Benefits of Reishi Tincture

Stress Balance

Our hormones send messages throughout virtually every system of the body, to signal appropriate reactions to our environment. When this system of communication goes down, our bodies can misinterpret the cues in our environment, causing dysfunctional overreactions to everyday stressors. Reishi’s adaptogenic properties help to promote balanced hormones for a resilient stress response.

Adaptogen 

A diverse array of herbal and fungi medicines are classified as adaptogens. Their non-toxic, normalizing effect on the body may help to restore normal physiologic function and protect the body from stress-induced dysfunction.

Immune Support

The immune system is made up of innate responses (defend against and isolate threats in the body), and adaptive responses (attack specific pathogens to destroy them). Reishi promotes the development of lymphocytes, the cells responsible for producing antibodies to fight off infection, and the cytokines which communicate with surrounding cells.

FAQs

What is Reishi?

Reishi is a mushroom native to warm, humid environments in Asia. It’s called a “bracket” mushroom for its quality of growing caps horizontally out of the trunks of its host trees. Reishi, or Lingzhi, has been popular in Eastern medicine for thousands of years for its adaptogenic properties.

When should I consume Reishi?

It is best to consume Reishi in the evening after a meal to take advantage of its anti-anxiety properties before bed.

What is a tincture?

A tincture is a concentrated liquid extract that's made by soaking mushrooms in a solvent—typically alcohol and/or hot water. This process unlocks the active ingredients in the mushrooms, leaving you with a potent liquid that can be dosed with a pipette. Tinctures offer a concentrated, immediate way to incorporate functional fungi like Reishi into your routine.

What does a Reishi tincture taste like?

Reishi has a mild, earthy taste. Our alcohol-based tincture has a more potent flavor, where our glycerin-based (alcohol free) tincture has a sweet taste (sugar-free).

How are Forage tinctures extracted?

We use industry-leading Ultrasonic Extraction technology to produce high potency extracts that feature all of the fungi’s health-promoting polysaccharides, triterpenes and vitamins. This method is the most efficient at breaking down mushroom cell walls to release active compounds contained in them, delivering a potent and bioavailable liquid extract.

Can I use more than one mushroom tincture at a time?

Yes! But we do recommend starting with one mushroom tincture at the recommended daily dosage for up to two weeks to see how your body responds before adding another tincture to your routine.
