Reishi

Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) is a glossy, kidney-shaped mushroom with a distinctive reddish-lacquered cap that grows on hardwood trees across Asia. Known in Chinese as lingzhi, it is one of the most storied mushrooms in East Asian heritage, traditionally prepared as a slow-simmered, notably bitter tea in wellness practices spanning centuries. At Pure Fungi, we craft Reishi into a concentrated dual-extracted extract, combining hot-water and alcohol methods to capture its naturally occurring beta-glucans, triterpenes and other polysaccharides. Reishi is the subject of ongoing research worldwide. Because Reishi is woody and intensely bitter in its raw form, we offer it as pre-measured Reishi capsules (90 x 400mg) rather than a loose powder, giving you a convenient, taste-free way to include it. Every batch is organic, vegan, non-GMO and made and lab-tested in the UK, with no fillers, in a 100% recyclable pouch.
