The Reishi mushroom has been used for hundreds of years in Eastern medicine. This fungus is usually eaten fresh, in powder form, or in liquid extracts.
Within Reishi mushrooms, there are numerous beneficial molecules such as peptidoglycans, triterpenoids, and polysaccharides. Through these molecules, Reishi is known to strengthen the immune system and believed to help the body adapt to occasional stress. As a result, Reishi is the top-selling adaptogenic mushroom in the world.*
