TCM practitioners are increasing faced with elderly clients that require simple solutions to their health care requirements. While acupuncture can address most neuromuscular conditions that reduce pain, many clients can also benefit from mushroom nutrition where TCM formulas are not available or prohibitive due to lack of herbs.

The mushrooms Yun Zhi (Coriolus versicolor) and Hou Tou Gu (Hericium erinaceus) have played a role in TCM formulas focused on the aging process. TCM concepts such as humoral immune response (weiqi) and anti-aging brain response (bu nao) are attributed to these mushrooms.In this course, practitioners will learn the TCM profile of 10 mushrooms and the best strategy to use mushroom nutrition to complement acupuncture according to TCM differential diagnosis.

As well as its general health enhancing action, Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi) has been shown to have specific anti-inflammatory properties and this traditional usage has been linked to the isolation from the herb of a family of ganoderic acids, triterpene compounds with a basic lanostane structure which exhibit anti-inflammatory properties.

The compound Ganoderic Acid C isolated by careful fractionation of a non-polar solvent extract of Ganoderma lucidum was found to account for most of the anti-inflammatory activity from the herb as determined by in-vitro tests such as histamine release from mast cells.

Consequently, the potential use of Ganoderma lucidium (Reishi) supplementation could offer a safe and effective alternative for the reduction of histamine-mediated immune responses.

Study Design

Open label study in United Kingdom in patients. Patients were interviewed during the Ganoderma (biomass) supplementation period, to assess changes in perceived quality of life, with reference to general hay fever symptoms.

Supplementation Scheduling

Supplementation commenced at 3 grams (6 tablets x 500 mg) per day and was maintained at this until the symptoms abated, at which point it was reduced to a maintenance dose of 1.5 grams (3 tablets x 500 mg) per day until the end of the hay fever season.

Mushroom nutrition in hay fever does not suggest that an inhaler should not be used for emergency use and mushroom supplementation is not a substitute for a medical prescription.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) on the brain and role of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in mushroom nutrition.

The brain has a large potential oxidative capacity but a limited ability to counteract oxidative stress.

When the rate of free radical generation exceeds the capacity of antioxidant defences, oxidative stress ensues with consequential severe damage to DNA, proteins, and lipids. Oxidative stress has been implicated in mechanisms leading to neuronal cell injury in various pathological states of the brain, including neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
Superoxide dismutase is essential to counteracting reactive oxygen species (ROS), or superoxide radicals. Superoxide dismutase measured in samples from edible mushrooms, revealed high activity. The highest SOD activity, however, being measured in Pleurotus ostreatus and Hericium erinaceus.

** Coriolus-MRL improves biomarkers of Meniere disease and symptom scores **

Meniere Disease (MD) is a clinical syndrome that affects approximately 12 in 1000 people worldwide. It is characterized by episodes of spontaneous vertigo associated with fluctuation, half low frequencies of Neurosensory Hearing Loss (SNHL), tinnitus and hearing fullness in one or both ears.

To date, the cause of MD remains largely unknown, although growing evidence suggests that oxidative stress and neuroinflammation can be critical to its development.
There is currently no cure for this distressing neurodegenerative condition.

The effects of mushroom preparations are a sphere of growing interest in regards to health benefits in various pathologies, particularly those related to oxidative stress and free radical-induced cell damage.
With this in mind, researchers at the University of Catania researched whether a biomass preparation of Coriolus versicolor mushroom (Coriolus-MRL) * could produce appreciable effects on patients suffering from MD, and whether this could provide a greater understanding of pathology of the disease.

In December 2019, the International Journal of Molecular Sciences reported the results of an open clinical trial conducted in 40 patients with cochlear neurosensory hearing loss. 5 In this trial, 22 of the patients were treated with Coriolus-MRL (3 g / day for 2 months), and the remaining 18 were not treated.
At first (before treatment) and at the end of the 2-month study, researchers measured symptoms in both groups.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31906226/

The psych emotional status of all patients was evaluated through a POMS Profile questionnaire. Total mood disturbance improved significantly in patients treated with Coriolus-MRL but remained unchanged in untreated patients (Table 1).

A significant improvement was observed in five of the six measured mood parameters: anger, confusion, depression, fatigue and tension; only the vigour remained unchanged. All parameters in untreated patients remained unchanged.

Summary

Mood and tinnitus improved in patients treated with
Coriolus-MRL.

Along with changes in symptoms scores, Coriolus-MRL supplementation was found to reduce both the response to oxidative stress and cellular stress response, measured by the following biomarkers.

Oxidative Stress
(a) Changes in lipoxin lipoxina levels
b) Changes in 4 levels of HNE
(c) Changes in UWL levels of plasma and lymphocytes
(d) Changes in protein carbonyls
e) Changes in levels of inisoprostane PGF2 alpha-VI
f) Changes in levels of 2,3 isoprostane PGF2 alpha
(g) Changes in levels of 11-dehydro TXB2

Response to cellular stress
(a) Changes in levels of Crash Proteins 72 (Hsp 72)
b) Changes in Hemoxigenase Levels (HO-1).
c) Changes in Thioredoxn (Trx) levels
(d) Changes in Sirtuin levels 1
e) Glutathione (GSH) and Cambios-GC ligase changes
f) Changes in GSH / GSSG relationships

Summary

Patients treated with Coriolus-MRL had a more pronounced biological response to oxidative stress than untreated patients.

These results provide additional evidence that the underlying pathology of MD involves systemic oxidative stress and indicates that Coriolus-MRL can be a useful way to amplify body response to oxidative challenge and cellular stress in Meniere disease. This improved stress response seems to lead to measurable symptom relief (tinnitus reduction and mood enhancement).

The results offer the interesting possibility that nutritional supplementation with Coriolus-MRL may have potential as a modulator of the pathological process of MD and as a means to reduce the severity of symptoms in the sick. Study results strongly suggest that mushroom supplements can reverse oxidative damage, thus affecting the clinical course of pathological disease by MD.

* Can nutrition with mushrooms increase neurological reserve?*

A research team, based at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Coimbra (FMUC) and the Centre for Neuroscience and Cell Biology (CNC) in Coimbra, Portugal, has found that adult mice feeding Coriolus mushroom versicolor increased the complexity of new neurons (nerve cells) formed in the hippocampus, an area of the brain linked to emotions and memory.

Also contributed to this study by Dr. Jorge Valero, affiliated with the University of the Basque Country (UPV / EHU), Leioa, Spain and the Basque Foundation Ikerbasca for Science, Bilbao, Bizkaia, Spain.

Researchers discovered that feeding mice with Coriolus versicolor resulted in a significant increase in the length, volume and arborization (fine branching) of dendrites (extensions of finger-shaped neurons that allow them to communicate with each other) of the newly generated neurons in the hippocampus.

They also discovered that this increased ‘dendritic complexity’ was accompanied by an increase in the levels of the protein β-catenin within these neurons. β-catenin plays a major role in neurogenesis (the development of new neurons) through a process known as Wnt/β-catenin signalling.

Ferreiro, et al. Coriolus versicolor biomass increases dendritic arborization of neurons newly generated in the toothed twist of the hippocampus of mice. Oncotarget, 2018, Vol. 9. (No 68) pp. 32929-32942.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6152478/

Thus, the positive effect of Coriolus versicolor on the dendritic complexity of newly generated hippocampus neurons may be influenced, at least in part, by rising catenin levels and improving Wnt / b-signage catenina.

Researchers concluded that the Coriolus versicolor supplement has a previously unexplored neurogenic potential and could represent a preventative strategy for neurological conditions involving cognitive impairment.

* More studies need to be carried out.
