In this article, based on the results of tests of blood biochemical indices AST, ALT, GGT, we determined that the influence of ethanol in alcohol on the structure of liver function is very large. At the same time, the ability of Ganoderma lucidum (liveroderma lucidum) in protecting the liver from the impact of alcohol is highly effective
