Red Reishi Mushroom

---

Reishi mushrooms have been used for thousands of years in Chinese medicine and other parts of Asia. Recently the Western world has caught on and began using them for their powerful health benefits, including fighting fatigue, increasing energy, protecting your heart, improving your immune  system, benefiting your digestion and protecting against cancer.

Teas and hot water extracts from Red Reishi Mushrooms result in bitter yellow/gold/brown liquid that instantly provides a boost the moment it is consumed; partly due to its strong taste. It can be brewed at a lower strength by using less mushrooms in the water until acclimated to the flavor. Traditionally the whole mushroom, not pieces, were boiled for teas but this concoction is extremely potent and not for the uninitiated. Start with small pieces and work the dosage up.

This mushrooms growth pattern is so strong and solid it is starting to be used as a biodegradable replacement for Styrofoam, insulation, and building materials. This is one tough mushroom! Its resilience as well as its lacquered sheen represent this mushrooms ability to strengthen us in addition to keeping us looking young and vibrant, which scientific studies have many times shown to be the case.
