years, March 2004, when she was again admitted to a hospital — the threat was really serious. CT scan showed that she has three growing cancerous masses in her pancreas. She became very skinny with her tummy bloated.

She also developed diabetes, which almost caused her to lose sight. Complications in her lungs, also occurred.

With her faith in God and DXN products, she refused operation and consumed 5 pairs of RG/GL daily with two Roselle and four Spirulina candies instead. Gradually, her body showed evidences of recovery. And finally after three months of confinement her doctor endorsed that she can leave the hospital already. “Pwede ka nang lumabas kasi wala na kami gagawin sa ’yo. Lumabas sa CT scan mo totally wala ng bukol,” the doctor said to Lita.

Lita can’t believe what she just heard. “Doc talaga bang wala na yung bukol ko?” she asked her doctor in disbelief.

“Kung nandiyan pa ‘yung bukol mo, matagal ka nang wala dito,” her doctor responded.

Lita is very grateful to the Lord for giving her DXN. And the best thing, aside from her recovery, is her constantly growing network, which started from all her mates in the hospital ward including two nurses.

Lita is now on her way to become a Star Ruby. Wih her personal brush with death as a strong proof, it won’t be long before she reach the coveted Star Diamond Status<.

Ganoderma the Red Mushroom

"False Pregnancy Turns Cancer"


           
VOMITING AND FEELING STRANGE, Cristiana Ciudadano-Hinate of Malabon City, a mother of one, thought she was pregnant again. Indeed, an ultra sound test showed a small   growth in her womb. But it was no fetus. It was a growing tumor. After undergoing suction curettage, Cristy felt relieved. Three years passed, in June 2003, the same sensations came back. Again, Cristy submitted to a rigid test. This time, it was GTN stage 1. For the next four months, she had to go through five painful chemotherapy sessions. Within the first week of treatment, her hair began to fall.
            In August, she was introduced to DXN by Luzviminda de Luna, owner of the grocery where Cristy was working. At once she was advised to take RG-GL (ReishiGano and Ganocelium) capsules using the 15-15 formula (15 pairs of RG and GL per day). Gradually, she felt less pain by chemotherapy. By October, Cristy was strong enough to check out of the Fabella Hospital in Manila. When she was feeling and looking much better, Cristy gradually ceased her RG-GL regimen. Instead, she shifted to another DXN product, Lingzhie Coffee 3-in-1. She also took Spica Tea. In December her tests revealed a dramatic change. She was totally negative for cancer. By this time (April 2004) Christy has resumed a normal, vigorous life with her family.
            “I thank God, my business partners Luz de Luna, Amalia Pernito, Emma Tariga and Antonieta Suyom for supporting me during all my painful days and the wonderful products of DXN”, Cristy exclaims.●
