Can I take Ganoderma during menstruation?

　　Women can generally consume lingzhi (Ganoderma lucidum) during their menstrual period, and moderate intake is recommended.

　　For women with good physical health and no special medical conditions, moderate consumption of lingzhi during the menstrual period is acceptable. Lingzhi has functions such as regulating the immune system, relieving fatigue, and enhancing physical strength; moderate intake may help alleviate some discomforts during menstruation. If menstrual symptoms are mild, such as slight abdominal pain or fatigue, moderate lingzhi consumption might help relieve these symptoms.

　　Lingzhi also has a calming effect. Women may experience mood swings, irritability, or other conditions during menstruation due to physical discomfort and hormonal changes. Moderate consumption of lingzhi may help relieve tension and improve sleep quality. However, individuals differ in body constitution and response to lingzhi. Some women may experience adverse symptoms, such as abdominal pain or diarrhea, after consuming lingzhi during their menstrual period.

　　Women should maintain a diversified diet during menstruation, ensuring sufficient intake of nutrients such as proteins, vitamins, and minerals to meet the body's needs.
