The efficacy of fungal polysaccharides

The efficacy of fungal polysaccharides

Many people do not know about fungal polysaccharides. Fungal polysaccharides are a kind of living substance. They are enhancers and regulators formed by reactions caused by microorganisms. They can enhance immune functions such as cells. Fungal polysaccharides are complex substances, but many experts have conducted extensive research on them. There are also certain results. So today I will tell you about the effects of fungal polysaccharides.

Fungal polysaccharides have good therapeutic effects in the treatment of gastric cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer, etc.; when used in combination with chemotherapy agents, they have the effect of reducing toxicity and enhancing efficacy. Fungal polysaccharides combined with other drugs to treat chronic hepatitis B can improve the negative conversion of hepatitis B virus markers and reduce the side effects of antiviral drugs.

Most active polysaccharides can stimulate immune activity, enhance the phagocytic effect of the reticuloendothelial system on tumor cells, promote lymphocyte transformation, activate T cells and B cells, and promote the formation of antibodies. Thus, it has anti-tumor activity to a certain extent. However, it has no direct killing effect on tumor cells. Active polysaccharides can reduce the incidence of methylcholanthrene-induced tumors and are particularly valuable for leukemias and lymphomas that are prone to widespread metastasis and are difficult to treat surgically and with radiotherapy.

Classification

Fungal polysaccharides

Active polysaccharides are divided into two categories: pure polysaccharides and heteropolysaccharides. Pure polysaccharides are generally composed of more than 10 monosaccharides connected by glycosidic bonds, and can be divided into straight chain structures or branched structures. In addition to sugar chains, heteropolysaccharides may also contain peptide chains or lipid components. The active polysaccharides in the health care industry mainly include Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide, Lentinus edodes polysaccharide, Hericium erinaceus polysaccharide, Poria cocos polysaccharide, Tremella fuciformis polysaccharide, etc.

Fungal polysaccharides

The World Health Organization divides health products into four generations:

1. Nutritional type: Royal jelly, malted milk, etc., increase nutrition, improve physical fitness, should be taken for a long time, but have no obvious therapeutic effect.

2. Fortified type: protein powder, vitamins, calcium in cap, etc., which can replenish what the body lacks, but cannot prevent loss, so it needs to be taken frequently.

3. Functional type: Chitosan, Melatonin, etc., have a regulatory effect on certain organs of the body, but cannot provide comprehensive conditioning.

4. Functional factor type: Edible fungi and compound combinations have health-care and therapeutic effects on various organs of the body. The most advanced generation, in line with the FAO's regulations on health products: ① pure natural; ② all-round conditioning (compound combination);

③ No dependence; ④ Effective (response within 3-15 days)

Products that are well-known and widely used in the market include Infinitus Zengjian Oral Liquid, Oriental Beili Double Mushroom Oral Liquid, Huitianli Ganoderma Lucidum Mycelium Capsules, etc.
