Mushroom WellnessOct 10, 2022
When a mushroom has been revered by herbalists for centuries, you know it’s worth checking out. Reishi is known for its dark red and brown color, glossy exterior, big fan shape, and earthy flavor. Additionally, our herbalists love Reishi for its ability to support the immune system and liver health.*
Reishi is an exciting herb with a long history of use in Chinese and Japanese herbalism. There are even records of Taoist monks traditionally using this mushroom in their meditation practices over 2,000 years ago.1 In Chinese, Reishi is called “Ling Zhi.” The Chinese characters for Ling Zhi are portrayed as a “shaman crying for rain” to signify its divinity.
Reishi typically grows on hardwood roots or trunks, bearing a reddish-brown fruiting body with a smooth surface and kidney shape. As with all Herb Pharm products, our Reishi tincture's ingredients are sourced from the finest and crafted for powerful efficacy.
We prepare Herb Pharm Reishi liquid herbal extract from the dried whole fruiting body of Certified Organic Ganoderma lingzhi mushrooms grown on wood logs and/or chips. We start extraction through the traditional Chinese method of making a concentrated water-extraction tea. Then, we combine the tea with our Reishi alcohol extract. The result is a combined extract with water-soluble and alcohol-soluble mushroom compounds.
If you love mushrooms, we have great news for you. Herb Pharm is pleased to introduce Mushroom Wellness, our exciting new brand offering high-quality mushroom products that are Certified Organic, US-grown, and contain verified levels of beta-glucans. And because every Mushroom Wellness product includes Reishi, there’s plenty for fans of this superstar mushroom to add to their wellness rituals.
You’ll notice a few points of difference between Mushroom Wellness Reishi capsules and the Herb Pharm Reishi liquid herbal extract – including that Mushroom Wellness Reishi capsules (and all Mushroom Wellness products) are made with both the mushroom mycelium and fruiting body.
