Hello, I recently did an online search for Herbal Alternatives to Prednisone for Asthma. The E-How article stated the patients were given 20 grams of LingZhi, 3 grams of Gan
Cao, And 9 grams of Kushen daily. I went out and purchased 500 milligram capsules of Ling Zhi. How many of these am I suppose to take daily? I contacted the manufacturer and they told me to contact the person who wrote the article. I did and they told me to post question here. I am getting the typical circle jerk. Can anyone give me some guidance? The Gan Cao and Kushen came in tea form and the manufacturer from those two did give me an answer. He told me one quarter teaspoon was equal to one gram. There must be somebody else out there who would be interested in or has used these as an alternative to the nasty drug Prednisone. Prednisone works well for me but has lots of side effects. Insomnia etc.
Any guidance would be appreciated.

Re: Herbal Alternative for Prednisone
Interesting subject. Did you ever figure out the correct dose? Curious to know what side effects you experienced, if any.
