Used widely as traditional medicines as well as in skincare and food products; Reishi also features widely in supplements and dietary beverages in North America and elsewhere.
Reishi contains more than 100 oxygenated terpenes. It was studied for its ability stimulate natural killer cell activation and boost overall immune system. Reishi has also been shown to have antiviral properties, anti-inflammatory and wound healing qualities. In addition, it reduces the oxidative stresses in the liver. Reishi can also protect against radiation and chemotherapy inflicted toxicity.
How is Ganoderma Lucidum raised?
Ganoderma "lucidum", also known as "red" reishi, is one species among many that are referred to by this name. This bracket or'shelf fungus' has an attractive, reddish brown hue. It can grow to over 40 inches long, wide, and 4 inch thick. This adaptogenic fungus is cultivated to provide healing benefits. There are over 400 species in Ganoderma, a vast genus.

Reishi reduces stress, increases longevity, and increases sexual vigilance. This reishi product combines powders, capsules and extracts.
This study was designed to establish the optimal growth parameters of G. lucidum on potato dextrose (PDA) slants and plates. Our results showed that the mycelial population increased as incubation temperatures rose, until they reached 30degC. At this point it peaked before declining over time.
Medicinal mushrooms have a positive impact on human health, and are highly valued around the globe. Ganoderma lucidum has been a popular mushroom variety for many years. It is valued by its many health advantages and is known as the red or "king" of medicinal mushrooms.
Reishi is used in Chinese medicine to treat hypertension, insomnia, and other conditions. The fungus contains active substances like triterpenes or polysaccharides, which may contribute to the medicinal qualities.

Both forms of G. lucidum (ethanolic and soluble in water) contain many of same beneficial components as water-soluble extracts. However, because ethanolic extracts are unable to separate polysaccharides and triterpenes from each other for maximum effectiveness, it is best to take both together for maximum benefit.
Studies have shown that G. Lucidum can inhibit adipocytes differentiation and produce hypoglycaemic effect, as well promote immune function to enhance resistance against diseases. Reishi contains polysaccharides which have also shown efficacy in this regard.
Ganoderma lumidum is unique due to the growing conditions. Harvesting can also be challenging: 1 kg of product requires harvesting from 1,000kg of spores! It's also one of the most expensive supplements available because it requires special techniques to collect them without crushing. ORGANO, however, has perfected this method so that our customers can enjoy the many benefits of Reishi in a 100% organic form.
