Functional Foods - Reishi Mushrooms

from Today’s Gut Health Tip · host Melissa Hall Klepacki, M.Ac.

Reishi mushrooms are among several medicinal mushrooms that have been used for hundreds of years, mainly in Asian countries, for treatment of infections. More recently, they have also been used in the treatment of pulmonary diseases and cancer. According to Dr OZ: they are frequently referred to as the “herb of immortality.” Because of Its dynamic antioxidant action and immune-stimulating effects Reishi are known to be antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antiparasitic, and anti-tumor. Reishi stabilizes blood pressure, protects the liver, and supports general immune resistance. This means that reishi is particularly useful for individuals with compromised immune systems Mushrooms are adaptogenic in nature WHICH MEANS the  benefits come from regulating the body's organs and functions. Reishi contains over 200 active ingredients and unique compounds that are the most biologically active obtainable from any plant source. In order to obtain maximum benefit, reishi is best taken as an extract because it is a very tough, woody mushroom and very difficult to digest. Just a heads up because these mushrooms are fungi – if you have mold allergies or issues please talk to your doctor before taking this supplement Here's the one I like: http://bit.ly/GuudReishi
