The Reishi mushroom is called the "mushroom of immortality" in China - where it is known as Lingzhi or Ling Zhi. It was prized by Emperors of China, who valued it more highly than gold. For over 2000 years Ling Zhi has been used in Oriental medicine. In recent times this remarkable healing mushroom has been the subject of much scientific research in the Western world, though the names Ling Zhi or Reishi or Ganoderma lucidum are not yet well-known to the general public.

You'll find many scientific studies on the red Reishi mushroom by doing a web search for the words "ganoderma" or "ganoderic acids" or "Ganoderma lucidum peptides" or "Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide" at the National Library of Medicine, located at: www.pubmed.gov
