Preventing Disease Before It Starts, Boosting Immunity; Innovating the Research Value of Ganoderma Lucidum
National health is the foundation of a nation’s strength. Both traditional Chinese medicine and modern medicine believe that “prevention” is better than “treatment,” and enhancing immunity is the key to disease prevention. As a representative of Chinese medicine, Ganoderma lucidum (lingzhi mushroom) is increasingly demonstrating its value in boosting immunity.
At the beginning of the conference, Secretary-General Li Chenyu, Vice Chairman Zhang Zhiqiang, President Yin Dakui, and President Liang Jianjiao delivered speeches for the event.
Speech by Yin Dakui, Former Vice Minister of the National Health Ministry and Founding President of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association
In his speech, President Yin Dakui pointed out that since the founding of the country, there have been four adjustments to the health work guidelines, with the only constant being “prevention first.” He reiterated that traditional medicine now plays a leading role in disease prevention, a collaborative role in the treatment of major diseases, and a core role in rehabilitation therapy. Regarding Ganoderma lucidum, President Yin believes it is an essence that must be inherited and further deeply studied. It is not only the responsibility of a single enterprise like Ken-Dao Industrial but requires everyone to contribute ideas and suggestions.
Vice Chairman Zhang Zhiqiang also mentioned in his speech that Ganoderma lucidum from Ken-Dao Industrial, as a product where medicine and food share the same source, is a health project implementing the disease prevention of traditional Chinese medicine. In the future, he hopes to combine the traditional food therapy industry with modern processing industry in development, allowing the products to be continuously upgraded and renewed.
Dr. Zuo Xiaoxia, Director of the Department of Nutrition at the Eighth Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital, delivered the keynote speech.
After the addresses concluded, Chief Pharmacist Cao Yang from Shunyi Hospital of Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital and Dr. Zuo Xiaoxia, Director of the Department of Nutrition at the Eighth Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital, delivered speeches titled A Brief Discussion on the Types of Ganoderma and Their Therapeutic Effects and The Health Benefits of Ganoderma, respectively. The two experts shared from a professional perspective the medicinal value of Ganoderma and its significant role in enhancing immunity.
One Hundred Experts Discuss Immunity, New Ganoderma Products Safeguard Health
At the conference, guests jointly launched the “Path to Immunity · One Hundred Experts Discuss Immunity” public welfare initiative and the Ken-Dao Ganoderma New Product Launch Ceremony.
It is reported that the “Path to Immunity · One Hundred Experts Discuss Immunity” public welfare initiative will, across the country, successively invite one hundred experts and scholars from various fields such as medicine, pharmaceuticals, nutrition and health, and traditional Chinese medicine. Through academic seminars, forums, open lectures, themed exhibitions, online live broadcasts, and other forms, they will educate the public on the importance of strengthening immunity, promote the shift in public health concepts from “treatment” to “prevention,” and contribute to the high-quality development of national health endeavors.
Sparks Fly in Ideological Collision, Thematic Discussion Provokes Thought
In the thematic forum on “Strengthening Immunity and Research on the Value of Ganoderma,” President Liang Jianjiao of Shanghai Ken-Dao Industrial joined guests such as Dr. Guo Qianying and Chairman Wang Xufeng for an engaging discussion.
Chairman Wang Xufeng provided an in-depth analysis of the importance of enhancing immunity for national health from five aspects: emotion, sleep, exercise, environment, and nutrition. He also expressed hope that the Ganoderma products developed with Ken-Dao Industrial’s 3.0 technology could help strengthen the immunity of the entire population and safeguard the health of the nation.
A small product carries great responsibility; even a tiny Ganoderma can hold immense value. The long march begins today—promoting the strengthening of immunity among all people benefits the present and will have lasting advantages for generations to come.
National health is a significant issue concerning the country, society, and the public. “Preventing Disease Before It Occurs, the Path of Immunity” is precisely the way of exploration, practice, and innovation to promote the realization of this grand goal. Let us all contribute our modest efforts to the cause of public health, offering our Ken-Dao hearts!
