Product info:
The lingzhi mushroom or reishi mushroom is a species complex that encompasses several fungal species of the genus Ganoderma. The reishi mushroom enjoys special veneration in East Asia, where it has been used as a medicinal mushroom in Traditional Chinese Medicine for more than 2,000 years, making it one of the oldest mushrooms known to have been used medicinally.
Its use has also been explored as a complementary adjunct treatment in patients undergoing chemotherapy treatment. A recent meta-analysis of five randomized control trials showed that patients responded more positively when given reishi mushroom supplementation alongside their chemotherapy regimen, and the studies also showed that patients had improved immune functions that was measured by their elevated levels of immune response cells.
Anti-Allergic /Anti-Inflammatory Activity: Studies showed that Reishi extract significantly inhibited all four types of allergic reactions, including positive effects against asthma and contact dermatitis and effectively used in treating stiff necks, stiff shoulders, conjunctivitis (inflammation of the fine membrane lining the eye and eyelids), bronchitis, rheumatism and improving „competence“ of the immune system without any significant side-effects.
