The focus of Traditional Chinese Medicine is on actively promoting good health and prevention. Reishi is one of the most highly regarded herbs for this purpose and the mushroom most often used as a general health tonic. * Modern clinical research also supports many of the uses for this mushroom as described in traditional medicine. It benefits immune health and liver function. Reishi is also frequently used by mountain climbers to combat altitude sickness and is contained in many of the performance enhancing herbal formulas used by Chinese athletes. * Hot water extracts contain 25-80 times more polysaccharides than mycelium grown on rice, liquid alcohol extracts or unextracted mushrooms. With a guaranteed minimum potency of 12% polysaccharide and 4% triterpenes, our Reishi mushroom extract matches or exceeds the quality of any Reishi extract now available on the market, and is the most cost-effective method of delivering the many benefits of this fine medicinal mushroom.
