Reishi

Clinically Proven Immune & Stress Support

Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) has long been revered as the “Mushroom of Immortality” in traditional Asian wellness practices. Modern science confirms what tradition has suggested: Reishi’s unique beta-glucans (β-1,3; 1,6) can help support immune health, reduce stress-related fatigue, and promote overall well-being. Our proprietary cultivation and extraction processes ensure a Reishi extract with superior purity, potency, and consistency.

What Makes Our Reishi Extract Different?

  • Clinically Substantiated 

    While many Reishi products rely on anecdotal or minimal data, ours is backed by multiple human studies. From stress resilience to immune modulation, these clinical findings set our extract apart as an evidence-based ingredient that reliably delivers results.

  • High Beta-Glucan Potency

    We employ a specialized purification method to concentrate the critical β-1,3; 1,6 D-glucans essential for immune balance. This high-potency Reishi extract ensures you’re getting the maximum benefit that traditional Reishi is celebrated for—without unnecessary fillers or contaminants.

  • Clean & Versatile Formulation

    Grown in a contamination-free environment and extracted with cutting-edge processes, our Reishi is water-soluble and heat-stable. It integrates seamlessly into capsules, powders, functional foods, and beverages—offering a clean-label solution perfect for modern product formulations.

  • Comprehensive Safety Profile

    Thorough toxicity and allergenicity evaluations, including subchronic and genotoxicity tests, confirm our extract’s safety, even at high doses. With residual protein well below 1%, it’s suitable for most consumers concerned about mushroom sensitivities or allergic reactions.
