The majority of vitamins are not produced by the body and must be obtained from food or taken as supplements. Generally speaking, a balanced diet that includes enough fruit and vegetables will supply all the vitamins the body needs to remain at optimal health. However, using supplements may be necessary to assist the body during periods of stress, fatigue, illness or in other situations.\u003cquillbot-extension-portal\u003e\u003c\/quillbot-extension-portal\u003e","published_at":"2022-04-15T19:56:39+10:00","sort_order":"best-selling","template_suffix":"nutrition-menu-collection","disjunctive":false,"rules":[{"column":"type","relation":"starts_with","condition":"N-VIT-"}],"published_scope":"web","image":{"created_at":"2022-10-16T22:49:37+11:00","alt":null,"width":2000,"height":2600,"src":"\/\/www.foodthymedicine.com.au\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/V-Vitamin-4.jpg?v=1667783619"}}]
Reishi, known by ancient herbalists as the "mushroom of immortality," has been used for centuries in Chinese medicine to support a strong immune system and foster a positive reaction to stress. Reishi, a well-known Shen tonic, is advised to quiet and balance the spirit as well as improve the quality of sleep.
It is one of those unique herbs that works on all Three Treasures (Jing, Qi, and Shen), as well as all five Daoist organ systems, strengthening the Heart, Kidneys, Lungs, and Liver.
Reishi is referred to as ling zhi in China, which translates to "spirit plant" or "tree of life mushroom."
Reishi is incredibly scarce in the wild and was originally only used by emperors and other members of the aristocracy. The reishi mushroom, which has been immortalised throughout Chinese art, including temples, statues, and paintings, was held in the greatest regard by Chinese royalty and has been the subject of several legends over the past four millennia. The goddess of healing, Kuan Yin, was occasionally shown holding a reishi mushroom. This polypore was highly esteemed in the East and frequently placed above doorways as a protector.
Beta-glucans and more than 100 different kinds of polysaccharides are abundant in reishi. The components in reishi that give it its bitter flavour are called triterpenes. We dual-extract SuperFeast Reishi since ethanol and hot water are the only methods for obtaining triterpenes.
