REISHI

Think of Reishi as nature’s Xanax.

This favoured fungus is one of the most popular medicinal mushrooms, and for good reason. Reishi may be able to do it all: aid in weight loss, keep the immune system. in check, and may even fiercely fight cancer cells.

What makes this mushroom unique, however, is its calming properties, all of which are thanks to the compound triterpene, of which reishi has its fair share. This mood-boosting compound may alleviate anxiety, ease depression, and encourage better sleep.

But triterpenes’ positive effect on the nervous system doesn’t stop there.

Reishi can promote healing and sharpen focus, too.

 

Reishi can help with:

• sleep

• anxiety

• depression

• focus
