What is Reishi?
Reishi (Ganoderma Lucidum) is a reddish-brown mushroom that grows on decaying tree trunks, typically oak and beech. Known as Lingzhi in traditional Chinese medicine, which means “mushroom of immortality,” Reishi has been valued for over 2,000 years for its potential health benefits. This mushroom is particularly renowned for its adaptogenic properties that help the body manage stress. Unlike typical mushrooms, Reishi has a tough, woody texture, making it unsuitable for direct consumption. Instead, it is processed into extracts, powders, or capsules to extract its beneficial compounds, such as polysaccharides and beta-glucans.
History of Reishi
Reishi boasts a rich history that spans thousands of years. In ancient Chinese texts, it was regarded as a symbol of longevity, spiritual strength, and overall health. Emperors and noble families prized Reishi for its believed ability to enhance vitality and promote longevity. Within traditional Chinese medicine, it was used to support wellness, strengthen the immune system, and balance the body’s energy, or Qi. Its popularity spread across Asia, reaching Japan and Korea, where it became a core component of herbal medicine. Today, modern science continues to study Reishi’s potential benefits, making it a widely-used supplement globally.
