This helps to determines product quality as there is a vast difference in quality between brands.
Reishi History
The Reishi mushroom has been revered in China for thousands of years and is utilized in Traditional Chinese Medicine as an immune system booster. Today it is widely cultivated using wood logs in shade houses. Scientific research for Reishi mushroom activity began in the 1970s in China and Japan. Scientists discovered highly active beta-glucans with the ability to potentiate innate immunity by activating immune cells. Also discovered were secondary metabolites called triterpenoids which were present in significant amounts and sets Reishi apart from all the other medicinal mushrooms.
Product Features
- POTENT 15:1 REISHI MUSHROOM EXTRACT POWDER: It takes 450g of reishi to make the 30g of reishi extract in this product. Made exclusively from 100% log grown, organic reishi mushrooms. These fruiting bodies are hand picked and dual extracted with hot water and alcohol to make the best extract possible. Extraction makes both the beneficial beta-glucans, triterpenes, plus thousands of other nutrients from the mushroom more bioavailable to us.
- WITH REISHI BITTER IS BETTER: When it comes to reishi, you want it to taste bitter. Bitterness is a key quality indicator of reishi. The bitterness comes from the beneficial triterpene compounds that develop through the mushroom’s interaction with the wood it grows on. Many reishi products do not taste bitter and this is a clear indication that they do not contain these beneficial triterpene compounds. Be forewarned, our product contains >4% triterpenes and you can taste the bitterness.
