What exactly is "Tai Sui"?
Modern science has found that Ganoderma lucidum is a large myxomycete complex between protozoa and fungi. Its structure is not composed of a single cell, but a polymer composed of bacteria, myxomycetes and fungi. Studies have shown that Ganoderma lucidum feeds on microorganisms such as bacteria, yeast and mold spores. Take cellulose, chitosan, chitin, etc. As a nutrient, it is rich in protein, nucleic acid, candida and Geotrichum candidum.
In the vicissitudes of billions of years, many species have been annihilated and extinct, but Tai Sui can still reproduce to this day, which shows its strong vitality. It grows in an anaerobic environment 20- 100 meters underground, lives in soil and depends on water, so it will not rot and deteriorate in water. At the same time, this slime mold mainly depends on spores and hyphae, which is very active and can be cut and regenerated at will. However, it is by no means the endless growth of everyone's legend. If it can grow rapidly, it will not be rare.

The medicinal value of traditional Chinese medicine is doubtful;
On the afternoon of July 20 16 16, the engineering team accidentally dug up a soft white meat when transplanting trees in Mengcheng North Road, Hefei City. Mr. Xie didn't know what it was at first, and it was not until his son arrived that he discovered that it was suspected to be a rare treasure rumored by the people-Tai Sui. Appraised by Wang Dequn, a professor at Anhui University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Mr. Xie's excavation is really too old, but Professor Wang is cautiously skeptical about the medicinal value that is too old among the people.
It is widely rumored on the Internet that Tai Sui is the elixir that Qin Shihuang sought all his life, which can prolong his life. Tai sui has been circulated and eaten by the people. It is not a common Chinese medicine in history, because it is too rare to be used as medicine frequently. Therefore, its existence, function and efficacy have been controversial in the field of biology.
Although it is recorded in many ancient books that "meat ganoderma lucidum" has the effect of enhancing human immunity, in fact, the types of fungi are very complicated. Even if it is really old, it may be attached with various harmful organisms or toxic substances. Don't take it easily until you know the composition of matter in your later years.
