Reishi, or Ling zhi, is one of the most celebrated mushrooms in Asian culture and has been linked to longevity, immunity and mental clarity. Known as “the king of mushrooms”, Reishi mushrooms are native to parts of Asia including China, Korea and Japan. Reishi mushrooms grow above ground and develop “a fruiting body” along with connective strands called mycelium which are ground down into powder form.
These mushrooms are naturally high in vitamin D2 to build immunity and vitamin B3 to maintain energy levels and fight fatigue. They are also known to be a great source of copper and manganese which energise the body and help build immunity.
