Dried Reishi Mushrooms - 16 oz. (1 lb.) Life Gourmet Shop

Great quality Red Reishi! I use this to make a tea, ground up in my slow cooker on low for or 24 hours. Then store in the frig when needed. The ground up Red Reishi can be reused a couple more times. When you see the water is clear you know the Red Reishi is spent.You can always soak the spent Red Reishi in 80 proof alchol to extract what the water could not extract.If your new to Red Reishi start off with a low dose like an ounce and work your way up. Make sure and see how your body feels. Red Reishi is very potent. You might start to see detox symptoms since your body is trying to remove all the garbage stored in it. The detox symptoms will subside after a couple of days. You can also take vitamin C with the red reishi to help it absorb better. I use a natural source of vitamin C called Camu Camu from Terrasoul Foods brand instead of synthetic absorbic acid.After 6 weeks of use, give your body a week to rest from it. After 3 days of taking it you might notice better sleep and more energy. I felt it right away!I usually drink 2 ounces on an empty stomach first thing in the morning. And feel my energy go up as well as my heart rate making me feel good. And then I take 2 ounces an hour before bed. You will notice great mental clarity and well being!Again it is very potent. Start slowly so your body can get used to the Red Reishi. Make sure your not on any prescription drugs like blood thinners or blood pressure medicine while taking, which might counteract the health benefits, and cause side effects. Those side effects are due to the prescription medicines and not Reishi. Red Reishi is like medicine, and will change your health and life :)

great product, easy to process with a coffee grinder. Actually like the taste. Even better with ginger kombucha for a refreshing drink. I'm trying to replace way more expensive reishi capsules.For now i'll cut back on the capsules and see if the combination is as effective with my carpal tunnel symptoms

Made an extract with these by simmering in a crockpot for 8 hours and reducing the liquid down to 16 oz. poured one ounce into each ice cube tray and froze. Lasts as long as you need and all you have to do is pop one ice cube into some hot water once a day and you have an ounce of reishi in your system ;) It was a very bitter tea(which is a good thing!)!!! Very pleased!

get what is advertised

This error falls on me I suppose. I thought I did enough research, but apparently I did not. These are useless and are completely inedible. I have to put a lot of time and effort into these to do anything with them at all. I should've either bought the powder form or the liquid form. Definitely a waste.

I'm a returning customer. I've never been one to drink regular coffees or teas, which affects me in negative ways. I was introduced to tea made from Reishi mushrooms, from something that I read, and I fell in love with it. The extra energy that it gives me is amazing...

An absolute failure...Left 24 hrs, then tried 48 hrs in water.... never soften...Unable to use them for anything.... a true waste of money....

Good quality Reishi. Whole Reishi and powdered Reishi is very hard to process so it is nice that this is sliced thinly. Tastes potent, good bitterness, and makes a dark tea. Have used this mushroom for years for many reasons and this is a very good source.
