How do you care for a lingzhi bonsai?
Lingzhi bonsai has relatively high care requirements and is more prone to problems from improper care than other flowers.
1. Lingzhi is a fungus that likes high humidity. Spray water frequently every day, and the water quality must be clean with a neutral pH. The water temperature must not be too low.
2. Lingzhi likes high temperatures and has a narrow growth temperature range. The optimum temperature is 25-28°C. Below 25°C, the fruiting body grows slowly and the color of the outer shell is also poor; above 35°C, the fruiting body will die.
3. Lingzhi is an aerobic fungus, and the care environment must be well ventilated. If the CO2 content is too high, it cannot open its cap and grows into antler-shaped branches.
4. Lingzhi requires more than 80% shading for normal growth. Light has a clear inhibitory effect on mycelial growth, and it grows most vigorously in a dark environment.
What benefits does lingzhi have?
1. Enhances immunity
The lingzhi polysaccharides that lingzhi is rich in can improve the body's immunity, increase the body's ability to tolerate hypoxia, eliminate free radicals, and improve the metabolic capacity of DNA, RNA and proteins in the liver, bone marrow and blood, thereby achieving the effect of enhancing the human body's immunity.
2. Anti-tumor
Lingzhi polysaccharides are one of the most effective components in lingzhi. They can effectively inhibit the spread of cancer cells, improve the body's immune function, and enhance patients' own ability to prevent and fight cancer. Lingzhi can also promote the production of endogenous anti-cancer substances such as interleukin, promote the phagocytic function of monocytes and macrophages, and enhance the human body's hematopoietic capacity, especially the level of white blood cells. Therefore, lingzhi has now become the first choice for anti-tumor, cancer prevention and adjuvant cancer treatment.
3. Prevents and treats cardiovascular disease
The lingzhi polysaccharides, lingzhi polypeptides, organic acids and other substances contained in lingzhi can effectively dilate the coronary arteries, increase coronary blood flow, soften blood vessels, improve myocardial microcirculation, enhance the heart muscle's blood and oxygen supply capacity, and improve myocardial ischemia. In addition, lingzhi polysaccharides have the effect of lowering blood pressure, cholesterol and triglycerides, as well as preventing atherosclerosis.
