Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) — Cracked Spore Extract

The 'mushroom of immortality'. Triterpene-rich cracked-spore extract.

About this product

Cracked-cell-wall reishi spore extract. The cell wall is the limiting factor — uncracked spores pass through digestion intact. Cracked-spore products preserve the triterpenes (ganoderic acids) that drive most of reishi's documented adaptogenic activity.

Ingredients

  • Cracked-cell-wall reishi spore extract

Suggested use
