Is Reishi Coffee Good For You?
Reishi mushroom (Latin: Ganoderma Lucidum) has long been consumed as part of Asian cultures for its positive impacts on immunity and longevity, making reishi coffee an enjoyable way to combine its healthful benefits with traditional coffee drinks – giving a rich, tasty beverage suitable for many different palates and preferences. Both black and cappuccino varieties of this delicious drink exist!
Mushroom coffee combines coffee with functional mushroom extracts like lion’s mane, chaga, reishi cordyceps and turkey tail for an adaptogen boost that helps your body deal with stress naturally without overstimulating or disrupting normal function. Mushroom coffee typically contains less caffeine than regular coffee for an energy boost without the jitters.
Reishi coffee uses premium Arabica coffee that is mild in flavor and lower in acidity than Robusta coffee, and contains premium quality extract from the fruiting body of reishi mushroom called reishi powder. Reishi is an adaptogenic mushroom widely used in traditional Chinese medicine as an adaptogenic remedy, known to improve immune system health, support adrenal function, balance blood pressure levels and reduce stress levels in its users.
Reishi mushroom powder in our products comes from its fruiting body, which contains four times as many immunomodulating beta-glucans than mycelium grown on grain. This powerful immunomodulatory component allows consumers to reap all the benefits of Reishi.
