The Reishi mushroom is one of the most revered herbs in Traditional Chinese
Medicine (TCM). Now known as Ling zhi in China, there are references to its use
in that country as far back as 100 B.C. where it was referred to as the "Herb of
Spiritual Potency" and the "Ten-thousand Year Mushroom".
The focus of TCM is on actively promoting good health and the prevention of
health problems. Reishi is one of the most highly regarded herbs in TCM for this
purpose and the mushroom most often used as a general health tonic.
Modern clinical research also supports many of the uses for this mushroom as
described in TCM. It benefits immune health and liver function. Reishi mushroom
extracts are frequently used by mountain climbers to combat altitude sickness
and are contained in many of the performance enhancing herbal formulas used by
Chinese athletes.
Reishi is mild and warming in nature, with a bitter taste. In TCM it is used to
nourish, tonify, remove toxins and disperse accumulation. It is used as a tonic
for symptoms of weakness or debility and as a sedative for dizziness and
insomnia. All available references from TCM have Reishi prepared as a hot-water
extraction/decoction.
