Tucson, United States (IBwire.com - November 06, 2012)  

Locally owned E-Juice Plus Inc announced today that it will be blending E-Juice with Ganoderma. Company officials are expected to improve the quality of the e-liquid used in vaporizers to mimic the smoke produced by cigarettes and therefore making it healthier.

An electronic cigarette (E-Cigarette) is not a cigarette. It is a metal tube made to look like a cigarette, with a battery, heating element and cartridge containing the substance to be vaporized. The substance is usually a mixture of propylene glycol, glycerin, flavoring, and a specified quantity of nicotine. When the vaper (person using the E-cigarette) inhales, an LED lights indicating that the unit is working. When he or she exhales, there is a visible cloud of vapor that disappears within a few seconds.

E-Juice Plus is adding Ganoderma to the blend; Ganoderma is the extract of the mushroom Ganoderma Lucidum, also called Reishi in Japan or Ling Shi in China. In Traditional Chinese Medicine this mushroom is valued for it’s over 400 bioactive compounds such as triterpenoids and polysaccharides which have been used in Asian medicine for over 4000 years. These bioactive compounds are renowned for its support of healthy liver function, reducing hypertension, anti-cancer effects and are used to promote longevity. As is the case with many botanicals, the exact beneficial compounds present in Ganoderma Mushrooms are not definitively known at this time but research continues.

In recent years the focus of research with Ganoderma has been on its immuno-enhancing and anti-tumor activities. While the exact mechanism is unknown, a large numbers of studies have shown that Ganoderma may modulate many components of the immune system such as the antigen-presenting cells, NK cells, T and B lymphocytesm, which are pivotal to initiating a primary immune response. Research suggests that it may be through this immune modulation that Ganoderma’s apparent anti-tumor effect may be achieved. In 2005 a study found that Ganoderma polysaccharides "effectively promote the activation and maturation of immature dendritic cells" which interact with and stimulate T and B cells, yielding further evidence that Ganoderma’s value comes from its ability to enhance immunity response.

E-Juice Plus uses Ganoderma Extract that has a powerful 4:1 extract standardized to 10% polysaccharides. This formula ensures that all compounds naturally occurring in Ganoderma are present in the product while providing the highest, balanced, concentration of polysaccharides.

Officials of E-Juice Plus indicate that the blend is available at their on-line store at www.hejplus.com.
