Potent medicinal mushrooms have been grown in China for hundreds of years, and to this day the most nutrient-rich mushrooms come from Chinese cultivars. For over 2,000 years, the traditions of Chinese medicine have been applied to the cultivation of these mushrooms. Mushroom cultivation in China has been so refined that farmed variants are in no way inferior to their wild-grown counterparts. Our reishi mushrooms are sourced directly from the globally-recognised mushroom-growing region of Gutian County in Fujian. Our farming partner is organically certified according to EU standards and places a high value on natural, traditional cultivation methods. The mushrooms are carefully hand harvested between July and October for maximum nutritional value.

Mushrooms are composed of the fruiting body, which typically appears above ground, and the mycelium underneath. The most important nutrients are concentrated within the fruiting body. Products derived from the mycelium are normally considerably cheaper because mycelia can be cultivated faster, cheaper, and more easily. Yet these products barely contain any of the mushroom's most valuable nutrients. Our mushroom powders and extracts are exclusively made from the entire fruiting body of the mushroom (including the stem) and contain the mushroom's full nutritional richness.

The most important nutrients within the reishi are the mushroom polysaccharides, especially beta-1,3-glucan and beta-1,6-glucan. Our mushroom extracts consolidate these compounds into a highly effective concentrate. The extract is produced according to a traditional method using only water and edible ethanol. The result is a pure and wholesome extract with absolutely no toxic extraction residues or chemical release agents (such as acetone, n-hexane, or methanol).

Reishi

Reishi, also known as lingzhi, is one of the most prominent plants in Chinese medicine. Its other names include "mushroom of immortality" and "mushroom of eternal life", which point to its significance in Chinese medicine as a foundation for general strengthening of the body and maintenance of good health and vitality.

According to historical artefacts and scripts, reishi has been used as a medicinal mushroom for approximately 4,000 years. In the 2,000-year-old Shennong Ben Cao Jing (also "Shen Long Ben Tsao"), one of the oldest known and handed-down Chinese pharmacopoeia, reishi belongs to the highest medical grade: "Divine Herbs", and is often referred to as the "King of Herbs", and the "mushroom of immortality". On account of its rarity, the reishi was for a long time only available to the emperor and other high-ranking officials. Today, reishi is one of the most popular medicinal mushrooms in the world.

Reishi grows best on the old, decaying trunks of deciduous trees such as oak and birch. The hemispherical, slightly heart-shaped cap of the reishi often has a glossy shine, as if lacquered. For this reason the mushroom is also known as the "glossy fungus" in some languages. Since the global demand for reishi far outweighs the quantity of wild-grown reishi available, this mushroom is cultivated in China.

Modern research reveals that reishi contains a whole arsenal of effective phytochemicals. It is rich in antioxidants, polysaccharides and over 100 different triterpenoids that, when taken together, form a mighty complex.

Cultivation

Our medicinal mushrooms are sourced from the renowned mushroom-growing region of Gutian County (600-700m above sea level), in Fujian, China. The cultivation of mushrooms is an age-old tradition in the region, as is reflected by the unparalleled quality of these mushrooms. The fertile land, sophisticated substrates, as well as the climate, all contribute to a uniquely nutritious end product. Moreover, these pristine lands are protected by dense mountain forests, thus providing an ideal environment for the mushrooms to thrive. Our untreated mushrooms are certified organically grown according to EU standards. They are grown to full maturity and hand-picked at the peak of their vitality, between July and October.

In order to further preserve the high concentration of beta-glucans contained in the mushrooms, the gently dried and milled fruiting bodies of the mushroom are prepared as an extract. The extract is produced according to a traditional method using only water and edible ethanol. Water-ethanol extraction has been a part of Chinese as well as Western medicine for centuries, and has long been used to create plant extracts. The result is a pure, wholesome extract with absolutely no toxic extraction residues or chemical release agents (such as acetone, n-hexane, or methanol).
