Reishi mushrooms are functional fungi with powerful healing effects on several body systems. Reishi is often considered an adaptogen, helping the body adapt to stressors more easily while supporting balanced functions in general. Reishi also acts as an immunomodulator with beta-glucans present that support optimal functioning of immune system cells and systems. Reishi has long been used as medicine by traditional cultures worldwide to promote overall well-being and long-term health benefits.

Reishi boasts an earthy yet bitter flavor profile. Though some may find the bitter taste off-putting, Reishi’s robust flavors attest to its natural medicinal power.

Reishi mushrooms can be consumed in tea form for optimal benefits. Simply simmered for several hours in water before straining out and cooling to serve, this delicious beverage provides anti-inflammatory, energy, and sleep support properties, with optional sweetening using honey or other ingredients to cut back on its earthy, bitter taste profile.

This tea features the soothing flavor of roasted reishi combined with sweet and savory cinnamon and ginger spices for an enjoyable cup that can be enjoyed any time of the day.

Reishi can also be enjoyed as part of smoothies. Reishi extract contains low amounts of calories and fats, making it a delicious and nutrient-packed addition to a healthy diet. Reishi acts as an immunomodulator by providing polysaccharides and antioxidants which may stimulate white blood cell activity – helping the body regulate immune response mechanisms to prevent autoimmune responses.

Reishi is an antioxidant food, and when combined with other superfoods it makes an exquisite and beneficial smoothie. Reishi works particularly well when taken along with vitamin C-rich foods as this nutrient helps your body absorb it better.
