This effect often diminishes with consistent use as your system adapts to the traditional compounds.
What certifications does your Reishi have? +
Our Reishi mushroom extract supplement meets EU organic standards, cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practice), ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management Systems), ISO 22000 (Food Safety Management Systems), and HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points). Every batch of our organic Reishi supplements is tested in ISO 17025-accredited laboratories for additional quality verification.
How does your Reishi compare to powdered products? +
Our dual-extracted Reishi mushroom supplement concentrates the bioactive compounds, providing higher levels of ganoderic acids and beta-glucans compared to simple powder products. While powders contain fibre and other components, our Reishi extract focuses on delivering the specific compounds traditionally valued. Each 300mg Reishi capsule provides concentrated bioactives equivalent to much larger amounts of raw powder.
What's your contamination testing protocol? +
Every batch of our Reishi mushroom supplements undergoes comprehensive testing for heavy metals (including lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic), pesticide residues, microbiological contaminants, mycotoxins, and radioactivity. Our ISO 17025-accredited laboratory testing ensures each batch meets pharmaceutical-grade purity standards before release to market.
How do you verify Ganoderma lucidum authenticity? +
We conduct DNA testing and microscopic analysis to verify the authentic Ganoderma lucidum species identity. Additionally, ganoderic acid profiling confirms species authenticity, as these compounds are unique to genuine Reishi. This prevents adulteration with other species or substitute mushrooms, ensuring the integrity of every Reishi supplement.
Why do you use fruiting bodies instead of mycelium? +
Our Reishi mushroom extract supplement utilises exclusively organic fruiting bodies, the actual mushroom part that contains the highest concentrations of ganoderic acid. Mycelium products often contain grain substrate that dilutes active compounds. Fruiting bodies provide the traditional compound profile that has been valued for 4,000 years of historical use.
How should I store my Reishi extract? +
Store your Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi) mushroom extract in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly sealed and out of reach of children. Proper storage maintains the potency of ganoderic acid throughout the product’s shelf life. Our Reishi capsules have a 2-year shelf life when stored correctly under optimal conditions.
Why do you use capsules instead of powder or liquid? +
Capsules provide precise dosing, protect the Reishi extract from moisture and oxidation, and eliminate the bitter taste of ganoderic acids. Our vegetarian Reishi capsules ensure that the bioactive compounds remain stable and potent, making daily Reishi supplementation convenient and consistent, without the need for measuring or concerns about taste.
Can I open the capsules and use the powder? +
While possible, we recommend taking Reishi capsules whole for optimal potency and convenience. The capsules protect ganoderic acids from light and moisture exposure. If you prefer the Reishi mushroom extract powder, consume it immediately after opening to prevent degradation of bioactive compounds, and expect a very bitter taste from the ganoderic acids.
How does your Reishi compare to other brands? +
Our Reishi mushroom supplement stands out through complete transparency (QR code access to COA), EU organic certification, and standardised ganoderic acid content. Unlike many competitors who use Reishi grown on sawdust or provide no testing data, we guarantee specific compound levels. Our pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing and dual extraction ensure superior quality and traditional authenticity.
Do you ship globally? +
Yes, we ship our organic Reishi mushroom supplements globally from our facility in the Netherlands. All products meet EU regulatory standards and organic certification requirements. Shipping times and costs vary depending on the location. Check our shipping page for specific details for your country and current delivery options.
What's your return policy? +
We offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee on all our Reishi supplements and extracts. If you're not completely satisfied with the quality, return the product for a full refund. We stand behind our third-party testing and organic certification, confident you'll experience the difference that pharmaceutical-grade quality makes.
What's the significance of the "woody" texture in wild Reishi? +
Wild Reishi mushrooms have a woody, lacquered appearance that reflects their unique growth pattern and high concentration of ganoderic acids. This tough texture historically indicated maturity and potency. Our cultivation replicates these optimal growing conditions to ensure proper compound development, while our Reishi extract supplement concentrates these bioactives for convenient daily use.
How do ganoderic acids differ from other mushroom compounds? +
Ganoderic acids are triterpene compounds unique to Reishi mushrooms, unlike the polysaccharides made up of beta-glucans found in many mushrooms or the compounds in other species (hericenones in Lion's Mane, cordycepin in Cordyceps). These triterpenes give Reishi its distinctive bitter taste and traditional applications in balance and longevity practices, now concentrated in our Reishi supplements.
Why was Reishi more valuable than gold historically? +
Wild Reishi mushrooms were so rare - growing on only 2–3 trees per 10,000 in optimal conditions - that they were more valuable than gold in ancient China. Emperors sent expeditions specifically to find them, and successful harvests were considered divine blessings. Today, our organic Reishi mushroom supplements continue this tradition in a modern, accessible form.
How does altitude affect Reishi potency? +
Wild Reishi mushrooms growing at higher altitudes typically develop higher concentrations of ganoderic acid due to environmental stress. Our controlled cultivation replicates these optimal stress conditions through temperature and humidity management, ensuring consistent high-potency compound development across all Reishi supplements.
What's the difference between red and other colored Reishi varieties? +
Red Reishi mushrooms (Ganoderma lucidum) contain the highest levels of ganoderic acid and have the most extensive traditional use history. While black, yellow, and other varieties exist, red Reishi is considered the most potent and traditionally valuable. Our Reishi mushroom supplement is made exclusively from red Ganoderma lucidum for authentic traditional applications.
How do you maintain traditional preparation wisdom in modern extraction? +
Our dual Reishi extract process honours traditional preparation methods — ancient practitioners used both water decoctions and alcohol tinctures to capture different compounds. We’ve modernised these techniques using pharmaceutical-grade equipment while maintaining the same extraction principles that preserved Reishi’s traditional supplement benefits for millennia.
Can I take Reishi if I'm sensitive to bitter tastes? +
Our encapsulated Reishi mushroom extract capsules eliminate taste concerns while preserving the ganoderic acids responsible for traditional benefits. The capsules mask the natural bitterness, making Reishi supplementation pleasant while maintaining the authentic compound profile traditional preparations would have provided.
What's the environmental impact of cultivated vs wild Reishi? +
Cultivated organic Reishi mushrooms protect wild populations while providing sustainable access to traditional benefits. Wild harvesting threatens rare ecosystems and often yields inconsistent quality. Our controlled organic cultivation requires minimal environmental resources while ensuring consistent ganoderic acid levels across all Reishi supplements and protecting natural habitats.
How do you standardise for traditional potency? +
We standardise our Reishi mushroom extract supplement to a minimum 2% ganoderic acids, reflecting the compound levels found in high-quality traditional preparations. This ensures each batch of Reishi supplements provides consistent potency rather than variable compound levels common in non-standardised products.
Why do some people call Reishi a "superfood"? +
While we focus on traditional applications rather than modern marketing terms, Reishi’s 4,000-year history of use, unique ganoderic acid profile, and extensive scientific research on its traditional compounds have made it popular in wellness communities. Our organic Reishi mushroom supplement provides the authentic compound profile that earned this reputation.
