These chemicals belong to five different groups: triterpenoids (ganoderic acids, ganoderenic acids, and glycyrrhizin); flavonoids (liquiritigenin, isoliquiritigenin, 3-methoxylaidzein, and formononetin); phenolics/ligans (wuweizi alcohol, aschantin, and schisandrins); sterols (ergosterol, ergosterol peroxide); and coumarins (cniforin B).
