Why do the Chinese think so highly of Lingzhi?

Lingzhi is a medicinal fungus with a long history in China as a tonic and health remedy. (Western scientific name: Ganoderma Lucidum)

Lingzhi was highly ranked as an herbal medicine in Shen Nong Material Medica (Shen Nung Ben Cao Jing) which was published in the second century B.C. In it, 365 kinds of Chinese medicines were classified and explained.

The medicines were basically classified into 3 categories: 120 of them were declared to be "superior" medicines, another 120 were classified as "average" medicines, and the remaining 125 were placed in the "fair" category.

The "superior" medicines were also known "God's Herbs" and they were for perpetual youth and longevity--the medicines of the legendary wizards. In ancient times, only the royal family was allowed access to superior medicine.

Lingzhi is rated as No 1 of the Superior Herb category! In the Chinese medicine roll of honor, Lingzhi is considered even more valuable and beneficial than the more famous Ginseng! Indeed, it is known as the King of herbs in ancient Chinese medical textbooks.

In ancient time, Lingzhi can only be found in the wild and hence was expensive and rare. It was only in the last two decades that Lingzhi has been cultivated successfully in a production environment.
