Favism is caused by a deficiency of an enzyme called glucose-6-phosphotase. This deficiency can cause exposure to many different substances, such as broad beans, paint, and camphor balls. These substances can cause favism. Favism is a bit like an allergic symptom, and even the glomerular permeability in her kidneys is increased, and blood may come out in her urine. Ganoderma lucidum has an inhibitory effect on this allergic reaction, and it also has an inhibitory effect on the kidney's reaction in this regard. Therefore, Ganoderma lucidum is very helpful in treating the symptoms of favism.
