Reishi Mushroom Supreme - Reishi-Astragalus Compound Herbal Formula Enhances Immune Resistance
Planetary Formulas Reishi Mushroom Supreme contains some of the finest of all
Chinese herbs for supporting immune defenses. This modern formulation is designed
to provide a wide range of adaptogenic and immune-supporting activity from the
most highly regarded tonifiers of the ancients. The addition of world-renowned
tonics and adaptogens, such as astragalus and Eleutherococcus senticosus, makes
Reishi Mushroom Supreme an ancient treasure for modern health.
Reishi: Botanical Immune Support
Reishi mushroom is one of the most highly prized botanicals of Chinese herbalism.
Traditionally it was used as a general tonifier for preserving health and promoting
longevity, as well as for promoting mental well-being. Reishi has been shown
to support general and specific immune resistance in modern animal and in vitro
studies.
Beneficial Constituents of Reishi Mushroom Supreme
Modern pharmacological research has identified more than 100 oxygenated lanostane
triterpenes in the reishi fruiting body and mycelium (the immature but most
active growth stage of the mushroom before the fruiting body is developed).
The mycelia also contain several constituents that are not present in the mature
fruiting body, including triterpenoids, polysaccharides, sterones and an unsaturated
fatty acid. Reishi Mushroom Supreme combines a highly concentrated extract of
the mature fruiting body with the mycelia biomass, to ensure a broad spectrum
of reishi constituents.
Wide Range of Adaptogens
To further augment and enhance the effects of reishi, Planetary Formulas has
added a range of tonifiers and adaptogenic herbs, many of which are legendary
in their own right. Adaptogens are defined as substances that enhance general
adaptive response. They increase resistance against external stressors, have
a balancing effect and stabilize normal body functions.
- Shiitake Mushroom is revered throughout Asia as a tonifying mushroom. It
is used both as a food and for its health-promoting benefits.
- Siberian Ginseng is one of the most widely researched of all the tonic herbs.
It is the primary botanical adaptogen used to enhance the body's ability to
adapt to physical and psychological stresses and changes.
- Astragalus is one of the primary immune tonifiers of Chinese herbalism.
- Grifola and Poria Cocos are two more polysaccharide-rich polypores of high
repute.
