We were able to talk to President Toshikatsu Shukuri of "Wakan Pharmaceutical Research Institute Co., Ltd." behind the Meijiza Building in Nihonbashihamacho. The Japanese Medical Research Institute is a health supplement manufacturer based on crude drug products.
Chuo-ku has many pharmaceutical-related places, such as the head office of major pharmaceutical manufacturers and the birthplace of Jikei Medical University and Juntendo, but there were also pharmaceutical companies. Let's ask a lot of things right away.
**********************************
May rain George (5): First of all, when did you establish your company (Wakan Pharmaceutical Research Institute)?
President Shukuri (hereinafter referred to as the inn): It was 1982. We will celebrate the 37th year in January next year. In 2012, we moved our office from Higashinihombashi to our current location (Nihonbashihamacho).
5: Please tell me the details of your business.
Inn: Yes, we manufacture and sell approximately 20 types of health-assisted products and cosmetics, mainly crude drug products using medicinal mushrooms called Ganoderma Lucidum.

※It seems that the size of the palm is the best.
5: Ganoderma lucidum is that Chinese herbal medicine ...
Inn: That's right. However, although we are conducting joint research with China, the actual raw material is our own farm of about 7,000 tsubo in Tsumagoimura, Gunma Prefecture, where we grow Ganoderma lucidum.
In addition, "Chinese medicine" is a method of mixing chemicals using crude drugs and ingredients from China, and is the name used in Japan. There is also something unique to Japan, such as "black grilling". Herbal medicine is a medicine in which herbal medicine and ingredients are mixed according to individual symptoms, and returns the function of the disordered body to the health body that should be. Because it is a refreshing medicine, there are some side effects. We deal with health supplements using crude drugs, not Chinese herbal medicine itself. It's not a medicine.
Ganoderma lucidum is one of the highest peak crude drugs, but we have studied this Ganoderma lucidum and have accumulated a lot of evidence data.
▲Ganoderma lucid made of "black grilled". It seems that there is no tar because it is baked at an oxygen-free high temperature.
5: Oh, what does Ganoderma lucidum work for?
Inn: I can't say "effective" because it's not treated as a medicine (laughs), but it has a positive effect on various physical disorders. The easiest way to understand is to improve blood flow. In the first place, all illnesses appear in places where the blood flow of the capillaries is stagnant. If the blood flows smoothly to the end of the capillaries throughout the body, the symptoms of most diseases will alleviate and improve.
5: Thank you very much. I learned a lot. By the way, you seem to be very young,...
Inn: I'm 36 years old this year. In 2014, the predecessor president resigned as chairman and took over the role of president.
5: By the way, I think the name "Sukuri" is a very rare last name, but what are you from?
Inn: Yes, it's Oita prefecture. It seems to be a rare last name with only about 1,300 people nationwide, but it still seems that Oita is the largest.
5: Finally, please give me a word to everyone who is watching this blog.
Inn: Health is very simple, with three types: blood flow, sleep, and physical strength. At present, there is no more urgent treatment than Western medicine, such as fractures, injuries, organ damage, and distress, but treatment of chronic diseases such as diabetes, recovery of physical function after surgery, improvement of patient health quality Western medicine is a weak field. We are developing products that can help you with the so-called "non-illness" stage before being diagnosed with illness, the recovery of health after illness and surgery, and the creation of a body to prevent illness.
We will continue to work on research and product development in line with the challenges faced by many people in recent years, such as cancer and dementia.
5: Thank you very much.
