Product Details
Reishi is a hard, woody-type mushroom that grows on old trees and tree stumps in many parts of the world including northern Europe, the eastern United States, Asia and Canada. Reishi has long been revered as anti-aging, possessing an extremely broad range of health benefits. It has been used daily as an immune strengthener as well as for many diseases and disorders, including chronic pneumonia, rheumatism, asthma, liver disease and cancer. Reishi also seems to work particularly well with certain organs and conditions that may affect them, these include: heart, liver, lungs and kidneys. Studies have shown that reishi has the ability to regulate or balance the immune system, whether the immune system is overactive in the case of autoimmune diseases or underactive in the case of chronic illness.
Researchers also noted that reishi supports our T-cells in attacking tumors, inhibits the growth of human leukemic cells and helps to re-establish normal levels of white blood cells. Reishi has been shown in studies to help 80% of people with heart problems, reducing and balancing cholesterol, lowering blood-pressure in as little as 10 days and lowering platelet aggregation, which reduces the incidence of blood clots and strokes as well as migraines. Reishi's ability to calm the body and regulate energy appears to be the key to its affect on blood-pressure, the immune system and ultimately how long that system will last. Japanese research demonstrates the effectiveness of reishi mushroom on inhibiting histamine release, which means it is useful in the treatment of Type 1 allergies, including anaphylactic shock, atopic dermatitis, hay fever, hives, drug allergies and bronchial asthma. When it comes to sleep disorders, reishi's calming effect can help people off to sleep, giving them freedom from the usual nagging thoughts that prevent them from sleeping. Research also shows that taking reishi before bed can help increase the most restful sleep, which is gained in the REM stage (Rapid Eye Movement). Reishi also helps regenerate and protect the liver from toxicity.
Researchers say that "Reishi appears to accelerate the clearance of drugs from the system through its effect on the liver." This helps to explain why it is prescribed in Chinese medicine for mushroom poisoning and chronic hepatitis. In a three-month clinical study, acute hepatitis-B patients showed significant improvement even from the first month of treatment. Reishi is a supplement that can be taken on a daily basis.
