Ganoderma lucidum, popularly referred to in China and Japan as Lingzhi and Reishi respectively, has long been used as a herbal remedy to improve health and treat diseases for over 2000 years in China and other Asian nations. Modern scientific research and clinical trials have confirmed this traditional Chinese view and provided solid support for its continued usage today.

Ganoderma lucidum has long been considered an invaluable herb, offering numerous health advantages. From powerful anti-ageing properties to helping strengthen immunity against diseases and infections more efficiently. Reishi has also long been used as an antioxidant source, supporting healthy blood pressure levels and cholesterol levels.

G. lucidum contains several bioactive constituents, including polysaccharides, triterpenoids and sterols that have proven their bioactivity – these bioactive compounds possess various medicinal benefits including antioxidant activity, anti-decrepitude effects (extending life), immunomodulatory activities as well as cancer, antiviral, hypertension control and diabetes prevention activities. Studies have confirmed this.

Ganoderma’s anti-aging properties stem from its ability to scavenge free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS produced by normal cell metabolism can be detrimental, leading to cancer, cardiovascular disease, or simply contributing to premature aging.

Fungus polysaccharide compounds have also been shown to prevent cancer cell growth and tumor metastasis by stimulating immune cells and restricting cancer cell proliferation and differentiation, as well as its anti-diabetic properties which include its ability to boost pancreatic beta cell secretions of insulin while increasing glucose uptake by those cells, leading to decreased blood sugar in diabetics.

Our Reishi comes from a trusted, certified organic grower in China that harvests only premium mushrooms. Only OG has developed a process that gently cracks open its shell without crushing any of the tender spores inside.

Producing precious “king” of coffee requires costly production processes that take precise planning. Spores must be harvested when still soft and have maximum potency before being protected with an outer hard shell for nourishment and protection. While other companies use plastic bags or crushing to harvest their reishi, OG employs a proprietary process which allows the delicate spores to fully absorb and release health-promoting compounds for maximum effectiveness.

To do this, we carefully harvest organic reishi in small batches and only select the finest and tenderest spores to create our Premium Organo Gold King of Coffee instant coffee blend. This yields a strong yet robust instant coffee mix that mixes easily with water or milk and serves as an easy way to get daily doses of reishi into your day – just choose certified organic and log-harvested varieties to guarantee top-grade spores!
