Reishi mushroom has long been revered by Traditional Chinese Medicine as an “elixir of life”. Now used in modern herbal supplements to fortify immunity, revitalize mind and support healthy circulation, Reishi has an earthy, savory and slightly smoky taste which sets it apart among teas. Plus it contains polyphenols (antioxidants that neutralize free radicals known to damage cells leading to premature aging), making Reishi a potency choice.

Reishi not only offers anti-aging benefits, but it’s also an effective digestive aid, mood enhancer and stress reducer. Studies have also proven its efficacy at treating high blood pressure, managing cholesterol levels and stopping liver disease progression.

Reishi tea has also been shown to promote healthy sleep cycles and boost immunity during times of stress, supporting the immune system as it does so. So effective has this ingredient proven itself that cosmetic products now include it as functional food!

Reishi can be purchased in various forms, but to ensure optimal results it’s best to create your own tincture or tea at home. That way you have full control of how much extract is added while being sure that only high quality mushrooms are being used – plus it only takes hours from start to finish!

Reishi mushrooms can be purchased dried from some Chinese herb stores, but for optimal results use fresh whole mushrooms that have been soaked overnight. To prepare the tea, simply boil water and combine with mushroom pieces; allow to simmer several minutes; once cool strain liquid and store in glass containers if desired – natural sweeteners such as honey may enhance this tea, but be mindful when adding excessive sweeteners like these!

Reishi can help to alleviate symptoms of chronic fatigue caused by factors such as immune system dysfunction, hormonal imbalances and stress. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated to increase white blood cell counts that fight infection while protecting cells against free radical damage caused by free radicals. Furthermore, Reishi has been found to stimulate production of gamma interferon antibodies, which target tumors or abnormal cells within the body.

Reishi has become a beloved healing supplement in the US due to its health-boosting and healing properties, making it available at most natural food stores and being widely utilized worldwide – particularly by Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners. Studies have demonstrated its usefulness for treating cancer, high blood pressure, hepatitis and nervous disorders; furthermore it’s thought to contain spiritual properties which may increase inner peace and promote mental well-being.
