Reishi Red

Reishi (or Lingzhi in China) has been used for millennia to improve health and vitality. Reishi acts as an adaptogen, providing vital support for all bodily systems while leaving immune responses unchanged; helping restore hormonal balance while soothing central nervous system responses.

Reishi has long been considered an anti-aging and cancer preventative agent. Reishi stimulates natural killer cells to identify abnormal cells such as cancerous ones and is said to prevent their proliferation as well as promote regeneration of damaged tissues. Studies suggest reishi may even help promote cell regeneration!

Studies have also demonstrated its ability to reduce fatigue and promote longevity by improving blood circulation, strengthening immune function and decreasing stress levels.

Reishi is considered one of the most powerful herbs used in Chinese herbal medicine, often combined with others such as ginseng and licorice root for its energy-enhancing effects.

This tea blend brings together antioxidant-rich chaga and adaptogenic reishi mushroom in a delicious red rooibos blend with flavorful notes of roasted carob, elderberries and vanilla for an irresistibly comforting cup. Both adaptogens give the body natural energy without creating caffeine spikes in its system.

This capsule-based product utilizes a high concentration of Red Reishi extract. This powder capsule product contains mycelium and fruit body grown on grain (usually rice) substrate for easy ingestion; unlike liquid extract, powder capsules don’t contain an entire mushroom so are easier to take. However, their bioavailability may differ significantly, which should be considered when comparing products side-by-side.

Reishi Rose

Reishi (or Lingzhi in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is revered for its extraordinary healing powers and is commonly recognized for balancing one’s vital energy, or Qi, to maintain balance within their bodies. Reishi has been used throughout TCM history and is sometimes called “The Mushroom of Immortality.”

Reishi tea’s gentle flavors and benefits help promote calmness, relieve anxiety and encourage restful sleep. Plus it contains antioxidants, which are great for skin health and immunity! Our version features rooibos and cinnamon to round out its earthy notes for an enhanced experience.

Our Rest Wellness Blend was specifically crafted to aid in the pursuit of restful slumber.

This soothing herbal blend features rose petals, buds and hips for an aromatic and relaxing cup. We’ve added reishi, shiitake and tremella mushrooms for cell hydration, cognition support and heart chakra support as well as tulsi to help ease menstrual cramping while being anti-inflammatory.

Reishi mushrooms belong to a select class known as functional fungi, providing multiple health benefits beyond nutrition. Studies have demonstrated its power to strengthen and support immune function while its 1,3-1,6 beta-glucans promote healthy gut microbiome(1). Reishi may also help support heart health by supporting natural mechanisms within our bodies for controlling cholesterol levels that already fall within healthy range(2) – all this while offering soothing flavorful floral notes when taken hot or iced! This blend makes an enjoyable beverage!

Lion’s Mane

Lion’s Mane mushrooms (Hericium erinaceus), with their white surface covered by long, white spines known as Lion’s Mane have long been used as traditional herbal treatments in East Asia and eaten as food, while also being utilized as traditional medicine to improve cognition and brain health. Now, new research indicates they could possibly boost cognition further while supporting its success.

Preclinical studies conducted on Lion’s Mane extract demonstrated its ability to regenerate nerve cells in laboratory settings. Nerve cells play an integral part of our brains’ memory function and help process new information, with mice administered Lion’s Mane extract outperforming control group mice on maze and word recall tests.

Lion’s mane mushroom may also possess immune-enhancing effects. The beta-glucans present in Lion’s mane may stimulate phagocytosis and improve overall immunity(2). Furthermore, Lion’s mane may help to soothe digestive distress and promote regular bowel movements(3).

Other research suggests lion’s mane may help treat multiple sclerosis (MS), an autoimmune condition of the central nervous system. People living with MS have an overactive immune system which attacks myelin sheath – which protects nerves and allows them to transmit messages between nerve cells – leading to nerve cells transmitting messages more freely. Clinical trials indicate lion’s mane may help alleviate symptoms as well as slow progression(4).

More research needs to be conducted before lion’s mane supplements can be recommended as routine therapy for these uses. Always speak to your physician before trying any supplements, particularly if taking medications; they will recommend dosages suitable for you and avoid interactions between medications and supplements. A registered dietician nutritionist or licensed pharmacist may also offer guidance regarding dietary supplements.

Shiitake Genmaicha

Shiitake mushrooms are nutritional powerhouses, with numerous health advantages that range from immune enhancement, blood pressure control and cancer fighting properties to weight management and cholesterol reduction. Low in calories and fat-free, these fungi boast rich minerals such as potassium, B vitamins and vitamin D while their polysaccharides help boost cellular immunity, reduce inflammation and decrease cholesterol.

Our Shiitake Genmaicha blend combines earthy roasted flavors with umami-rich shiitake extract to produce an irresistibly tasty tea! The earthy mushroom taste and subtle bitterness from shiitake contributes to its unique blend, creating an exquisitely complex cup that’s ideal for those who appreciate all aspects of flavor in one sip!

Genmaicha green tea is an earthy and light beverage made with toasted brown rice that’s great to sip hot or iced, offering satisfying crunch from its crunchy grains. A great option for those seeking an alternative to black or coffee!

Shochu (pronounced sho-chuh) is a traditional Japanese spirit produced from sweet potatoes, rice or buckwheat and known for its distinctive fruity, floral and woody flavors. Enjoy it alone or add it as an ingredient in cocktails for an enjoyable beverage experience!

Shiitake Shochu is an invigorating drink perfect for any time of day! Simply mix your preferred genmaicha green tea with our Shiitake Shochu and serve over ice. Add an extra zesty kick by garnishing with a slice of lime!

Cordyceps

As with other mushroom extracts like Chaga, Lion’s Mane, and Reishi before it, cordyceps has quickly gained the interest of wellness-seeking consumers. This “zombie fungi” typically grows endoparasitically on insect larvae at high altitudes and contains cordycepin that may provide benefits ranging from improved athletic endurance and immune support to energy boost.

Cordyceps is well known for its adaptogenic properties, helping balance stress hormone levels and promote adrenal gland health, leading to reduced cortisol production, balanced energy levels, reduced cortisol production and resistance against chronic illness.

Cordyceps is an adaptogen and may help regulate blood sugar levels; recent research indicates it could even increase insulin sensitivity, which would provide cardiovascular protection. Furthermore, its compounds may have anti-inflammatory and immune-enhancing benefits.

China places great value in this resource, listing it as a 2nd grade state protected wild species and passing laws to ensure sustainable exploitation. Natural reserves and field laboratories have been set up in Sichuan County’s Xiaojin and Lhasa in Tibet’s Tibet in order to study climate, growth environment and co-evolution with local fauna; as well as genetic variation analysis using ITS sequencing of Cordyceps samples.

Even after substantial investments have been made in cordyceps resources, harvesting remains hazardous. A kilogram of high quality cordyceps can fetch upwards of $110,000 if supply outpaces demand; as a result of “wormrush”, prices have skyrocketed exponentially and created an industry worth billions of dollars – scroll any Chinese social media app in May and June and you’ll likely witness pickers toiling away at mountaintops with spectacular backdrops as the “wormrush” transforms this once simple folk remedy into multi-billions dollar industry!
