Its botanical name is Ganoderma lucidum. It is a mushroom, or more precisely, a fungus. The fungus grows as a parasite at the base of the roots and on dead stumps of various deciduous trees, particularly those in the maple family. In the wild, it is mainly found in warm, humid locations in Asia. Related species also come from North America, however. Reishi normally grows on only 2 or 3 of all trees. The mushroom is therefore very rare in the wild. This is why it is now widely cultivated.</p> <p>Reishi is certainly among the most revered herbs in Asia. Known there as Lingzhi, the mushroom has been used for at least 2000 years.  It is used as a universal tonic for what is known as Qi. In recent years, however, this tonic mushroom has also grown in popularity in the rest of the world. The mushroom is described as a true superfood, rich in nutrients and other secondary plant compounds. It contains various important active compounds, including polysaccharides (such as beta-glucan), sterols (ganoderol, ganoderic acid, ganoderiol, ganodermanontriol, luicidadiol, ganodermadiol) and alkaloids (<span style="text-decoration:underline;"><a style="color:#78509a;text-decoration:underline;" href="https://min.wauw.dev/media/descriptions/Phytochemistry-Paterson%255B1%255D.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">source</a></span>). Beta-glucans are currently considered the most important compounds. This is why the reishi extract in this Reishi Mushroom is standardised for its beta-glucan content.</p> <h4><span style="color:#78509a;">Reishi Mushroom from Gaia Herbs, transparent, proven quality</span></h4> <p>We are proud to have been the first to bring Gaia Herbs products to Europe and to offer you this high-quality Reishi Mushroom too.
