BACKGROUND
Start the Diet Now Advertisement
Japan Lingzhi is a kind of mushroom that is referred to as the “herb of spiritual potency” because of its presumed health benefits and few side effects. But recently, the FDA has put out a warning for diet supplements that contain this substance. While lingzhi itself may offer a host of health benefits, when used as a diet supplement, it also often contains the stimulant sibutramine, an appetite suppressant that acts in a similar way to amphetamines.
Japan Lingzhi diet supplements may come in an array of different products. Some of the more popular are the 2 Day Diet or the 2 Day Diet Japanese Linghzi. Lingzhi may also be referred to as Japanese Reishi. These products have been warned for use by the FDA because of their potential to cause heart problems, heart attacks and stroke.
Do You Know the Best Diet Pills of 2024?
PRO
- None to speak of
CON
- Dangerous side effects associated with diet pill products containing lingzhi
- FDA warning
- Any weight loss will be short lived
INGREDIENTS
The ingredients of a product containing Lingzhi will vary. But keep in mind that the ingredient listing of foreign diet products is not always accurate so you don’t know exactly what you are ingesting.
ADMINISTRATION
Dosage instructions will vary according to the product. Lingzhi products come in capsule and tea forms.
DIET and EXERCISE
There are typically no diet or exercise recommendations given while taking Lingzhi-containing diet products.
CONCLUSION
Lingzhi is a kind of mushroom that may offer significant health benefits. But unfortunately, diet products that often contain lingzhi, also contain sibutramine, a dangerous stimulant that has been cited by the FDA for its potential to induce serious and sometimes fatal side effects.
Since the product’s label may not contain the exact ingredients contained in it, it is important to avoid these products all together and instead talk to your doctor about a healthy and safe weight loss plan.
Common Misspellings

i started the pills about 3 weeks ago and at first all i had was the dry mouth which happens with most diet pills so i thought everything was fine.. ive lost 11 lbs so far and that great but .. i have started to have other side effects that worry me.. such as i literally messed my pants last night with no warning until it was too late.. and if that wasnt bad enough i constantly feel like i have something either stuck in my throat or like i want to throw up.. because these symptoms did not start at the very beginning im not sure if im actually sick or if its the pills.. i was wondering if anybody else was feeling similar things.. and if so well then i would stop taking them because messing my pants is not something i would like to happen again

+I did the diet in march, lost about 15 pounds. Kept it off. I dont have any thing terrible to say about this drug. Its helped. I did experience DRY MOUTH after a week and a half as a side effect however. If you have never had dry mouth its really uncomfortable, but it will go away i want to say a week after you finish the pills. Sooo No biggy... =)

I've never had health problems prior to being on the 2 day ling zhi diet. I took it for about 2 months straight. I lost weight rapidly (went from 141lbs to 118 in 2 months). I looked unhealthy, but I was thrilled that the pills worked. One day while at work, I experienced something that Id never experienced before...what I have now learned was a panic attack, was the single most frightening thing I had ever endured in all my life. I couldn't catch my breath. I felt intense confusion. I felt like if I didn't get up and leave, that I might just die. I ran to the restroom and sat in a stall for 20 minutes and tried to calm down and breathe deeply. I was eventually able to return to a normal physical and mental state, but I knew that I didn't want to feel that level of lack of control ever again.
posted Apr 23rd, 2012 6:37 amI stopped taking the ling zhi pills and I gained my weight back (of course) in a few months, but I was ok with it. I vowed I'd lose weight by legitimate means moving forward. For months I was fine. I went to work, had my few cups of coffee a day, and dealt with some stressful personal as well as stressful work situations for a while. Until one night I couldn't get to bed. I felt numbness and tingling in my left arm followed by a tight feeling, then it traveled to the left side of my face and down towards my legs. I freaked out , got up and started pacing around the bedroom while trying to shake it off. Horrible thoughts overcame me and it just aggravated that sensation. My fiancé took me to the ER (thank goodness I just got health coverage through my work or else I would've been majorly screwed). They did an EKG, monitored me for a while, then did an MRI of my brain and everything came out normal. They wrote it off as stress and anxiety.
Like I said before, I never had any of these problems prior to taking the 2 day diet. I still experience these symptoms. I just had another attack today while I was driving home and that's what prompted me to write this review. I am a 30 year old woman. I have a 7 year old daughter, a fiancé, a job, and all the responsibilities that come along with that. I wouldn't say that I have any more stressors than the average person. These attacks happen without any warning and I get the same symptoms I did from the day it started...while I was on the 2 day diet. I wish I had never put those pills in my mouth. I'm certain I wouldn't have random panic attacks or heart palpitations that are so bad that they cause me to cough.
Just wanted to share my story with any of you out there that have the same problems or are considering taking these pills. It's not worth compromising your health.

+I lost 14 lbs in 3 months, I am 5'6 and I weigh 120, I have not weighed that since I was a teen. I have been lifting weights and doing cardio and I feel great..
posted Jul 23rd, 2010 1:25 pmI have absolutely no side effects, I sleep fine and dont get shaky unless I dont eat but that is the way I have always been. I thought maybe they were just a placebo and I was just working very hard.
I am a little scared now as I do not like to put things like that in my body. I do love them and it sucks because now I cannot take them any longer

-Be careful with this product. I had really bad side effects, painful headaches, fainted, short attention spam, nausea, stomach bloated, constipation, fast heart rate and difficulty breathing. I advise no-one to buy this. Your life is worth more than deadly lingzhi diet pills.
