What is Reishi?
Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum), also known as the lacquered mushroom, has played a prominent role in Japanese and Chinese herbal medicine for over two thousand years. In Chinese, Reishi is often referred to as “Ling Zhi,” which stands for “herb of spiritual potency.” This mushroom is traditionally valued for its supportive role in health and the immune system. Although Reishi has a long history of traditional use, this does not automatically mean that its health benefits are recognized according to EU regulations.
