Doing an annual blood test is an important way to keep track of your overall physical well-being. However, you may want to do it more often if you:

During my 5th visit to Doublecrane Lingzhi Biotechnology Park (greenhouse farm) in Tainan, Taiwan, we were first shown a short video prior to the guided site visit. Below is a transcript and screenshots of the video.

Lingzhi has been termed as a top medicine and can promote longevity and consolidate body base. The Doublecrane group is a global leader in Lingzhi biotechnology, and has been focused on Lingzhi researches to explore the medical efficacies of Lingzhi for more than 30 years.

Baihe District, Tainan City

We choose to establish the Doublecrane Lingzhi Biotechnology Park in the Baihe region of Tainan because of the region's pleasant weather and fresh air. The amicable environment allows for the best Lingzhi to be harvested. Spanning over 5 hectares, the Park is home to the world's first Lingzhi incubation center. With an Experimental Greenhouse and 12 computer-controlled greenhouses, Doublecrane is able to supply the global Lingzhi market with premium raw materials. 

Lingzhi greenhouse

The 2 biggest difficulties in Lingzhi research are species R&D and cultivation management. Out of the over 200 species of Lingzhi in the world, fewer than 20 can be used as raw materials. In other words, the strain is the key to determine the efficacy of Lingzhi.

Furthermore, R&D, reproduction and cultivation of various species, are core to Lingzhi biotechnology. After many years of reproduction and R&D, as well as DNA analysis, medium testing and experimental greenhouse cultivation, we have selected strains with the most potential to cultivate in our greenhouses.

By observing different stages of growth, and through many trials and errors, we have identified the best conditions for Lingzhi growth. These results are used as important indicators in Lingzhi mass cultivation. This is also a very important step in the quality control of the Lingzhi spawn.

Spawn preparation & regeneration

After strains have been chosen, the next step is to set up the proposal for mass production. First of all, every step of the inoculation process must be completely bacteria-free to avoid contamination.

Our Liver and Kidneys are vital for our survival so it's crucial to take care of them. Lingzhi can help us move closer to achieving this goal. In July 2024, Shuang Hor has organised a seminar to help us understand better how to take care of these 2 organs. The invited speaker was Ms Yu-Chi Cheng.

> Functions of liver and kidneys.

> How do the liver and kidneys work together.

> Causes of liver problem.

> 3 Stages of liver failure.

> Symptoms to tell if your liver is healthy or not.

> Recommended Lingzhi products for liver.

> 4 experiments proving the protective effect of YKi and YKK/S for liver.

> Testimony on liver cancer.

Our liver is the largest solid organ in our body and performs over 500 essential functions.

Some of the important Functions include:

i) Produces albumin

Albumin is a protein that keeps fluids in our bloodstream from leaking into surrounding tissue. Albumin also binds and carries hormones, vitamins and enzymes throughout our body.

ii) Produces bile

Bile is a fluid that aids the digestion and absorption of fats in our small intestine.

iii) Regulates blood clotting

Blood-clotting coagulants are created utilising vitamin K, which can only be absorbed with the help of bile.

iv) Filters blood

All the blood leaving our stomach and small intestines have to pass through the liver, which then extricates and removes toxins, by-products and harmful substances such as bacteria.

v) Regulates amino acids

Our liver ensures that amino acid levels in our bloodstream remain optimal. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein.

vi) Regulates glucose

Our liver removes excess glucose from our bloodstream and stores it in the form of glycogen. If our body needs extra energy, it converts the glycogen back into glucose.

vii) Stores essential vitamins and minerals

The liver stores vitamins A, D, E, K and B12, as well as iron and copper.

If your liver fails, then all these functions will diminish progressively. There are 2 types of liver failure:

> Acute liver failure, where the symptoms occur within 6 months.

> Chronic liver failure, which can take years to develop. Some symptoms include fatigue, nausea, loss of appetite, diarrhea, blood in stools and vomiting.

As the liver failure advances, the Symptoms become more severe:

> Jaundice, due to build-up of too much bilirubin in your blood.

> Extreme fatigue.

> Disorientation, confusion and changes in sleep pattern.

> Hepatic flap, where the person has tremors and inability to keep his wrists extended when the arms are outstretched.

> Ascites and edema.

> Weight loss.

> Itchiness.

> Bruising and bleeding, due to lack of blood-clotting factors.

> Red palms and spider naevi on the skin, due to blood vessel malformations.

> Large spleen, due to increased pressure in the portal vein because there is increased resistance to blood flow in a damaged liver.

Why does the liver fail?

3 causes of acute liver failure are:

> Hepatitis B.

> Drugs and toxins, including overdose of paracetamol, antibiotics and anti-depressants.

> Auto-immune hepatits.

3 causes of chronic liver failure are:

> Hepatitis B and C, which can lead to liver cirrhosis.

> Long-term alcohol consumption, which can lead to alcoholic liver cirrhosis.

> Haemochromatosis, a genetic condition that causes your body to absorb and store too much iron.

If you get liver failure, what can you do?

Looking for a long-term solution which has no side effects?

Click on this link.. Liver and Lingzhi

Yes, this brand of Lingzhi called Yung Kien Ganoderma (YK1) has received accreditation from the Health Ministry of Taiwan for 2 important functions:

(i) The ability to prevent or reduce liver inflammation and treat hepatitis.

(ii) The ability to generate healthy liver cells and help reduce liver cells death.

Our liver is so very important for our overall health. It is such a blessing to have a product by my side that is Proven to take care of my liver and is Safe to consume everyday. My family and I have been taking this Lingzhi for over 10 years. Why don't you give it a try..?

Your liver is the largest internal organ in your body and performs thousands of functions to keep you going. These are some of the Signals you will notice when your liver starts crying for help:

- Dark spots on your face.

- Yellowing of the white of eyes (jaundice).

- Ascites (water retention in belly area).

- First pee in the morning is brownish in colour.

- Fingernails or toenails look dull, change colour, thicken, become brittle, have uneven surface or become loose.

- Feel thirsty and have bad breath. From the TCM (traditional Chinese medicine point of view), this is due to Liver Qi not smooth, caused by stasis / stagnation. The accumulation of foul-smelling toxins in the body tends to give the breath a musty and foul odour.

How to Protect Liver Functions?

1. Lifestyle - have sufficient sleep, do regular exercise, relax your mind and reduce stress.

2. Maintain healthy weight. Obesity can cause the liver to work harder, increasing the risk of fatty liver.

3. Avoid unnecessary blood transfusion, injection, ear piercings, tattoos and sharing of toothbrush and shaver with others.

4. Avoid contact with blood-contaminated equipment or sharing cutleries to reduce the risk of contracting hepatitis B and C as these virus are spread via blood and body fluids.

5. Balanced diet. For a speedier weight loss, eat only low-sugar, high protein and low carb food. Unbalanced diet increases burden on the liver.

6. Food hygiene. Don't drink unboiled water or eat raw seafood as seashells can cause hepatitis A infections.

7. Avoid overeating, alcohol, smoking and processed food.

8. Three acupuncture points for nourishing the liver:

a) Tai chong point (indentation between 1st and 2nd toes).

b) Da dun point (inner part of big toe).

c) San yin jiao point (4 fingers above knob at inner ankle).

Testimonies

These 3 testimonies are extracted from "Healthy Ganoderma" Magazine issue 88, which is a quarterly publication by the Microbiological Research Foundation of Taiwan.

Case 1

Mr Shi Mingde is a hepatitis B carrier. He first detected a benign growth in his liver in year 2000, when he was donating blood. He had a relapse in liver cancer in 2006 and then in 2012. When he came to know about Lingzhi in 2012, he started consuming 9 sachets a day. He did not experience any healing reactions during this period. His liver function index became normal. When he was 78 years old, he could even go for a 34-day tour of 6 countries.

Case 2

In 2011, Mr Chen Yingsheng experienced these symptoms: edema of the feet, gets tired easily, ascites in belly, eyes are a little yellowish, feels drowsy but poor sleep quality and dizziness after waking up. His GPT and GOT readings are normal, but his liver heparin is high at 4.1 mg/dL (normal 0-1.3 mg/dL), and AFP (tumour marker) is very high 170 ng/mL (normal reading for Asians <20 ng/mL). Doctor informed him there is no medicine that can cure him. As his sister-in-law took Lingzhi for her liver problem, he followed suit. 3 months later, his AFP value became normal.

In 2015, he had a recurrence of fulminant hepatitis. The doctor advised that liver transplant is the only way. He started consuming high dose of Lingzhi. After 10 over days, his condition improved. He continued taking Lingzhi until to-date. He didn't need to undergo liver transplant. His blood pressure and blood lipids are normal.

Case 3

Mr Pan Xinhong is a hepatitis B carrier and has hereditary low platelet count. In April 2008, he suffered from severe sepsis caused by acute hepatitis which requires liver transplant. Just overnight, his liver bulged out, he had very severe ascites and his limbs were showing edema. He cannot eat nor urinate. While waiting for liver transplant, he consumed high dose of Lingzhi and Pollen. 8 months later, his liver function improved to a level that resulted in him not being eligible for health insurance if were to undergo liver transplant operation. It would cost him NTD2 million if he proceeded on his own.

in 2014, he was readmitted to hospital for 12 days due to complications arising from liver cirrhosis. The diagnosis states that he has cirrhosis with variceal bleeding, ulcerative colitis, gastrointestinal bleeding and urinary tract infection. He consumed high dose of Lingzhi and Pollen. He improved his daily routine. He also took Jia Hor Protein, Jia Hor Fiber and CEO Coffee. He took more veges and reduced red meat. He stopped working night shift. His liver functions has returned to normal, and his platelet index has also improved.

In November, 2023, Ms Chun-Ching Wu (Ginny Wu) presented 12 testimonies which illustrate how to effectively use Equivalent Target Lingzhi to help manage various health conditions. 

You may think the digestive system is pretty simple - food goes in, waste comes out. But of course, it is a lot more than that. The gut microbiome plays a vital role in one's overall health. Of the 300 to 500 different species of bacteria in the digestive tract, some are harmful to our health, but many are beneficial to us. 

However, the pitfalls of modern living eg. high stress levels, insufficient sleep, processed food and antibiotics can result in a variety of health problems. Many studies in the last 20 years have demonstrated links between gut health and the immune system, mood, mental health, autoimmune diseases, endocrine disorders, skin conditions and cancer.

The digestive system consists of the hollow organs i.e. oesophagus, stomach and intestines as well as the solid organs like the liver, pancreas and gallbladder. When people think of gut health, they usually focus on the stomach. They forget about the important roles played by the solid organs.

The liver makes digestive juice called bile, which helps to digest fats and vitamins. Bile is carried by the bile ducts from the liver to the gallbladder for storage until it is used. 

Liver problems can be caused by:

• Infections spread through blood or semen, or contaminated food, and result in illnesses such as hepatitis.
• Chronic alcohol abuse.
• Obesity.
• Certain medications.
• Certain herbal compounds.
• Genetic causes eg. build-up of iron or copper.
• Fatty liver disease which affect people with diabetes, HBP and high cholesterol.
• Autoimmune diseases.
• Liver cancer.

Yung Kien Ganoderma (YK1) has successfully obtained an accreditation from Taiwan government that confirms it is effective in treating liver diseases. The testing is done on the final product of YK1 (not just the raw material) before the certification is given.

As you can see from the certification above, the Health Ministry of Taiwan affirms that based on the results of animal tests, YK1 has the functions below:

(a) Helps reduce the indices of GOT and GPT.
(b) Helps increase the protein content in the liver.

If you know how to interpret the sickness in your body, you will be able to take care of them before they become serious. Our mental and emotional states contribute substantially to our physical health. 

This article is from a talk by Taiwan nutritionist Ms Yu-Chi Cheng, in conjunction with the launch of YKI ("Zen Pin" Lingzhi) on 6 April 2020. It comprises one of the 3 Target Lingzhi launched. It is presently available only in Singapore. Application has been submitted to the relevant ministries in Malaysia for approval to bring YKI into Malaysia. 

This article is from a talk by Taiwan nutritionist Ms Yu-Chi Cheng, in conjunction with the launch of YKK ("Shen Ji" Lingzhi) in Malaysia on 6 April 2020.

In our body, there are 3 main elimination channels - the wastes are expelled out through our sweat, urine and stools. In this detox process, our kidney plays a very important role as it's one of the main detox pipeline. It may seem like it's not a big deal as going to toilet is something we do everyday. But if the kidneys don't function properly, we will feel a lot of discomfort. Toxins which are stuck in the body will start to poison it.

YKK's main function is to take care of our kidney. If the kidney is healthy and it can flush out all the toxins, the rest of our body organs will also benefit and be healthy.

YKK is the first product derived from antelope Lingzhi. The main ingredient in YKK is lucidenic acid (one of the 200 types of ganoderic acid). The molecule size of lucidenic acid is extremely small and therefore, is able to easily penetrate into every body cell.
This lucidenic acid composition in YKK has received many patents and endorsements, including from China, Taiwan, EU, USA, Hong Kong and Singapore.


Functions and Benefits of YKK

1. Enhance kidney function

Our kidney is like a water purifier. On average, we drink about 2 litres of water a day. But our kidney has to filter about 200 litres of blood daily. After the age of 40, kidney function deteriorates by about 1% every year. Hence early kidney protection is very important, even when they are still healthy.


Experiment: 2 groups of healthy mice (simulating healthy humans) are (i) injected with stevia (sweetener) and (ii) injected with stevia and fed with YKK. The objective is to determine if YKK can increase the kidney's filtration capability (GFR) to excrete out the stevia.

Experiment result:
Top row: Even for mice with healthy kidney, the stevia still stays in the kidney after 60 mins (blue fluorescent colour is still bright).
Bottom row: For mice fed with YKK, the blue fluorescent colour has dimmed tremendously by 60 mins, indicating a faster renal metabolism rate, or better kidney function.
Bar graph: This experiment demonstrates that YKK effectively improves kidney's GFR function by 5 times.

Lingzhi is a natural healthfood. It is not a drug. Hence it can be consumed every day, without any side effects. It is a functional healthfood, which is different from nutritional supplements. We cannot substantially improve our health by merely taking supplements.

Natural food like rice, fish, veggie etc give us nutrients. But overconsumption of rice can give us diabetes and some veggies are laced with pesticides. This is what makes Lingzhi special.
Functional healthfood such as Lingzhi works for our body like a mechanic for a car. When you bring your car to the workshop, he repairs your car before it breaks down. Likewise, Lingzhi repairs our body before it breaks down.

Shuang Hor Lingzhi gives us so many health benefits that it would take a long time to detail them all. Here, let me share 5 key benefits.
1. Safe

What I mean by a Safe product is that we can eat it every day, eat for long term, eat for a lifetime. There is no side effects to our body. It can be taken by any one, including pregnant ladies and newly born babies, all the way till they reach old age.

Shuang Hor Lingzhi is cultivated in greenhouses and extracted using the Dual-Phase Extraction technology. Safety is guaranteed, unlike Lingzhi grown in the wild.

The dosage can range from 2 capsules up to 4, 12, 20 etc, depending on the needs of each person. A high dose is crucial to properly handle diseases like cancer or to prevent limb amputation due to diabetes. Consumption may be up to 1 or 2 bottles / day, but it is still very safe.

Lingzhi can be consumed by everyone, not only sick people. We are familiar with the saying Prevention is Better than Cure. Healthy people should take as maintenance. Sick people need it even more.

2. Blood Circulation System

Our body is packed full of blood vessels. We can see this because whichever part of the skin that is pricked, blood will ooze out. When the vessels are well connected, blood flow smoothly. A blockage in any part will impact on the circulation of our whole body. We will feel pain/numbness when there is blockage. When blood circulates smoothly, there will be no pain.

We tend to eat too much fats, oil, salt and sugar. This habit easily causes blockages to our blood vessels, and depending on which area is blocked, it can cause stroke, heart attack, kidney disease, haemorrhoids or even paralysis. Lingzhi has a component called Triterpenoid which can clear the blockages.

3. Immune System

Our immune system is very important to protect us against foreign invaders and it must be balanced. It is considered to be the best doctor in the world. But it cannot be too high or too low. If the immune system is too low, we can easily get a bacteria or virus infection, hepatitis or cancer. Lingzhi has the ability to strengthen it.

But the immune system should not be too high either because it can cause allergy which are triggered by food, medicine, temperature change or dust. An over-active immune system can cause auto-immune diseases such as SLE, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis etc. It starts to attack your own body's tissues and cells. Doctors usually only administer steroids. But Lingzhi can perform the function of steroids without causing any side effects. Lingzhi helps to regulate it back to a normal level.

4. Body Cells

Our body is made up of more than 200 types of cells. The cells for hair, eyes, heart, liver, skin are all different. For example, our hair needs to be cut regularly, but our eyebrows don't need to, despite both being hair and are located only several inches apart. When the cells are healthy, our tissues and organs will be healthy, and we will have healthy body system.

Our cells can be divided into 4 categories:

(a) Healthy - the fact that we can perform our daily activities means that the majority of our body cells are healthy.

(b) Injured - smoking, drinking, unhealthy diet and sickness cause injury to our cells.

(c) Mutated cells - can be caused by the environment, food, lifestyle etc.

(d) Dead cells.
Lingzhi can help to:

(i) Get rid of free radicals and toxins from the body. During this process, you will find that your sweat or stools smell very bad.

(ii) Protect healthy cells and prolong their lifespan.

(iii) Repair injured cells and help them recover.

(iv) Get rid of mutated cells and shrink cancerous cells. Control these cells so they don't spread and disturb the healthy cells.

(v) Intensify the growth of new cells to replace the dead cells and delay ageing. The longer we consume Lingzhi, the better the results.

5. Liver Protection

Liver is the biggest and one of the most important internal organs. It performs many functions including detoxification, bile drainage, blood glucose regulation, blood circulation and filtration and also synthesis and storage of amino acids, vitamins, protein and fats. Our liver is easily damaged from prolonged practices of unhealthy lifestyle e.g. sleeping very late and bad dietary habits. These habits will harm and burden our liver over long term.

Shuang Hor Lingzhi has been scientifically proven to be very effective for liver diseases. A healthy liver gives us a "colourful" life. An unhealthy liver makes our life appear black and white. Lingzhi protects liver cells and reduces the damage to liver.

In summary..

Lingzhi can be taken for a multitude of different problems, including infertility, cancer, constipation etc. Some of you may wonder how can one product be taken for so many different conditions. It's because Lingzhi addresses at the root level (v. symptoms level) and gives these 5 key benefits:

a) Safe - everybody can eat as it is a functional health food.
b) Clears blockages in our entire blood circulation system, and is able to resolve a lot of pains and aches.
c) Regulate our immune system. Lingzhi complements western medication treatments.
d) Help body cells at all their different stages of life.
e) Protect liver.

Yung Kien Pollen

Lingzhi's role to our body is like a mechanic to a car - check and repair the organs and parts before they break down.
It must be complemented with nutrients so our body has the energy to function, like pumping petrol for a car. Bee Pollen is the best nutritional supplement for our body as it possesses more than 200 types of nutrients. Both should be taken together as they work synergistically and achieve the ideal result.
