Can I eat Ganoderma lucidum in summer?

Of course, you can eat Ganoderma lucidum in summer, but it is recommended to eat real wild Ganoderma lucidum.

Ganoderma lucidum can efficiently enrich some elements in the environment, for example, the soil contains a very small amount of germanium, but the oak tree can enrich the germanium in the soil into trees, so the germanium concentration in the oak tree can be 100 times higher than that in the soil. But this tree is dead. Assuming that wild Ganoderma grows, this kind of wild Ganoderma can enrich germanium from this dead tree, and one or two Ganoderma can absorb all the germanium accumulated in the whole tree for a hundred years, and the organic matter in the wild Ganoderma will be absorbed. This is why domestic scientific research institutions have detected that organic germanium in wild Ganoderma lucidum is as high as 2000ppm, and inorganic germanium in soil is generally not more than 1.5ppm.

Organic germanium plays an important role in human body.

Ganoderma lucidum can not only enrich germanium, but also efficiently enrich harmful elements such as lead, mercury and arsenic in the environment. Even if ganoderma lucidum cultivators are especially careful, as long as the environment and culture medium contain a small amount of these harmful elements, they may be enriched into hundreds of times of cultivated ganoderma lucidum or ganoderma lucidum spore powder, which is why there are so many ganoderma lucidum spore powders exceeding the standard in China.

Ganoderma lucidum has a significant effect only if it is taken for a long time. Assuming that cultivated Ganoderma lucidum is rich in harmful elements such as lead, mercury and arsenic, long-term use is definitely not good.
