Reishi Mushroom -
Why Reishi Is Top Super Mushroom!

Reishi mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum) is the oldest mushroom known for use as medicine, ranking #1 tonic in Chinese herbalism.

When taken on a consistent basis it can restore body systems and organs, returning them to their natural functioning state.

Called "the mushroom of immortality", reishi mushroom has been long revered in Chinese medicine for more than 4,000 years.

Immune System Modulator!

Reishi works with the immune system, adjusting and fine tuning, restoring immune health and liver function.

Part of its secret is its high level of polysaccharides and B-Glucans, which "educate" the body to deliver powerful immune responses, increasing the production of T-cells, B-cells, and NK cell activity. Research indicates its benefits for anti-tumor growth and the ability to lower blood pressure due to this rich source of glyconutrients.

Both medicinal mushrooms, reishi and cordyceps, are taking the stage in current research for there deep effects on immune system health and toning vital organ strength.

Amazing Adaptogen Tonic!

Reishi mushroom, like other adaptogens, offers a protective force that helps to make the, subconscious or conscious, adjustments needed to deal with change and life challenges.

It is used by many to lessen the effects of stress on the body and immune system. It provides an "inner calm" and nerve rejuvenation, helping one to sustain high levels of energy throughout the day. With reishi behind us, we can stand strong and unmoved through moments of chaos as they arise in our life!

(Use this mushroom with other Chinese herbs and Ayurvedic tonics in herbal tea alchemy for even greater effects.)

We are living in exciting times, but as technology and our environment shifts and expands it is especially important to be able to harmonize with new transformations and climatic conditions. With this ability, we are more freely able to create from a solid, more emotionally confident place that aligns with our truth and heart centered purpose!

Reishi Mushroom - Opens The Spirit!

The Chinese word for reishi is Lingzhi, which means "herb of spiritual potency". Together with its skill at calming the nerves and kidney system, it also has the capacity to relax the thoughts and provide a "peace of mind". It is noted by many to "open the spirit" and has been used by Taoists for achieving "spritual immortality" or enlightenment.

In this way, reishi mushroom is an amazing top superfood that, not only gives adaptogenic and immune boosting qualities, but helps to open the doorway to spiritual consciousness whereby we are all connected more deeply to source energy!
